Who are we?

We are a home hotel hybrid, offering short and long-term stay in a new and creative space. A flexible landing ground for international young talent coming to Amsterdam to work or study. We provide the privacy of your own room when you need it and a community when you want it.

We strive to make our guests feel a little less like a tourist and a lot more like a local. And we do so with success! We are opening our second location in May 2023, and we invite you to be a part of it!

The name at the core of our hotels, Jansen, is one of the oldest and most common Dutch family names. Inspired by this heritage, we are driven to revive a feeling of family. Everything in the hotel revolves around this family idea. Our newly rebranded Café Jansen Amsterdam is the heart of the hotel; it’s our lobby, a workplace, and a hang-out spot.

The restaurant is a welcoming space for all. Our menu will be designed to reflect a true sense of seasonality. The light flavours of summer, the warm comforting tastes of winter and the freshness of the seasons that meet in-between. We as the chefs will craft classic dishes with simple contemporary twists, creating a unique culinary experience that celebrates the vibrancy of each season.

The menu will change throughout the year to reflect the availability of the ingredients. Featuring seasonally inspired dishes, from classic comfort foods to innovative creations that highlight the uniqueness of local flavours. Café Jansen is a place that feels like Amsterdam, inspired by the diversity and originality of the neighbourhood that is the newly redeveloped Bajeskwartier.

Great Place

Staying here now for 2 months and will definitely extend as long as possible. Great place full of amazing people. The location is perfect for walks in nature and not too far from the city centre. They also serve great food in the restaurant downstairs, I haven’t cooked once. Highly recommended.
