What People Say About Sherlocked Escape Rooms in Amsterdam

I've been to around 10 escape rooms and this one is by far the best. The story is truly immersive, simple enough to follow yet deep and detailed. The escape room never bores and seems endless. The puzzles were clever, diverse and unique. The atmosphere was so well done that we forgot that we were playing a game. This hasn't happened to me before. The only reason to not do this escape room is that all those you did before and will do after will feel dull.

A year ago we did our first escape room ever at Sherlocked in Amsterdam. The architect room was so clever and immersive; we were immediately hooked. Since then we've done upwards of 70 rooms in a dozen different countries. We were excited to get back to Amsterdam and try The Vault. We weren't disappointed. This room is booked as 90 minutes and it's immersive from the very first minute. It's like being a real life spy or in a movie. The puzzles are difficult and the game requires a little bit of physical "strength" in addition to using your brain. We felt this room was the best we've ever done. The theming alone is incredible. We're looking forward to another room- hopefully soon!

As with other reviewers, this was our first time in an escape room and we weren't sure what to expect. We received a very warm welcome in this beautiful, historic building and after being asked to leave our mobile phones and bags securely at reception, we were given some background information and led into the room. We took part as a family of four, with two teenagers. It was a good combination of easy and difficult clues/challenges and we all enjoyed it, especially the way it made us work together. At times we got a bit stuck but were given some further direction from the host if we were clearly not getting anywhere. All-in-all, this was great fun and I would definitely recommend it.

As an experienced escape-roomer it wasn’t one of my best but quite a decent one. The only thing I hope from Dutch escape room is to give an option to ask for hint from the guest’s ends. (This also means sometimes they don’t want the hint and rather fail)

It was an amazing experience, recommended for both visitors and residents. Would definetely suggest, staff really friendly.

I didn't have a clue what to expect from the Vault when I was told I would be doing it. I always wondered how escape rooms could really work as an experience - I always though it was just puzzles you had to solve to get out. Well - yes and no! While there were plenty of puzzles, it was made an experience by the people involved in the organisation of the Vault who made us almost instantly feel like we were actually part of the story - scared, happy, incredibly nervous, and all on cue. If you want to step out of your world and into a story in which you're the hero (hopefully), then step into the Vault!

Very interesting escape room and a really unique experience.

We were celebrating a bacheloretteparty in Amsterdam and it was the highlight of the weekend !!! We did the vault at night !! Sooo great even though we couldn't finish it !

We went as a team of mother, daughter, and son. We were a bit too slow in the beginning, which cost us needed time. Another 5 minutes, and we'd have been out. Darn! Very doable activity, though. Loads of fun! We were so immersed, that we rather lost track of time. Highly recommend the experience!

We’ve done the Sherlocked escape room which started outside the premise which was really interesting and included a bit a acting and using props to get into the theme. The interaction with the host was a fun and unique experience.
