Monet Garden Hotel in Amsterdam, Netherlands is our first choice when choosing a hotel for you here.
Their location, facilities and value are only part of what continues to get them rave reviews from all Mosaic Travellers who have stayed here!
After falling ill while travelling, Jorn and his team went above and beyond to deliver lemon, ginger and honey tea and a surprise fruit platter to Mosaic Travellers S&S: “there is a definite personal touch. I’ve never experienced such care from a hotel!”
I spoke with Front Office Manager, Jorn Metternich (third from left) to find out more.
Jorn, how did you come to be the Manager at Monet Garden Hotel?
We opened the Monet Garden Hotel Amsterdam in December 2017 with a brand new team with the same passion and mission: Making people happy and give a personalised service throughout their stay. I do have experiences in 5 star hotels in different positions and my goal was to achieve the same personal touch and personalised service than in a 5 star hotel. So far we are really happy we succeed in doing this.
What do you suggest visitors do during their time in Amsterdam?
To at least visit Amsterdam for a couple of days. There is so much to explore. Go for instance to one of our Museums like the Van Gogh, the Rijksmuseum (with the Rembrandt paintings) or rent a bike, like the locals do and explore the lovely historic city centre of Amsterdam on a bike.
If you are not in to biking, all major attractions are in close walking distance of our hotel. Like the lovely flower market (10 minutes) the historic and charming 9 streets with his lovely boutique shops (15 minutes) the Royal Palaca of the Dam (12 minutes) or the famous and historic Red light district (10 minutes)
What makes your hotel special and why is it different to others in the area?
Our location is excellent. Within close walking distance of many attractions. When you are staying with us, you do not have the feeling that you are staying in the city centre of Amsterdam. Our rooms are either facing the canal or a tranquelle courtyard. In addition, we do like to offer our guests upon arrival a lovely cup of coffee or a glass of the Amsterdam ‘Heineken’ or even a glass of Prosecco. While the guests are enjoying their welcome drink, we love to give them lots of city information.
Finally, we love food here at Mosaic Travel! Is there a particular dish or restaurant that Mosaic Travellers must try when they’re in Amsterdam?
We at the Monet Garden Hotel also love food!
At the reception we offer a list with restaurant suggestions. We do suggest to eat in of the Dutch cuisine restaurants. Like Restaurant the D’vijf Vlieghen (pictured) or restaurant “Greetje’.
