A really great and adventurous experience!

Waow! I've just played the Architect with 5 friends and I'm still excited! This was my first "escape room" and I can't wait to play another. Sherlock's "The Vault" is now on top of my list. Without spoiling anything, I can say that the Architect will surprise you, challenge you to work together and amaze you with cool details. The decor is stunning and the whole story behind the Architect is really interesting. Just go and check it out, you will certainly not regret it! ;)

Amazing experience. Serious, non-casual, better than standard escape room experience

Do not miss out!

The architect was the 5th escape room I have done, but it was really interesting, exciting and rewarding. There aren't too many padlock to open, which seems to be a common theme of escape rooms. Cost about 35 pounds but well worth it!!

Highlight of my entire trip to Amsterdam

My friends and I were lucky enough to get to play The Architect and The Vault back to back during our trip to Amsterdam. It's hard to not just rant incoherently about what an amazing time we had so I'll break it down into parts. The Staff Professionalism at its finest, we arrived at the requested meeting time and were greeted and welcomed warmly. Simon and Victor walked us through getting ready for the Architect while we waited for the rest of our group to arrive. They were polite and helpful with our questions and took a moment in the hectic time of getting everything sorted to keep us entertained with pleasant small talk while we waited. After seeing the rooms its clear how much work goes into hosting, coordinating and assisting each room. This staff is top notch and deserves every bit of praise I can muster. The Rooms The Architect is a stunning masterpiece of an escape room, it provides a strong meta that flows flawlessly in one of the most beautiful spaces I have ever experienced in a room. It's not super clear from the description but the room is housed in the basement of the historic Beurs van Berlage. Most rooms are in a rented office space with some pop up walls, definitely not the case here. Every detail of the room is the highest quality, each prop is handcrafted to fit the aesthetic and function of the space; it's totally awe inspiring. This is a "must do" for any fan of escape rooms, period. The Vault offered an experience I have wanted out of a escape room for years. It's an immersive and engaging story, that rewards you the more you buy into the adventure. The room is challenging and incredibly rewarding ever step of the way, the lead up to the room is almost as fun as the room itself, be sure to take every bit of advice you are given by them. Overall Experience It's pretty clear to me that these rooms rank as some of the best I have done and are must do rooms. If you are in Amsterdam or near by and call yourself a fan of escape rooms, make it a priority to visit.

Great Experience, also for beginners

Just overall a great experience. Staff was nice and helpful and the puzzles weren't easy, but not to hard. It was our first time and we needed about 4min longer than you had, but still we were allowed to finish.

Sher-mazing!

Fab fab fab! I suggested this to my husband to do for his birthday as he had previously been to an escape room on his stag. It was fantastic! Very well thought out and you can really immerse yourself in the whole experience. The staff are approachable and very believable in the story the lay out too. It really gets you thinking and was a great way to spend an hour working as a team with my hubby- got to keep his brain ticking over now he's the ripe old age of 32! Would definitely recommend a visit!

Best escape room ever

If your visiting Amsterdam, don't leave without doing the vault. It was hands down the best escape room I've ever done. It was so exciting. It had all the best elements. Do this, don't miss out!

Most thrilling activity!

I don’t want to spoil anything of this amazing escape room. But get ready for some 007 vibes. This is not your average escape room with simply cracking a padlock. This is way more adventurous and puzzling. You even have to get your pokerface right! Thank you Sherlocked!

You have to visit The Vault!! This is the best escape room experience I have had so far. There is a bit of role play, a lot of real life experience like elements. The host was a really cool guy and his role playing skills are on point. Once inside, the puzzles are jarring and the intense race against time makes it even more exhilarating experience. We managed to escape in the last 10 seconds (Yes!). We were literally running to find escape. Mind it, only 20% of people manage to escape from this room. So If you believe that you had done a one too many escape rooms, I dare you to try this one. The Authenticity and history of the building where the Vault is located just cherry on the icing making the experience even more enriched. Ps. The management team has taken all necessary measures to maintain social distancing and proper sanitary measures within the premises for corona virus

Absolutely Amazing!!!

We’re celebrating a 30th birthday and this was one of the activities and what an experience! We’ve never done an escape room before and all I can say is we want to do more! The entire thing from start to finish was well planned and thought out, the puzzles really get your brain going!! Would definitely recommend to anyone and everyone!
