The Faralda Hotel in Amsterdam is without doubt the most special hotel in the city of Amsterdam. Faralda is namely an old crane at the NDSM shipyard. The views from the rooms (and the hot tub!) Is phenomenal. The rooms are unique and luxurious and that’s a good thing. Because if you are staying at Faralda then you do not really want out.

The crane has three 5-star suites and a Panoramic lounge, suitable for high end corporate and music events. The most recognized brands and the best DJ’s in the world discovered the crane for their events, brand-activations, boardroom, festivals, (management) training, product presentations, streaming and audience reach. Louis Vuitton, Heineken, Villeroy & Boch, Grohe, Samsung, Red Bull, James Bond and many others brands. The exposure is worldwide and unlimited.

Two panorama elevators provide access right into the top of the crane.

  • PANORAMA LOUNGE
  • 3 X DESIGN SUITES (Free Spirit, Secret, Mystique)
  • SPA POOL (on top deck; heated)

Every suite has its own identity and all three have a marvellous view.

The crane is situated on the banks of the river IJ and directly opposite the centre of Amsterdam. 5 years ago it took a lot of courage to restore and develop this former piece of crap. The NDSM ship wharf was abandoned that time.

The development was a multimillion- devouring project. The monumental landmark is famous due to the tremendous and expensive restoration project, the contemporary design and the amazing construction. The crane still turns in the wind. The production cost per suite are by far the most highest in the Netherlands.

Nowadays Crane Hotel Faralda is an iconic and a world famous landmark in the middle of the well-known NDSM quarter, the creative and innovative hub of art, culture and business. Many headquarters of famous companies found their way.
