Meet the Team
What really sets us apart is our service. High quality service isn’t something we have to explain to the team—at The Dylan it comes naturally. Come visit us and let the genuine service and attentiveness of the team embrace you.
Robbert van Rijsbergen
Hotel Manager
“Our personal approach and family feel set us apart from other hotels. If for example I walk out of the door here and I see a group of guests arriving with plenty of suitcases, my team and I are happy to help them with their luggage.”
Renee Holten
Front Office Manager
Natasja Noorlander
Food and Beverage Manager
“When we have guests who are a bit intimidated by the wine list or by the wine-drinking experience, I always ask them what they like to drink. People know more than they think.”
Jurgen van der Zalm
Executive Chef – Restaurant Vinkeles
Max Dijkema
Sales & Marketing Manager
“The Dylan has such an interesting story. Once opened as the almost legendary Blakes Amsterdam, now evolved to a Leading Hotel of The World where quiet luxury speaks. My job really is to tell this story in many different ways, both online and offline.”
Filip Hanlo
Chef at até
Esther Leijen
Director of Finance
“As my title specifies I am Director of Finance at The Dylan, which really is a supervisory and controlling role. I am in charge of all financial matters of the hotel, from coordinating audits to making financial statements to creating and monitoring budgets.”
Bart Kalfsterman
Sam Hilkens
Director of Operations
“I am constantly inspired by the passionate people I work with, the rich heritage of our historic building, and the trust and freedom granted to innovate and further develop the hotel experience.”
Jasper van Amerongen
Sommelier – Restaurant Vinkeles
Niels Bonnes
Cluster Head of Technical Services
“I am responsible for the maintenance of the hotel in the most general sense of the word.
We enjoy a lot of freedom and are forced to use our brains and think out of the box. Our guests can feel that; you cannot fake that kind of commitment. That is how we manage to stand out.”
