A refreshing and surprising stay
The strength of this special Hotel ten Cate really lies in its personal approach. As soon as you enter, you experience the hospitality of Drenthe. You feel that the personal approach is genuine and this makes you feel welcome and at ease. First impressions count! This feeling continues to prevail. The fact that guests appreciate this can also be seen on social media. The hotel receives praise, nice reactions to posts about the staff and support for the hotel. This family hotel is now run by Niels and Jasper ten Cate. The hotel's appearance suits people living in the area or visiting Emmen well. There is plenty to do like walking or cycling, visiting WILDLANDS or playing golf. The hotel is also within walking distance of the city centre. We are proud to be working with a company that has such a good name in the region.
Combination of styles
The combination of stately furniture, toyism on the walls (an art movement) and atmospheric accessories make the hotel popular with young and old alike. The restaurant, too, is impressive. The most delicious dishes are prepared here. There is a changing monthly menu. Regional products are used and every dish is prepared with a portion of love. Yes, Chef Rob and his kitchen staff challenge your taste buds here. All this makes Hotel ten Cate popular. Wildly popular, in fact!

Hotel ten Cate was recently taken over by Niels and Jasper, the sons of former owner Hans. This means there is a touch of modernisation going through the hotel. For instance, the indoor garden has been revamped and the website translated into 3 languages; namely German, English and French. We will also focus Facebook and Google ads campaigns on our German neighbours. After all, Emmen is close to the border. Furthermore, they want to show this more modern vibe online and so we are adapting the social media strategy accordingly. This promises something...
