from a style perspective and if relevant you could say something like the restaurant,In de Oude Watermolen, situated, as the name suggests, in an old water mill ......

adapt as necessary - brackets can make a text rather burdensome to read at times, sometimes it\'s better to build something into the flow if you think more explanation is needed.

Judgement call since you have the text at hand.

Good luck
