A unique escape room in a monumental building

We tried the Architect room as a group of 3 and certainly had a lot of fun. The escape room itself is set within the beautiful, historical Amsterdam Stock exchange building. The puzzles were varied and very interesting. Our host, Sam was also very friendly. Overall, a memorable experience and we’ll be back for the Vault!

Terrific escape room in the heart of Amsterdam

Sherlocked is located at the Beurs van Berlage which is a five minute walk from Amsterdam Central Station. You will find the entrance at the Beursplein, next to the café opposite to 'de Bijenkorf'. Make yourself known by ringing the bell. The host will pick you up at the door and, after greeting you, will guide you to a place where you can leave all jackets, bags, and valuables. All valuables as well as bags are left in containers which will be locked so don't worry about anything getting stolen. After storing your belongings the host will guide you to the catacombs of the Beurs van Berlage and will tell you the story about the Beurs van Berlage after which the challenge will start. We played The Architect, which was absolutely terrific. The room is decorated beautifully with the decor completely fitting the early 1900s style of the Beurs van Berlage. The puzzles and riddles are not too easy and have been thought out very well. Clues provide hints in a very cryptic manner causing one to really think twice. Opposed to other escape rooms puzzles and riddles are diverse requiring the players to use all their senses. Hints are provided through an old fashioned phone in the room. Puzzles aren't necessarily lineair meaning players can work simultaneously on solving different mysteries. We were with five, which felt like an ideal team size. Unfortunately we did not manage to escape within 60 minutes as we got stuck in the last fiveteen minutes despite being very very close. Escaping, however, isn't impossible within the hour, just be sure to stay calm, think clear and retrace the steps you've taken. According to the host 60% of the players manage to escape within the hour. Despite failing to escape we had the time of our lives. Playing Sherlocked is a great experience and I would definitely recommend anyone looking for a great activity with friends to play this game. We will definitely come back to play The Vault! I think Sherlocked really lives up to its promise of being among the best escape rooms in the Netherlands. Hopefully the portfolio will be expanded beyond The Architect, The Vault and (currently) The Port Game.

Still buzzing from excitement, this was an amazing experience! We did the Alchemist room, the production value is insane, 100% worth the money. Staff slayed, thank you :))

As close to the Crystal Maze as I've felt in years!

For British audiences the above title is probably already enough - and so it should be! Challenges air on the mystery and mental end of the spectrum. Really fun game to do with a good group of mates. Do it.

Best escape room in Amsterdam!

The Vault is by far the best escape room I've been to in The Netherlands. A thrilling and sometimes extremely challenging expedition into the oldest underground historic vaults of Amsterdam. Lot's of 'real feel', history, time pressure, and great acting. Only 15% of teams makes it out in time, guess our team was one of the lucky few!!! Can't wait to try the other room, The Architect, too.
