Maison Elle - Boutique Hotel near Vondel Park

The facade of the Maison Elle Hotel in Amsterdam features red bricks, light stone details, symmetrical windows and an ornate wooden door flanked by two traditional street lamps.

in short...

  • Parisian flair in a historic townhouse

  • a stroll in Vondelpark right outside the door

  • Croissants for breakfast – in a velvet armchair with a garden view

A touch of Paris graces the elegant Maison Elle, with its lush green garden.

When breakfast is served in the morning with croissants, pain au chocolat, and café au lait, and we enjoy it on pale blue velvet chairs in front of wood-paneled walls, we almost have to remind ourselves that we are in Amsterdam, and that the famous Rijksmuseum, with its old Dutch masters, is just a five-minute bike ride away.

Maison Elle is nestled near the beautiful Vondelpark, in an upscale Amsterdam townhouse from 1910. 

Large windows in a room at Maison Elle Hotel in Amsterdam reveal treetops and a chapel spire. In the foreground are a velvet chair with ottoman and a small round side table with books.

While the view from the window doesn’t directly overlook the park, it does offer scenes of green courtyards, sprawling old trees, the slender spire of the Park Church, and the magnificent gable of Villa Betty.

Some of the rooms are cozily small, but lovingly furnished, bright, and comfortable.

The team, who greet us in the gray-paneled reception rooms downstairs, are warm and welcoming.

In the breakfast lounge, with large windows facing the garden, we feel so comfortable that we also like to use it as a living room during our breaks between city excursions.

The hotel is perfectly located for this purpose, as we can quickly reach Stach Food, the Coffee District, the Night Kitchen, Café Wilhelmina and many other favorite destinations.

Just around the corner, we rent a bike from Black Bikes, and from Maison Elle, we can easily reach any part of Amsterdam we wish to explore.

Who we are  and why we know a thing or two about lifestyle tips?

For over fifteen years, we ran Schneewittchen, our self-founded café and concept store in the heart of Munich’s Glockenbach district. 

A decade and a half of hands-on experience  in hospitality, design, curation and community  is the foundation we build on today, and the reason we’re excited to share what we’ve learned.

Schneewittchen was never just a café or lifestyle shop. 

It was a second living room  - a place where friends and family came together. 

Some regulars became close friends. Others found the warm, familiar atmosphere so comforting that Schneewittchen became a part of their daily rhythm. 

For some, it was a creative workplace  - a spot to feel inspired, free, and always well-fed.

People were curious about our shop products, our café menu, our playlists  - and often, about us. 

They asked about our travels, our favourite places to eat or shop, the clothes we wore. Questions poured in about design, interiors, kitchen tools, self-employment and more.

Bumblebee Magazine was born out of those conversations. 

It’s a lifestyle platform for like-minded people to discover answers, find inspiration and stumble across the next thing they might like as much as we do.
