Once a zoological building, this cool spot is now located in the beautiful Oosterpark. And guess what? You can enjoy free WiFi throughout the property – perfect for sharing those travel selfies!
The former lecture hall has undergone a stylish makeover, becoming a chill lounge and bar where you can unwind after a day of exploring. Plus, there's a cozy dining area and even a hidden bar in what used to be the boiler room – talk about character!
Every room comes equipped with air conditioning, fresh bed linens, and a private bathroom with a shower. For those looking for something a bit extra, the Generator Amsterdam also offers premium rooms.
