General Information

Cosy home ambience...

In the centre, only minutes away from the museums and within
walking distance from all major sights and nightlife spots.
Maes Bed and Breakfast We have named the B&B after Nicolaas Maes, one of the famous Dutch painters from the 17th century and a pupil of Rembrandt. Some of his work can be seen in the Rijksmuseum. The private house, dating from the eighteenth century, has recently been renovated. The guest rooms, located on the first and second floor, are quaint and comfortable. They are decorated with an accent on a cosy home 'ambience'. Awaken to the smell of fresh croissants, which are part of the extended continental breakfast. Complimentary coffee and tea are available throughout the day in the guest kitchen on the first floor. We're located in a quaint street between two canals: the Herengracht and the Keizersgracht. It is conveniently near major tram-lines and only steps away from the Anne Frank House and the Jordaan, which is famous for its variety of shops, restaurants and galleries. The major museums: the Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh and the Stedelijk, are within walking distance. As well as the the street markets the Albert Cuyp, Noorder Markt, the trendy shoppingstreet PC Hooftstraat and numerous nightlife spots.
