How is it in Amsterdam during New Year's? I'm going Dec 28th-Jan 4th. Just want to know what to expect. And what I shouldn't miss. How are the people there? Has anyone heard anyting about Le Meridien Apollo ,Hotel De Gerstekorrel, or Heart of Amsterdam? Which place is best of the three for two guys in their low 20's looking to party? Thanks in advance.
hi ,we were in amsterdam new years eve last year,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,it was fantastic!!!! the atmosphere was crazy,we headed towards dam square 1st where they hold a concert it gets so packed and everybody has a bottle of champagne they r swigging out of,you can buy them in the street really cheap.we ended upin a cofee shop calledthe stones for a while where they had a dj,and headed back to the square after,,,the music was cheesy but it was cool ,there were fireworks goin off left right and centre!,be so careful,the dutch police didnt seem to mind.but overall it was prob one of the best new years ever!
I' m heading to AMS from 12/28-1/5 also solo for New Year's...please share any info you get and I'll do the same...I also posted query on this site! I'm a 20 something Florida girl looking for some partying too! Enjoy!
I'm heading to Ams myself just for New Years Eve!!! Going all by myself while returning to Greece from US trip. Do any of u know if this is a good idea or will everyone be in their crowds partying in "private" groups???
if you are travelling by yourself i would suggest staying in one of amsterdams great hostels. haven't gone solo myself yet but whenever we are over we always meet people in the hostel and end up bringing them out for a party. from what i've seen, most 'private groups' will make an effort to include solo travellers in their fun. you might struggle to get a bed at a hostel at this stage though. try flying pig uptown/downtown, hostel meetingpoint or the bulldog hostel. the bulldog seems to get slated all over the internet but i thought it was great for the location and price. the weed aint great but the rooms were fairly nice.
Hi Guys, I will be in AMS the 29th, 30th, and leaving on the 31st. I am traveling alone so if anyone wants to hang out just PM me. This is my first time to AMS, just looking to sample what the city has to offer.
