Meeting rooms
Eight unique Meeting rooms in the city center.
StartDock offers five unique meeting rooms in the city centre of Amsterdam. In addition, we welcome you to our newly opened Rotterdam StartDock location, which offers three beautiful and bright meeting rooms for you and your guests.
The Amsterdam locations invite you to host your meeting or event from a classic Dutch meeting room, accompanied with a chandelier and view over the canal. In Rotterdam, you are sure to find yourself in one of the most beautiful areas of the city, overlooking the Maas.
Our rooms vary between a 2-person capacity up to 50 people. Please contact us via events@startdock.nl to learn more about the possibilities.

Marco Polo
Herengracht 420
The bravery of one ignites that of others. As a true entrepreneur, Marco Polo went where no others dared to go. This is why we chose to name our meeting room after him. The Marco Polo room is big, brightly lit and looking over the canal. It might inspire you just as the real Marco Polo can.
Neil Armstrong
Herengracht 420
Do you have the guts to set foot where no one else ever did? Neil Armstrong had the spirit to make a dent in the universe, quite literarily we might add. The footprints are still there. Do you want to set foot yourself in this classic Dutch 17th-century room? You can hold a meeting in The Neil Armstrong with up to 8 people.

Christopher Columbus
Keizersgracht 482
It doesn’t matter if you’re not the first. It matters how you deal with the arrival. If you are so good that everybody thinks you were there first, you did something quite well. You will not be the first to sit in this beautiful meeting room, you can feel the history around you, but you can make your time count. You can let about fourteen people in awe in a meeting room setup and about fourty during a lecture. Also, the Abel Tasman room is adjacent to the Christopher Columbus and can be connected to one another.
Abel Tasman
Keizersgracht 482
Go far, explore, and when you come back, make sure they name something after you, like an island and a sea. Even if not a lot of people know you, you can make a huge impact and get recognition for your work. Like Tasmania is an add-on for Australia, the Abel Tasman room is an add-on for the Christopher Columbus room as the wall between them can be opened. Or you can use it as a small meeting room on its own.

Vasco da Gama
Keizersgracht 482
Every company needs a frontrunner. One that leads the way, one that dares to take a risk, and one to ensure your position on the road he took. Vasco da Gama was Portugal’s powerhouse to their spicy trade. He lit up the road that was first shrouded in darkness. That same light is the trademark of this room. In this golden room, you can find ways that have not shown up on your map previously.
Willem Barentz
Keizersgracht 482
To stand still is to fall behind. You need to try new things to stay ahead. Experimentation also means possible failure and how you deal with this failure defines you. When your ship gets stranded on an island and you tear it down to build a house to survive, that is coping on a world-class level. The Willem Barentsz room is the modern experiment in the penthouse of a monumental building. It is slightly bigger than the other meeting rooms and has a separate sitting area.

Blaak
Westplein 12
Blaak unites. The weekly market is one of Rotterdam’s hotspots and with the recently build Markthal, Blaak has increased in popularity for people all over the world. Just as Blaak, we believe in uniting people and that great things come from getting together and sharing ideas. Which great ideas will come from your meeting at Blaak?
Coolsingel
Westplein 12
Coolsingel, the heart of the city. Important decisions are made from the Municipality building that is located here. Also a favorite place for many events every year. Take for example the yearly Rotterdam Marathon or the honouring of the Rotterdam Feyenoord club, after they became national champions in 2017. Coolsingel is where the city connects and where ideas come together.

Hofplein
Westplein 12
Hofplein, situated just at the very beginning, or end if you will, of Coolsingel is just another example of signature spots in the city. The famous fountain has been around for many years and has been a semi-illegal pond for hot days in summer or celebratory moments. Hofplein invites you to see the city centre from many perspectives in short time, as it’s home to one of the busiest roundabouts downtown. Nevertheless, everyone knows and many charise this signature spot.
