Hotels near Huis Ten Bosch Dec 31 - Jan 1?

I have been planning to book a room near Huis Ten Bosch for December 31 - January 1 because I heard the new year light show is very nice.
However, I have been looking at the schedule almost everyday since May and I have never seen a room open up. I went to the hotel website (I checked Hotel Nikko, Hotel Amsterdam, Hotel Europe, and Hotel Forest Villa), and December 30, 31, and January 1 are blacked out. I looked at the details it says "NOT AVAILABLE", not "SOLD OUT" and red like the other sold out dates. So I have a feeling it means something else and not really sold out.
Are the rooms just not available yet, or I can't book on those dates? I'm really looking forward to this because it was supposed to be the highlight of my trip but I can't find any rooms.
If anyone can suggest a place nearby that we can also stay in that would be great!

You can find many available rooms in Sasebo (especially near Sasebo station), if that's close enough for you.

I also considered that, but if I were to watch the show, that means I have to be able to somehow get back to the hotel at around 1am and I'm not sure if the trains are active.
I have read somewhere that for that special day, the trains will run until the wee hours of the morning from Huis Ten Bosch station. Is this true?
Thanks!

Just took a look at it, thank you very much for the info!
I'm still hoping to get a room in the compound itself but if there's no choice I will book a hotel in Sasebo :)
Thanks for the help!

I don't know where you are looking but on the official Huis Ten Bosch site all hotels are marked sold out for Dec 30 to Jan 2 but have rooms available for all the other days of December and January, so it's pretty clear they are sold out for thse days.

Yeah I just saw a blog post that rooms get sold out for that day like 1 year before, so I guess there's no hope :(
I was looking at the individual hotel sites. It might be my browser or something, but while other dates like September 12 has "NA-Not available" or "Sold out" clearly marked on them, I just found it weird that Dec 30 - Jan 2 or Sept 19-22 is just greyed out instead of them putting a similar notice, that's why I thought it might mean something else.
Anyway I'm gonna be reserving a hotel in Sasebo now before they decide to run out as well XD
Thanks again!
