Hotel Wyllandrie

Why choose to volunteer at our place?? We are Fun, Relax, Easy Going and a great team to work with 😊 Also our hotel is in a relax layback area where you can easily hike or ride a bike.

The hotel is at the city border of Ootmarsum, this is a very artistic small city in the area “Twente”. Some places in the area are Almelo (17 KM) Hengelo (24 KM) Enschede (26 KM). Our capital city Amsterdam is at 164 KM distance..

Hi There,
I’m Eric, the manager of Hotel Wyllandrie. In 2017 we have started with the exploitation of this beautiful place.. In the years before us the hotel was used as an refugee Centre for 2 years and before this it was an hotel which went bankrupt.

At this moment the hotel is being owned by a few occasional investors, just private people who bought the hotel together to avoid it being a housing for migrant workers. This place is just too great for not being a hotel.

Due to the point that the investors are not a big investment company but just some “normal” people who invested there savings to buy the place, we try to renovate and run the hotel with low costs and with a helping hand. Together we are making the place great again 😉

So we are looking for enthusiastic volunteers who love to join our team and help us running the hotel

Ootmarsum es un pueblo muy pintoresco lleno de galerĂ­as de arte, estatuas por todos lados y buena gente, perfecto si te gusta el arte y la naturaleza. Tengo que dar las gracias a todos los voluntarios, trabajadores y anfitriones por hacer mas fĂĄcil mi estancia😉 Pd: la comida es escasa, tendrĂ©is que comprar mĂĄs seguro

This has been my first worldpackers experience and I can't say anything but words of gratitude to the entire the hotel team and especially to Eric for his infinite patience and willingness, and to Gabriel who was a fantastic host showing us around and also becoming a good friend. The town of Ootmarsum is a perfect place to spend a quiet period surrounded by nature and work at the hotel is quite easy and organized. I am leaving very happy with the experience and grateful for the good times :) :) :)

Hosts are respectful, clear and everything was as communicated: rooms are more than good, food is fine & the rest of the team is nice people. The town itself is lovely. Housekeeping is definitely the most “hard” activity, the tasks werent difficult but somehow the expectations on it are too high for a volunteering activity, it felt more like a part-time job (which isnt necessarily a bad thing, just something to be considered when choosing it). One of the employees is definitely a difficult person to work with, but if you're stayin for a short period, its maneagable.

I really liked the experience at the hotel, it was very quiet in my private room near the forest. The co-workers were very friendly and helped me with everything I needed. Eric is a very kind person who was always looking out for me. Thanks a lot!!! :)
