    Last Saturday I rented this club to have my birthdayparty with friends, according to the Covid rules for 1,5m distance, there were 50 people allowed in the club, as was also confirmed by the email send by the owner. We therefore invited 48 people to be safe, 10 of which didn't show up due to Corona fears or other reason. We were there with around 40 people, brought our own dj's and the evening started of really nice. The owner seemed like a nice guy and everyone was having a great and Corona-proof time. After a few hours the owner came up to me and told me he didn't like how few people were there and that he could at least have 100 people in there. I was convinced he told me 50, but he is the owner so he would probably know better (he didnt when I checked the mail the next day). It was a private party so he asked me if he could invited more people, I was fine with that as long as they would like our music, would fit in with the group and there was still enough space for safe distance. A little later the owner came up to me again and told me I had to change the music because his new guests didn't like it. I told him no, because I paid him a few hunderd euro's to have a private party with MY music (even if I would play nursery rhymes he should be okay because it was a PRIVATE party). After he started yelling and told me he was gonna shut the whole party down I told him that he could change the music if he refunded my money. After this he went to the bathroom and friends of mine heard him yelling and having a tantrum alone. After a few of my female friends calmed him down a bit he left the club and told the manager that he had to shut everything down at 02:00 instead of the agreed 04:00. At 2am sharp we were very aggresively kicked out. So in conclussion I got half a party (of which a lot was ruined by a yelling owner), never got my money back and was kicked out in a nasty way. 0 stars if I could, but felt like people should know this before thinking about having a party here Love, Sander

    We had a great night here. Good house music and people. The staff is very friendly. I recommend you to have girls with or to at least make a reservation.

    I am very surprised! I thought it was going to be like any rip-off place in Amsterdam, but it's really not! Entrance is free if you take your ticket in advance on Evenbrite, cloakroom is free, dance music is pretty good and drink are incredibly affordable. 4 euro for a beer. Never seen in a club. What is more, staff are absolutely adorable and respectful. Enough writing now. Will enjoy the night here!

    I like this club very much. My favourite in the centrum. Enough space for dancing, good electronic music that can be interesting for a wide range of interests, good air circulation, comfortable smoking area inside, good bar with some seats to take a break and nice stuff. If you are looking for something regular, safe and casual, this is a good option

    (Translated by Google) If you do not even come to this club with a handicapped person, strapped to a sack truck, that says a lot. He was probably afraid that he might "soil" something. Disability-friendly zero! (Original) Wenn man noch nicht mal mit einem Behinderten, auf einer Sackkarre festgeschnallt, in diesem Club kommt, sagt das schon eine Menge aus. Wahrscheinlich hatte man Angst, dass er etwas "beschmutzen" könnte. Behindertenfreundlichkeit gleich Null!

    (Translated by Google) Very separate guard on Saturday evening. I went to Club NL with 5 friends and the first two bars of me arrive without any hassle in (19) years and I show my ID (19 years) and I am refused due to the fact that the guard did not know me personally. Apparently people are randomly chosen to enter. Then I am refused and those other 4 friends of mine all come in without any hassle ..... very unfortunate had thought to be able to go out with my friends and have a night out but apparently you are refused without a good reason .... I give this tent in terms of security 1 star, but that star is a shooting star! (Original) Hele aparte bewaker op de zaterdagavond. Ik ben met 5 vrienden naar Club NL gegaan en de eerste twee maten van mij komen zonder gedoe binnen (19) jaar en ik laat mijn ID zien (19jaar) en wordt geweigerd vanwege het feit dat de bewaker mij niet persoonlijk kende. Blijkbaar worden mensen willekeurig gekozen om binnen te kunnen komen. Vervolgens wordt ik geweigerd en die andere 4 vrienden van mij komen allemaal zonder gedoe binnen..... heel jammer had gedacht gezellig met mijn vrienden en avondje te kunnen stappen maar blijkbaar wordt je geweigerd zonder een goede reden.... ik geef deze tent qua bewaking 1 ster maar die ster is een vallende ster!

    Went there on a Wednesday night looking for electronic music and the place is a perfect spot ! Very good live and underground house / tech house whole night from local DJ. Very nice use of space (small but true dancefloor with smoking room close to the sound). Made my night and will come back for sure. Not very crowded that night but only cool and true party people

    The demise of this place can easily be judged by the attitude of the hostess at the reception. She forced me to take off my leather jacket while another guy right next to me was allowed to enter while keeping his jacket on. Anyways, I gave up my jacket and entered the place in a rather casual t-shirt just to find out that the place looks like a vintage brothel with overwhelming red lights, poles and sofa lounges. Couldn’t bear being there for more than 2 minutes so I just went outside to get my jacket back and went to a better place to spend my night at.

    So where do I begin ? I wish I could put less than one star for this terrible establishment, because quite frankly, they do not deserve that one star. In summary, I got beat up by the bouncers and humiliated by the staff. As soon as we arrived, the staff was rude to my friends and I, and they asked us to pay our entrance in cash (not cards) which I think was really weird since in the Netherlands, most payments are made by PIN. I took it a bit on the girl that was hanging the coats and felt bad so decided to apologize five minutes later. When I tried to apologize and said "Sorry I was being rude but..." the girl did not even let me finish my sentence that she said "yeah you were being very rude" with a very condescending voice. I asked why she did not wanted to accept my apology and that she is the one being rude herself. She snapped her fingers and two bouncers came to me and started to grab me violently. Now I am a chill guy of 1m80 that can barely defend myself, was a tall 1m90 dude and another guy necessary ? If you asked me to leave nicely I would have. While I tried to defend myself in panick they started to beat me and hit me in the face and sides of my body as well as in my legs, in front of everybody. Never in my life have I ever been that humiliated. As I was scrolling down the reviews I see that the bouncer who kicked me got some early complaints from other users, thank god that I see there is a picture of the exact same bouncer. Now I am going back tomorrow or later this week to talk to a manager or the owner and resolve this issue internally. If they don't cooperate I will have to file a complaint to the police against this club. I have been clubbing for 2 years now in various countries and more especially in various clubs in Amsterdam and I have never been treated that direspectfully. It is not because you are a bouncer that you get to beat up people. This is assault not doing your job. It is not your club and it does not give you the right to treat people like trash bags. I was not even that disrepectful to the staff, I just told them they were rude to newcomers. Attached is a picture of the same bouncer that somebody took a picture of with similar complaints by a different user. I don't get why you keep such unwelcoming staff in a club.

    What a surprise! We were looking for a local club playing house music that wouldn't be pretentious or full of tourists. This is exactly what we were hoping to find. Great music, met some locals, and had an all around great experience. It was similar to the club I frequent at home, but better. Come here for a great local experience and some great house music.

    Went on Thursday for a techno show but didn’t stay long. Music wasn’t exactly what I was expecting. Not much in the sense of mixing or transitions. It was just one song after the next. lots of people behind the DJ booth taking selfies Smoking is also allowed inside so the entire bar will be foggy and full of smoke. Can’t breathe

    A very odd vibe for women. They had weird regulations about jumpers - apparently fleeces weren't allowed (because they look more like coats than jumpers), and they were 'fine' with other jumpers unless tied around your waist?! When we got in it was 99% men which made us very uncomfortable, and also most of them had jackets on!

    (Translated by Google) Disgusting tent. We wanted to go inside with a group of 5 people. We were refused because there were no ladies. When we asked what this was about, it was suggested to 'talk alongside'. I will never return here. (Original) Walgelijke tent. Wij wilden met een groepje van 5 man naar binnen. Wij werden geweigerd omdat er geen dames bij waren. Toen wij vroegen waar dit op sloeg werd er voorgesteld om 'hiernaast even te gaan praten'. Ik kom hier nooit meer terug.

  • 1/5 Saule K. 1 year ago on Google
    Being into techno and electronic music, i expected good music on Thursday by East Collective. But unfortunately left disappointed. 1. Music was boring. Dj had it on auto play and rather enjoyed himself clapping hands and filming himself. 2. It smelled like smoke very badly. People smoked on the dancefloor including DJ's.3. Bar has no price and waiters have an attitude. 4. 11 euro's wasted. At least get the music off the Auto-Play..

    The worst club in amsterdam. I'd like to give this club a 0 star review but sadly I can't. The bouncer and club scammed us of 90 euro purchase. Never go this club ever again.

    We had a great time at Club NL. Small but glamorous, with great music for dancing, and very cool atmosphere--red lights and disco balls. The staff is welcoming and the clientele relaxed, which makes for a good party!

    I was planning to go this place because I read the reviews and saw the photos. So I went around midnight and security/ bouncer told us we couldn't go in because it wasn't full yet. So I ask him could we last least go inside a get a beer and we wait. He said no and he shoo us away.

    Went here for the 1st time , fun was had, dance was danced... super friendly crew and diverse crowd, good sound quality safe and warm atmosphere. One (1) small point of improvement for the 5th star; purchase a few bottles of good quality old style local jenever such as wynand, oorlam, rute, zuidam or such... Will be back here .

    Were denied entry even though we bought tickets online. No refund possible due to "I don't have anything to due with online". Guy at the door clearly missed some braincells and was unable to communicate in a proper manner. AVOID.
