Four Elements Hotel - Amsterdam

4-star eco-friendly hotel in Amsterdam with natural air conditioning powered by wind, sun, and water

Sustainability & Groundbreaking Engineering

Four Elements Amsterdam is the first hotel in the world to use a climate machine based on termite mounds. The Bronsema system uses wind and sun for air circulation, and falling water moisturizes or dries the air while heating or cooling it. Guests experience a 100% sustainable hotel where every aspect, from energy to circular materials, is designed to be energy-neutral and environmentally sound.

Rooms come with balconies offering water views, and the building has lifts and wheelchair-accessible common areas.

Restaurant FIVE serves seasonal farm-to-table dishes prepared with local products for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The open-air Rooftop Sky Bar provides panoramic lake views and live music on weekends, with a waterside terrace for outdoor seating. Breakfast includes a comprehensive buffet with healthy and local options, including a granola station and made-to-order fried eggs.
