The Arcade Hotel

Welcome to the world's first video game hotel, a truly unique experience. Gaming and geek culture permeate the entire hotel. In the rooms, you'll find modern and retro gaming consoles, a comic book library, and geeky decor at every turn. The Arcade Hotel is located in the heart of De Pijp, across from Sarphatipark (a favorite local park), and a 10-minute tram ride from the city center/Dam Square. Easily accessible via public transport (metro or tram), it's only a 25-minute drive from Schiphol Airport. We're surrounded by local bars and cafes and close to the Heineken Experience and Albert Cuypmarkt. The Rijksmuseum, Stedelijk Museum, and Van Gogh Museum are also within walking distance. All rooms are equipped with modern and retro consoles and free high-speed Wi-Fi. You'll find more retro games in our lobby next to the impressive Game Room, featuring over 20 assorted coin-operated arcade machines, a PS5, and an Xbox Series X. We offer a breakfast bag delivered to your room or available for pickup at the bar, filled with assorted jams, fruit, beverages, and pastries to fuel your Amsterdam adventures. Our bar offers a diverse selection of cocktails, long drinks, Dutch and Belgian beers, whiskey, coffee, tea, and bar snacks, which can be enjoyed in our backyard garden complete with a life-size chessboard. We believe hotels should be vibrant hubs of intercultural exchange, connecting locals and travelers. Games are our chosen medium to achieve this. Enjoy Amsterdam and relax between sightseeing adventures with a few hours of Super Mario, Pac-Man, Donkey Kong, Street Fighter, and many other retro and modern games. We invite you to experience our unique hotel, run by passionate gamers who believe in the power of community and reimagined hospitality.
