- Capacity: up to 8 people
- Size: approximately 18 m²
- Setup: boardroom style
- Hours: daily on request between 08:00 and 20:00

Built-in equipment for calls and presentations
The room includes the core tools most teams need:
- 55″ screen

- High-speed Wi‑Fi
If you plan to run a video call, the most important point is simple: bring your own laptop. You can then connect it to the screen and use the speakerphone for the meeting.
How to use the 55″ screen for your meeting
The 55″ screen helps everyone in the room see the same content clearly. For video conferencing, that usually means showing the meeting window, a presentation, shared documents, or a dashboard.
Connection options
You can connect your laptop using:
- HDMI
- USB-C
These two connection types cover many modern business laptops. If your device needs an adapter, HDMI/USB-C adapters are available for rent with a €10.00 deposit.
Basic setup steps
Use this simple process when you arrive:
- Place your laptop at the table where you can work comfortably.
- Connect your laptop to the 55″ screen using HDMI or USB-C.
- Select the correct input on your laptop or display settings if needed.
- Open your video conferencing platform on your laptop.
- Share your screen if you want remote participants to see slides or documents.
- Position the meeting window so in-room attendees can follow the conversation easily.
In practice, the 55″ screen is useful even beyond video calls. It can support:
- Slide decks
- Agendas
- Live note-taking
- Spreadsheets
- Design reviews
- Collaborative discussion with remote attendees
How to use the speakerphone for video conferencing
For any hybrid meeting, clear audio matters as much as picture quality. The room includes a speakerphone so participants in the room and participants online can hear each other more clearly.
What the speakerphone does
The speakerphone is intended to support:
- Room audio output for remote voices
- Voice pickup from people seated around the table
That setup is especially useful in a boardroom configuration, where several people may need to contribute during the same call.
Best way to get started
To use the speakerphone effectively:
- Connect and launch your meeting on your own laptop.
- Select the speakerphone in your conferencing app’s audio settings if prompted.
- Run a quick sound check before the call begins.
- Ask one remote participant to confirm they can hear the room clearly.
- Keep side conversations to a minimum during the meeting for cleaner audio.
Because the room seats a maximum of 8 people, it is well matched to smaller meetings where everyone needs to participate without the complexity of a large conference setup.
Wi‑Fi, workspace comfort, and practical room features
A strong video call depends on more than a screen and speakerphone. Reliable connectivity and a comfortable room setup also matter.
High-speed Wi‑Fi
Free high-speed Wi‑Fi of approximately 300 Mbps is available in the meeting room. The guest network is:
- SSID:
Zilversluis-Guest - Encryption: WPA2
This helps support common meeting tasks such as:
- Video conferencing
- Cloud-based presentations
- File access
- Email and messaging during sessions
Room comfort and working conditions
The meeting room also includes:
- Air conditioning
- Daylight
- Blackout possible
- Whiteboard and markers
These details make a difference. Daylight keeps the room pleasant for daytime meetings, while blackout capability can help when you want less glare on the screen.
Who can book the meeting room?
The meeting room is available to both:
- Hotel guests
- External companies
Registration upon arrival is required. That flexibility makes the room useful whether you are staying overnight at Boutique Hotel Zilversluis or simply need a convenient professional meeting space in Zilversluis for part of the day.
If you are comparing work-friendly options, the hotel also offers a quiet seating area in the lounge with power outlets, USB-C, and high-speed Wi‑Fi. For informal work between meetings, that can be a practical complement to the dedicated boardroom.

Why a small dedicated meeting room often works better than an improvised call space
For video calls, simplicity reduces friction. A dedicated room helps avoid common issues such as background noise, poor screen visibility, and scattered seating. In a compact boardroom setting, everyone can stay engaged, see the same content, and participate in the conversation more naturally.
That is especially valuable when meetings involve both on-site and remote participants. A fixed table layout, visible display, stable Wi‑Fi, and shared audio point create a more professional experience than trying to run an important call from a public area.
