Hotels in Overijssel, Netherlands

Overijssel is a province in the eastern Netherlands, famous for its canal networks and the picturesque village of Giethoorn, often called the 'Venice of the North.' The climate is mild year-round, with warm summers (around 70°F / 21°C) perfect for punting through the narrow canals or cycling through the Salland countryside past medieval castles like Huis Doorn, and cool winters (averaging 35°F / 2°C) when you can ice skate on frozen canals or explore the indoor markets in Zwolle's historic center. For a different vibe, head to the Weerribben-Wieden National Park-paddle a kayak through reed beds in summer or hike the boardwalks in autumn's crisp air.
