Plan your stay
Maastricht offers a wide range of accommodation options to suit different HYROX participants and spectators, from modern business-style properties near the MECC to cozy guesthouses and apartments closer to the historic city center. Visitors can choose between practical stays within walking distance of the venue or more atmospheric lodgings in the old town, depending on whether race-day convenience or urban charm is the priority. Rooms in the city often feature comfortable beds, quiet spaces for pre-race rest and easy access to public transport. Many places provide early breakfast options or nearby cafés, which can be useful for morning wave times. Booking well in advance is recommended, as a four-day HYROX weekend brings a significant influx of athletes and supporters.
Maastricht is one of the Netherlands’ most charming and historic cities, offering plenty to explore around race day. Participants and spectators can wander the cobbled streets of the old town, visit the Vrijthof square, or walk along the river Maas for a relaxed recovery stroll. Cultural highlights include museums, underground caves and centuries-old churches that showcase the city’s unique blend of Dutch and Limburg heritage. After the race, enjoy local café culture with terraces and bakeries, or sample regional specialties such as vlaai, Limburg-style sausages and hearty stews that are perfect for refueling. The city’s compact center makes it easy to combine competition, sightseeing and quality time with friends or teammates.
