Hotel MAI in Amsterdam's Chinatown is not just a hotel, it's a living tribute to the rich cultural history of this historic neighborhood. When you enter, you are immediately immersed in an enchanting world where the past blends seamlessly with the present.
Our hotel, located in a beautiful building dating back to 1609, was once a whale oil storage facility in a time when whale hunting was quite common. Today, a restored façade stone serves as a reminder of this history. In 1840, Johan Bertolo Delius started his glass trade here, and in 1904, he constructed the impressive building that now houses our hotel.
The meaning of MAI Amsterdam is "Meet Asia in Amsterdam." This is because with MAI Amsterdam, we have created a place inspired by history but tailored to the present. It's more than just a hotel; it's a destination where you can truly meet Asia in Amsterdam.
Gallery MAI Amsterdam is a peaceful oasis within the hotel, featuring rotating exhibitions that inspire. An ideal environment to escape from the crowds in the city and experience the visual stories the artists tell.
