22B&B

The beautiful mansion that is now a b&b / guesthouse, was in the early 1900s a diamond dealer's house with adjoining diamond workshops in nr 22b. Throughout time both buildings led their own life until the opportunity arose to bring them together again.

In 2008, we started our foodbar '22b' in nr. 22b. In 2017 we got the opportunity to buy nr. 24 and realise our plans for a b&b.

This residential area has an authentic atmosphere due to the Jewish inhabitants who wander the streets until late at night in their black coats. The character of the district that used to be linked to the diamond industry is still tangible.
