If you are a hard and dark techno person you might get disappointed in Shelter. Yes it’s a techno club and music can be very good but the atmosphere is not dark techno. It’s like you see people of ordinary clubs in the centre in a techno club 😝
Danced my feet off here for a great night out! Great customer service by bar staff, toilets relatively clean for how hectic it was! Great lighting, respectful security leaving peaceful dancing patrons to their partying. Will go back next time I need a good night in Amsterdam
Saturday night I was abused by the security.
I was standing at the entrance talking on my phone and two members of the security asked me to stand somewhere else (which I immediately did), and after 5 minutes a different member of security came along she screamed at me grabbed me by my arm and pushed me out.
It was a very violent way, I’m still speechless, just to clarify my weight is 55Kg the staff member was probably three times my own weight, there was really no need to be so aggressive against me, that was an abuse of power.
If you want have fun and feel safe in a club, this is a place to avoid, cause security seems to have fun hurting people that are physically not as strong as them.
I really think Police should be involved in this cause could be dangerous.

Very long queue outside (approx 1hr at 1am) even for ticket holders (people without tickets were getting in faster, ugh), crowd isn’t the best (tons of people here more to pose than to dance), water is super expensive, the staff isn’t welcoming. Music was a bit of a let down too, but I’m sure it’s good most other nights.
Wouldn’t recommend if you are used to chill, more underground techno clubs.

Pretty decent, welcoming small club - bring at least two 2 euro coin if going. They have lockers onsite, which ONLY accept 2 euro coins, which are great for locking up belongings. It was liberating to dance freely without holding on to stuff. The club has a no phone policy, which I personally enjoyed. I think it helped people be present with the music and each other. People generally are friendly but not invasive. As a female who went by herself, I felt safe dancing freely.
THE BEST CLUB I VISITED IN AMSTERDAM
A super place, hidden and with some incredible DJs. I had fun like never before.
if you go to amsterdam you have to have this place, under the street.

Love this place. Fairly new venue in Amsterdam but the sound system is great. Best on Friday and Saturday. Great vibe of people. Make sure to get tickets in advance so no door sale is required.
Got invitation from one of the friend, I was visited this club with my group of friends, 12 people, very nice place. A lot bad comments about security and staff, seems like is fake reviews , a lot of them so friendly and very cool people, nice talk with them. Also had a talk with female security she was nice, no rude at all. I think is the best techno club in Amsterdam! Highly recommended! For sure will back again!
