Ruby Emma Hotel & Bar

Live music has filled the hotel bar since Ruby Emma first opened. During ADE, the rhythm picks up beneath the sweeping sails that rise above the entrance.

Wind-powered gadgets, hand-wound machines and pedal-driven contraptions give the venue an offbeat backdrop. Downstairs, the bar keeps the night moving. Upstairs, seriously comfortable beds wait for the final track to fade.

You’ll find Ruby Emma a 15-minute metro ride from Amsterdam Centraal. Prefer two wheels? The Amstel cycle path leads towards the city centre.
