KenauSHome

1 suite for 2


These are the highlights

  • You’ll be staying in the very place where, centuries ago, Haarlem’s most famous woman lived: Kenau Simonsdochter Hasselaer.

  • During the Siege of Haarlem, she fought heroically against the Spanish, and that made her a legend.

  • The listed retail premises that now stand here date from 1898. Today, they house an art gallery and a B&B.


This lovely B&B, quietly located near all the highlights of bustling Haarlem, offers plenty of privacy and comfort. The guest house is located in a separate area behind the gallery and offers space for two.

You will find a spacious room, luxurious bathroom, fully equipped kitchen and a lovely patio garden for the nicer days. The room is equipped with all modern comforts: box-spring, flat screen TV, free WIFI, underfloor heating, dining area and sitting area. The sitting area in the gallery can also be used if desired. The extensive breakfast with organic regional products is prepared for you in the kitchen in the morning to enjoy at a time that suits you best.

Surroundings

It is wonderfully quiet here, while the famous museums, numerous monuments, nice shopping streets and the variety of restaurants of historic Haarlem are just a five-minute walk away. The beach and dunes of Zandvoort and Bloemendaal are easily and quickly accessible and the bulb fields are also nearby.

History

Just imagine! You are staying exactly where Haarlem's most famous woman lived centuries ago: Kenau Simonsdochter Hasselaer. She owes her fame to her heroic battle against the Spanish during the Siege of Haarlem. The monumental shop that now stands here dates from 1898. Today it houses a gallery and a B&B.
