GREETINGS FROMHarbor Hotel
TURN OVER ↻
On our way to the beautiful village of Arbreville, we stopped for the night. Ann Biesma welcomed us to the Harbor Hotel with open arms. What a lovely woman! We would have given it 5 stars, but a certain Herman threw us out because we were making too much noise. It was 4 in the afternoon!

Check in

Dieter

Dieter is a special young man. He never had a good relationship with his father; quite the opposite. On top of all the bullying and insults he had to put up with at school, he was also abused at home by his own father, Herman. The only person who could still cheer him up was his beloved mother, Ann. Sadly, even that last bit of comfort was taken from him. Ann was found dead in the hotel. As the new manager of the Harbor Hotel, Dieter finds his whole world turned upside down.

In this live escape room you take over Dieter’s tasks!

With or without a live actor

At TheStart we understand everyone has their own preference for the escape room experience. That’s why you can now also play our exciting escape room without a live actor.

You choose this option while booking. It’s perfect for teams who would rather play without the extra intensity of a live actor, but still want to enjoy the challenging puzzles and the gripping story of the Harbor Hotel. The escape room keeps all its mystery and tension.

I'm pregnant

Harbor Hotel can be played without an actor, which makes the experience calmer and less intense. The safest choice is the Undercover Skill Facility. Playing anyway? Mention it clearly when you book, so we can take extra care.

What should I wear?

Wear comfortable shoes and clothes. Sometimes you have to crawl or climb. A tight suit is less suitable.

Someone is ill

Sometimes your team can’t be complete. Up to 6 hours before the start time you can move or change the booking yourself, with the link in your confirmation email.
