Pakhuis de Zwijger Review

Nice location for interesting lectures and other activities. In most cases, the public can actively participate if you wish. There is also a nice cafe and plenty of bicycle sheds

Easily accessible conference location in Amsterdam. Beautiful large spaces for holding workshops and presentations. The stairs are less pleasant and remind you of the original function of the building. Easily accessible by public transport, as well as by car. There are enough parking garages in the area; these are pricey.

We used the meeting facilities and they are very good. There is a lot of space and all the things you need for a presentation are present. They have a good and flexible catering, and tech support if you need it. Location can easily be reached from Central Station and two stops with the tram to IJburg. As a bonus they have these large windows with a beautiful view.
Short addition: I just got the bill and was surprised by some costs, like catering staff and technical staff. They did next to nothing but I was charged hundreds of euros. So my advice is to make clear agreements.

An excellent example of a public platform on which to discuss pressing social issues ... Pa the venue is awesome

Super nice place to reflect on a changing society. Always current and beautiful evenings about the digital society. Also a cozy bar where you can meet afterwards. Always go back home inspired.

Few vegan options and not very interesting. There are no vegan deserts.

It is a great pity that it is closed in the weekend

Really nice water side location, good conference facilities, really nice bar, very friendly atmosphere

Hip Amsterdam cafe with activities agenda. Prices fairly unparalleled with competitors.

I had a experience on one occasion and was very crowded. Food was good.

Great offer! Lots of meetings to visit and docs to view!

Pakhuis De Zwijger is a nicely scaled congresscentre, on the shore of het IJ, a 20 minutes walk from Amsterdam CS.
This used to be an old warehouse, it is renovated and integrated with the renewed surrounding part of northern Amsterdam. Great views inside out, all equipped for your seminar or gettogether. Staff will surely come up with creative solutions to your request. And you are welcome for food and drinks at the bar downstairs with terras as well.

Very friendly staff, good tea and cookies at the restaurant, nice place to organize bigger team events, easily fits 130 people.

I was in a warehouse all day during a conference. Nice atmosphere, friendly staff and clean spaces. Audio and visual also did well. Great place for conferences and the like. Within walking distance of the central station. You can also take the tram. Nearby is a tram stop.

Cozy restaurant with a tasty varied menu! The burger we ordered was very tasty!

Excellent meeting location or conference room. Easily accessible by public transport. Facilities nothing special, just good, as expected.

Service was a bit grumpy and disinterested. The menu was adjusted because it was a busy day (?) So there was really very little choice for dinner. A pizza margherita with cold mozzarella does not really warm you.
A really nice building, nice location and nice interior. Cozy appearance

Nice location for Grenzeloos Amsterdam meeting but needs attention for handrails in stairwell

Nice for workshops. Multifunctional spaces. Good catering.

Was very well looked after. My first decaffeinated lactose free Cappacino.

Good food and a view of the IJ from the window. Varied menu. Delicious French fries at Hamburger.

Our motherland looked from Shamira Raphaela, what a docu you should see

Always a relaxed atmosphere and great to use as a venue for conferences. Nearby central station

Nice location, centrally located, ideal for meetings, gatherings, presentations and so on. You can park in the nearby underground parking garage.

A great place for a business meeting or a business lunch. The coffee is top notch and the staff are very helpful and kind. The location is just out of Centrum in a good way and it s not long of a metro ride. The interior design was also very well done.

Nice location with Dutch best broadcasting somersault

Very interesting topics are being discussed here! Who owns the city?

Beautiful culture stage. Magistral building between all new buildings.

Good food selection, and nice views across the river.

Nice event space, we had a little conference there for about 100 people. Not too big though.

Nice location for a drink and the documentary s they show are for free, since they show many there is always one for your interest!

Beautiful location, seats in the large 2nd floor room were somewhat woody ..

After 40 years in the developing world, Amsterdam was the only native Dutch option to retire to. Pakhuis helps me retain links to the rest of the world, and also learn modern Netherlands.

a nice meetup about the alpha man and how men should deal with feelings

Great event venue! The space feels intimate despite the fact that there were 300+ attendees at my conference.

Was there for a conference, great place to and easy parking all around.

Not very inclusive
Everything is left and progressive ''

great place with super good staff. food in restaurant is delicious.

Very nice industrial location. Cool layout and pleasant how multifunctional the location is

A very rich cultural centre full of events, lectures, debates & much more

Perfect location for suse expert day. Very well cared for.

Abundant events on the highly urgent topic of sustainability. Subjects range from the energy transition to 'do it yourself'-solutions to tackle climate change. Calendar is on their website. Worth a visit.

I visited the large room on the second floor. Very suitable for presentations for full halls. Good sound installation and projections on three walls. It pays when organizers make the effort to use the audiovisual resources optimally. Small elevator and narrow stairs. Little can be done about it. But the coffee can be better. Nice bar downstairs. Easily accessible by public transport and bicycle.

Good place for meetings, especially the large room is impressive. All facilities available.

Great location for talks and presentations on plenty of topics, from city development to cultural diversity and much more.
Be sure to check out their program. Good to know that lots of talks are free to join.
Kind staff and a decent restaurant.

We have organized many meetings for Social Media club Amsterdam. A nice place with good food.

Two friends and myself started making radio here, saturdays at 5-7 pm. Loads of fun and good facilities.

Amazing place because they organise all sorts of meet-ups which are completely free! Very educational, very nicely cell to meet truly interesting people plus a nice place to have great crafted beers.

We stumbled across this place as we needed the bathroom. The staff were super friendly and we had fun watching the match together, as they worked! Lovely food! Really chilled and very nice vibe!

Beautiful place, nice & very customer-friendly staff in the restaurant and very interesting lectures. The graphic design is controversial, just like the IJ Amsterdam itself. Come here very much! (Although I have to travel 2 hours here myself.)

Interesting lectures and delicious food in an inspiring atmosphere
