Niel 71 Suite

NIEL 71 Suite is a refined private retreat in Kerniel, set in the rolling landscape of Haspengouw. A warm, thoughtfully designed place with a private sauna, fully equipped kitchen, spacious terrace and a view over the meadows where horses, miniature donkeys and goats quietly live out their day.

Not a hotel. Not a B&B. Simply a special place — made to slow down, to feel, and to truly enjoy. Every detail has been chosen with care. Every morning begins with the rhythm of nature.

Within walking and cycling distance of Tongeren, Borgloon and the fruit region. Tongeren is 20 minutes away, Maastricht 40 minutes.

Here, you don't have to do anything. You can simply be.

What makes NIEL 71 Suite special
A home with a soul, not a hotel
This isn't a room in a row of rooms. It's our home, with a suite alongside it — built with as much love as a home deserves. You feel the difference the moment you step in.

Handmade ceramics, everywhere you look
Everything you touch in the suite — tableware, small details — is handmade by Dominique herself, in her studio nearby. Not art to admire from a distance, but objects to truly live with.

Fresh sourdough bread, every morning
Each morning, the house fills with the scent of freshly baked sourdough, made with care for breakfast. On some Saturdays, you can get your own hands into the dough, during a simple sourdough workshop — no rush, just learning how it's done.

In the heart of Haspengouw's living landscape
No scenery, just real nature right outside the door. Horses, miniature donkeys and goats live quietly in the meadows around the house — a rhythm you're welcome to feel here, every morning anew.

Genuine, personal hospitality
No protocol, no front desk. Dominique and Marco welcome you themselves, with real attention — and step back just as genuinely whenever you want time to yourselves.

Privacy without losing warmth
A private sauna, your own terrace, a garden — entirely for you. Space and quiet, without ever feeling cold.
