Am a Dutch person and can confirm. However, it's a word that has multiple meanings and cannot be directly translated. In the literal sense, it means cozy or quaint, but can also mean time spent with loved ones, meeting with a friend after a long time, or a general feeling of togetherness.
Is this related to the German word "gemütlich"?
More or less, but German has the similar word “gesellig” which has the same meaning
I think it looks and sounds (if you pronounce it german) like "gesellig" which partially also fits with it's meaning.

Maybe convivial comes close?
How did you like the last season of Ted Lasso?
Just chiming in to say the show is very gezellig, and I highly recommend watching it when in the mood for some silly yet high quality feelgood.
It's definitely up there with the office and p&r for me!
