Hotels on Texel

Numerous hotels on the island of Texel can be found at www.hotels.nl/texel/

We would recommend the following hotels to our visitors:

Hotel Den Burg

Hotel Den Burg is located at the traffic ring around the village.

The address is:

Hotel Den Burg (owner fam. Eshuys)
Emmalaan 4-6
1791 HV Den Burg (Texel)
Tel: 0222-31 21 06; fax: 0222-32 20 53
International: +31 222 312 106; fax: +31 222 32 20 53

By car: Leave the ferry and drive straight in the direction of ‘Den Burg’ until the roundabout near the village (about 6 km distance). Here, you turn right into the village. After approx. 0.5 km the road makes a 120º right turn, and after another 0.5 km it makes a 135º left turn. Just after this left turn there is a small road on your left hand (at 90º). This gives access to the parking lot of hotel den Burg, which is located slightly (approx. 50 m) further along the main road that you have left, also on your left hand. If you missed this small road on your left, you will pass the hotel on the main road, but you can drive back by making a full circle on the roundabout just after the hotel (at the VW garage ‘De Texelse Autocentrale’).

By bus: At the ferry terminal of Texel, leave the ferry on the right hand side and you will automatically see the bus terminal. From there, take Conexxion bus 28 with destination ‘De Koog via Den Burg’. The village of Den Burg is located centrally on the island about 7 km from the ferry harbour. The bus stop where you have to go out is the first stop after the main bus terminal in Den Burg (named ‘De Elemert’). When the bus departs again from the main terminal, it turns sharply left onto the Emmalaan. Then you first see a green field on your left hand side and after about 300 m there are again some buildings. The bus passes the hotel and the next bus stop is located just after the roundabout onto which you arrive just after the bus has passed the hotel. This bus stop is called ‘De negenennegentig (The 99)’. From there you walk about 150 m back to the hotel.

By bus: At the ferry terminal of Texel, leave the ferry on the right hand side and you will automatically see the bus terminal. From there, take Connexxion bus 28 with destination ‘De Koog via Den Burg’. The village of Den Burg is located centrally on the island about 7 km from the ferry harbour. The bus stop where you have to go out is the main bus terminal in Den Burg (called ‘De Elemert’). Once you got out, you continue your way in the direction you arrived by bus. This is into the centre of the village. When you have passed two crossroads at a short distance from each other you arrive at the beginning of a large square (de Groeneplaats); on your left-hand side you have at that moment the optician’s shop of J. Winnubst. On the other side of the square, you can now see a large white stately old building with a conservatory on its left side. This is hotel ‘De Lindeboom’.

By car: Leave the ferry and drive straight in the direction of ‘Den Burg’ until the roundabout near the village (about 7 km distance). Here, you turn right into the village. After approx. 0.5 km the road makes a 120º right turn. In this curve, you can turn left twice; you have to take the second possibility in the direction ‘Centrum’. Then you will pass the main bus station on your left-hand side. Drive straight on and you will pass two crossroads at a short distance from each other before you arrive at a T-crossing at the beginning of a large square (de Groeneplaats). At that moment, you have on your left-hand side the optician’s shop J. Winnubst. On the other side of the square, you can now see a large white stately old building with a conservatory on its left side. This is hotel ‘De Lindeboom Texel’. Turn left at the T-crossing and you will automatically enter the parking area on the left-hand side of the hotel (coins for the operation of the barrier can be obtained from the hotel reception when you want to leave again).
