Each year around mid-March, Amsterdam’s parks and fields transform into real-life Impressionist paintings with the start of tulip season. Anantara Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky helps its guests to navigate this colorful landscape with a collection of three curated experiences. These experiences celebrate the iconic flower’s enduring appeal through historical insights, gourmet food and natural immersion.

In 2025, the hotel is making a new addition to its ever-evolving “Tulips in Bloom” collection with the “Tulip Treats” package. Moreover, the package begins with an audio tour of the Tulip Museum, focusing on the flower’s role as a symbol of wealth and its cultural significance.

‘Tulip Treats’ package

Meanwhile, the museum has recently expanded its show garden, where four million tulips are arranged in perfect symmetry, offering a stunning backdrop for photographs while enjoying alfresco tea with delectable tulip-shaped cakes, a playful invention of a local patisserie. Moreover, the tulip cakes feature a colorful velour-finished mousse and jelly cup resting on a buttery base.

The “Tulip Treats” package is priced at $461 for two people for 3.5 hours, including return limousine transfers.

‘Tulip Treasures’ package

Guests can also explore Amsterdam’s long-standing relationship with the king of spring flowers via the hotel’s signature “Tulip Treasures” package. Guests will first tour the Tulip Museum with a professional grower, culminating with a visit of the museum’s exquisite show garden.

Following this, they will be whisked back to the hotel for a two-course lunch or dinner at the elegant Grand Café Krasnapolsky, overlooking the colorful expanse of Dam Square.

The “Tulip Treasures” package is priced at $705 for two people for four hours, including return limousine transfers.

’Tulip Tableaux’ package

Romantics and nature enthusiasts alike will love the “Tulip Tableaux” package. This includes a limousine transfer, a guided museum tour and a luxury picnic served by an Anantara butler, nestling in a sea of flowers in a private tulip field.

On the picnic’s menu are delicacies like an Old Dutch cheese sandwich with nutty Beemster and homemade apple syrup; light lobster salad with artichoke, grapefruit, tomato and asparagus; Dutch caviar with blini and crème fraîche; and a tulip-inspired dessert made with delicate layers of pear, elderberry, yoghurt, and spiced Speculaas biscuits.

The “Tulip Tableaux” package is $1,357 for two people for four hours.

All three “Tulips in Bloom” packages include a gift bag from Bloomeffects, an innovative brand of high-performance skincare rich in antioxidants derived from tulips sourced from a local fourth-generation farm.

Moreover, guests can further experience the brand’s advanced skincare formulation by booking the hotel’s signature Black Tulip Radiance Facial at $190 for 60 minutes at Anantara Spa.

Guests staying at Anantara Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky Amsterdam outside the spring season can still experience Amsterdam’s enduring affection for the iconic flower by taking home their own Anantara Tulip bulbs and planting them in the spring.

Developed in partnership with local growers, the distinctive variety embodies the brand’s spirit with its signature sunshine gold hue that can be spotted each spring at Anantara Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky Amsterdam and other Anantara properties in Europe.

The three packages are available during the 2025 tulip season from mid-March to mid-May. For more information about Anantara Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky Amsterdam, visit Tulips in Bloom.
