What People Say About Sherlocked Escape Rooms in Amsterdam

A very cool and immersive experience for everyone. Super recommend trying this one out while in the area :)

Okay so first off, you need to experience this and I advise booking in advance of your trip to the beautiful city of Amsterdam!. We had one of the last bookings of the day (10pm -12th November 2015). Admittedly we were a little stoned on our arrival but the lovely member of staff must expect this kind of thing (its Amsterdam after all) but i also think it added to the atmosphere when entering the room, it was a truly amazing experience, one i will never forget and am now seeking further escape rooms to conquer!....oh yes we actually escaped as well (to all our surprise).

Geweldig!! Aanrader!!

The Architect is the first escape room ever tried. We went by 2 despite the reviews saying that you need to be a bigger group. In fact we completed 95% of it but before last clue the 60 min timer was up. There are pros/cons in any size as if you're a bigger no. might be harder to coordinate and get ppl to work together. Anyway..the clues and how it works is really great as it makes you pick up your common sense and knowledge under time pressure. There's a good balance of using all riddles, scents, music, sequences, etc.

Locked into a room for an hour with good friends, trying to solve a lot of different mysteries. We didn't make it, but very close! Awesome host, speaking fluent English. All in all a perfect game!!!

With a group of 6 friends we got locked into a beautiful early-20th century room in the basement of the just as amazing Beurs van Berlage building. The room and the great amount of puzzles it contained were created with a lot of attention to detail and drama. For 65 minutes (we had only 2 minutes left on the clock when we escaped the room) we were detectiving away, using all our senses and combined puzzle-solving skills to crack one after the other fantastic puzzle. It's an awful lot of fun, and the feel of accomplishment after solving each puzzle, and eventually escaping the room, is fantastic. We were all first-timers, but it left us with a taste for a lot more. Can't wait for Sherlocked to open their next escape room!

Sherlocked in Amsterdam is really something special. As soon as we stepped into The Alchemist, we were blown away. It’s honestly one of the most beautiful and elaborate escape rooms we’ve ever seen. HOWEVER what truly made our visit unforgettable was our host, Victor. His kindness and attentiveness stood out from the start, but he still went above and beyond. Victor secretly collaborated with my (now) fiancé to plan a proposal at the end of our experience. And it was perfect!! This escape room was so genuinely significant and will be a day we’ll cherish forever. Unfortunately, this review does come a couple of months late (life has been busy, as you can imagine!) but we still wanted to thank Victor and the rest of the Sherlocked team. Thank you for giving us such a meaningful and extraordinary memory. Y’all have set the bar impossibly high for escape rooms, and we can’t wait to visit Amsterdam again one day!

Can highly recommend The Vault for an escape room experience. The game master Sam was flawless, the setup is on point and if you're looking for an excellent experience, look for Sherlocked!

The Alchemist is the best escape room I’ve ever done in my life, and I’ve done a lot. My friend and I took a trip to Amsterdam, and we knew we had to take the opportunity to visit Sherlocked. We felt like we were in a movie. The puzzles were fun, just the right amount of challenging, and made sense with the story. And speaking of the story- what an immersive, engaging, and beautiful experience. I’ve never been so swept away by every element of an escape room and it had me completely captivated from start to finish. The quality, the craftsmanship, the creativity- bravo! I only wish I could afford to travel the world more often so I could try all of the other rooms here.

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.
