Generator Amsterdam | East area

I have some good memories of sleeping at the Generator in London and always loved staying there as it was a really affordable option on a good location for that time in my life. Generator Amsterdam will open in March in the Eastern part of town located in a former zoological university building. Close to the city centre, the new upcoming east area and the Oosterpark with the grand cafe De Tropen just around the corner.

Flexible and spacious social areas, filled with creative design from Dutch designers like Blom & Blom, Mooi and Studio Job, their wallpaper by NLXL can be found throughout the building. The former lecture hall is turned into an impressive chill-out lounge and bar, while the old library is now a relaxation and private events room. The basement and café are now dining destinations and the original boiler room has become a secret late night bar.

The Generator can accommodate 564 guests in 168 twin and quadruple rooms with incredible views on the surrounding and en-suite bathrooms. There is also one luxury apartment for six people with views of the park and a self-catered kitchen.

The Cool Collective | Oostpoort | Oost


Love to show you some new pictures made today at the The cool collective, located at Oostpoort, the shopping area in the Eastern part of town. Lots of new stores are opening in East and over the last week I have been looking around to see what stores are interesting to cover on the blog and  the APP and I hope to show you some more over the weekend.

Although there are only a few selected interior and home decor brands and the store is really big and has a pop up kind off feeling, it has a nice vibe and worth visiting if you happen to be in the area.

A good place for affordable fashion brands, lifestyle and vintage furniture by the Sample Club, ICatchyJan&Jacob and Frederik George who will have his workstation in the store making beautiful bags. Find brands like French Connection, Stoned Marble, Van Os Vintage Furniture Amsterdam, Monsak and Komoni.
