Gallery & Exhibitions

Gallery MAI hosts rotating art exhibitions, such as 'The Cattle of Kings' and 'Medical Body Jewels.' The space showcases photography, collage, and mixed-media works, offering a quiet retreat from the city.

Central Location

The hotel is in Amsterdam's Chinatown, a 10-minute walk from Amsterdam Centraal Station and Nieuwmarkt. Nearby landmarks include the Basilica of St. Nicholas (800 meters), the Royal Palace (3 km), and Rembrandtplein (4.5 km). Schiphol Airport is 22 km away.

“What stands out is its curated art gallery and Asian-inspired décor; this aesthetic distinguishes the property. While centrally located near Amsterdam's Chinatown, some have mentioned potential noise issues. I noticed that its commitment to inclusivity should also appeal to a range of travellers.”

some issues

leaking coffee machine limited hanging space
i found a couple of things annoying . the coffee machine leaked and was never replaced despite my reporting it three times. also, there wasn't enough hanging space for clothes or towels. when i brought this up, the front desk said many guests mention it but the owners prefer the simplicity. i disagree.

hallway lights dim lights
The breakfast had a good range of food options.
The hallway lights were indeed too dark, just like others said. I hoped they improved it but they didn't. Lights in the room itself were also dim. Turning on bright lights should be an option.
