Ruby Emma Hotel Amsterdam is a stylish 4-star lifestyle hotel by Ruby Hotels, part of IHG, set on a bend of the Amstel river in the riverside Amstelkwartier in Amsterdam's Overamstel district.

Opened in 2022 as Ruby's first hotel in the Netherlands, the property occupies a striking sustainable building — formerly QO Amsterdam — that rises across eighteen floors and was the first in Europe to earn LEED Platinum certification, with geothermal energy generation and a smart facade of automatic solar sails at the heart of its design.

The hotel offers 291 guest rooms in six categories, ranging from the compact Cosy and twin-bedded Mate rooms to the light-filled Lovely and dog-friendly Wow rooms, the spacious Loft rooms with a bathtub, and the residential Resident rooms with a separate living area, each finished in Ruby's signature Lean Luxury style with soundproofed walls, plush bedding, rainfall showers, iPad room controls and a Marshall amplifier.

A twelve-metre bar anchors the three-storey lobby, serving signature cocktails and local beers by day and hosting live music nights, while sustainable touches run throughout, from refillable Ruby Care products to carpets woven from recycled fishing nets.

Set in the up-and-coming Amstelkwartier beside the Amstel, Ruby Emma is a short walk from Spaklerweg metro station and roughly nine minutes by Metro from Amsterdam Centraal, with the RAI Exhibition and Congress Centre and the lively De Pijp district close at hand, and Amsterdam Schiphol Airport approximately 14 kilometres away, making it a well-connected base for corporate groups, business travel and incentive stays.

Ruby Emma Hotel Amsterdam — dog-friendly Wow room

Ruby Emma Hotel Amsterdam pairs a lifestyle hotel with Ruby Luuk, a bright co-working space set over three floors within the same building, creating a distinctive setting for meetings, workshops and business gatherings in Amsterdam's Amstelkwartier.

Ruby Luuk offers individually designed meeting rooms for groups of six to seventy people, equipped with screens, whiteboards and high-speed WiFi and bookable by the hour, alongside hot desks, co-working tables and private offices, with unlimited barista coffee and sweeping views over the city.

For receptions and social events, the hotel's green 24-hour bar and lobby can be taken for exclusive use, accommodating up to 200 guests standing or 60 seated, with a dedicated buffet and bar area, background music via Ruby Radio and the option of live music acts.

Group room bookings are welcomed from ten rooms upwards, and with its riverside Amstel views, award-winning sustainable building and easy Metro connections, Ruby Emma is a characterful choice for corporate meetings, team days and incentive programmes in Amsterdam.
