Welcome to Hotel ten Cate, a beautifully situated hotel in Emmen near the centre and close to Wildlands. With us, you will experience Drenthe hospitality in a unique hotel that is also characterised by quality, cosiness, and the ultimate culinary enjoyment. Moreover, you will discover an artistic ambiance here that is second to none. The colourful hotel is home to Toyism, an art movement founded by the Dutch artist Dejo.
You'll see our hotel on the outskirts of Emmen's town centre from a distance. This is because the exterior of our hotel is decorated in the Toyism style. This art movement aims to connect with the world of children's experiences, but adults are also indirectly drawn to it. On each side of the hotel, you can see an imaginative representation of what you can expect within our hotel. For example, on the front, you'll see a loving couple depicted through culinary delights, highlighting the enjoyment you can experience in our restaurant.
On the south and north sides of our hotel in Emmen, you'll discover the ‘sleeping beauty’ and what she's dreaming about. The hippopotamus, ducks, and banana transformed into a monkey tell us she's dreaming about the nearby Wildlands Adventure Zoo Emmen. Within sight and walking distance of our hotel, you'll feel like a true globetrotter. You can embark on fantastic expeditions through the jungle, the Arctic, and the savannah. Additionally, during your visit, a ride on the Tweestryd attraction is a must. This is the longest Family Boomerang in the world. On this double steel roller coaster, you'll duel at a top speed of 60 kilometres per hour at a maximum height of no less than 20 metres. Do you dare to take a ride?
Also on the south side of the hotel, you will find the depicted sheep, which refer to what is possibly the oldest village in the Netherlands: Noordbarge. Noordbarge is now a district of Emmen, but that does nothing to detract from its special history. Directly opposite our hotel, you will therefore find yourself in an idyllic setting with beautiful village greens and equally beautiful farmhouses in a wooded environment. In addition to the sheep, you will also see a gingerbread man depicted standing in front of his procession oven. The hen is laying an egg, and the chocolate-brown cow also shows you the delicious dishes that our hotel in Emmen has to offer.
We have 57 hotel rooms, all characterised by comfort and distinguished by their unique interior styles. For example, if you can't get enough of Toyism, we have furnished a few wonderful art rooms especially for you. Would you prefer a classic hotel room? You've also come to the right place at Hotel ten Cate for that. The same applies to our family rooms, where you are guaranteed a super fun time with your family.

Of course, you can also send an email to [email protected] or call +31 (0)591 617 600.
Hotel ten Cate also offers the most atmospheric restaurant in the Emmen region, where you can fully enjoy a wealth of high-quality dishes. We work with pure passion for our craft and with the very best ingredients, often sourced from our local region. We serve French-oriented “Dutch cuisine” with a special focus on vegetables. As a result, the main ingredient in our dishes is not meat, fish, poultry, or game, but rather you will find the ideal balance on your plate. In this way, we strive to elevate the culinary level of Southeast Drenthe at our hotel in Emmen. However, don't think you'll be paying a premium for this. We also offer the best value for money in terms of culinary experience.

Receptions are also regularly held here, where all sorts of conversations take place. Should it start raining or get cold outside?
