Date Night in Amsterdam: Solve a Mystery Together

Dinner and a movie can wait. For one hour, the two of you are the main characters of a story: a lost office beneath the old Stock Exchange, a century-old secret and a clock that is ticking.

The Architect is Sherlocked's two-player escape room, built so a duo can crack every puzzle without a crowd. Available on weekdays from €129 for two. Prefer a Sherlock Holmes case? Sherlock's Brain Fog takes two players as well, on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays.

Escape room for two people in Amsterdam by Sherlocked

Why an escape room makes a good date

An hour without phones. Phones stay outside, so the two of you talk, laugh and solve things together.

Built for two. The Architect is the only Sherlocked room with a dedicated two-player mode. No waiting for a bigger group.

Two minutes from Central Station. Play in the Beurs van Berlage, then walk to dinner or a canal-side drink.

A story to tell afterwards. Every room is handcrafted with cinematic storytelling and over 1,500 five-star reviews.

The Architect is great for teams of two!
This was the first time that my girlfriend and I tried an escape room and even with just a team of two it was great fun. I think that it was quite well-pitched. The puzzles were challenging, but not so difficult that you left feeling stupid. The staff know just when to redirect you if they see that you are stuck for a while. We were not successful in the end, but the staff were very friendly and made us feel positive and like we had done well. Lots of fun, and highly recommended.

My partner and I played "The Architect" after Sherlocked was recommended to us on our Amsterdam trip. Man, this escape room was mindblowing. We have played our fair share of ESCrooms, but this one topped most of them. Great riddles, everything made sense and wasn't too easy, but still solvable. Our game master was very helpful as well. We will definitely return to play "The Vault"!!

I went here for a date night with my wife. We took the architect room. The reception was quick. The lady explained things to us quickly and led us to the main room. The puzzles were really good and engaging. One of the best experiences i had. Would definitely come back for the Vault.

Which room suits a date?

The Architect is the room for two. Sherlock's Brain Fog also takes two players (Thursday to Saturday). The Vault and The Alchemist need a bigger team, so save those for the double date.
