The show will be held in a completely heat controlled room which was made available by Discus Center Amsterdam.

Hi all,

Within a few months we finally will have: the 1st Bettas4all show :D!!

As many people will have to come from far it is off course possible to stay in Amsterdam during the Bettas4all show. As the costs of booking a hotel for 2 nights in Amsterdam during this period is pretty expensive, we (Joep + Debby, Ilse, Donny, Annieka + Thijs en Marion Schultheiss) made a booking in a nearby youth hostel (at ~1,3 km from the showlocation).
The Shelter Jordan
Bloemstraat 179,
1016 LA Amsterdam
The Netherlands
Phone: +31 (0)20 62 44 717
Fax: +31 (0)20 62 76 137



Males and female will sleep in separate dorms. A booking of 2 nights (Friday 25/08/06 and Saturday 26/08/06) will cost ~50 euro per person. When you are interested you have to make a booking yourself. More information about this can be found at the website of the youth hostel: www.shelter.nl
When you are interested to sleep in the same male/female dorms as our group you can send a request after you booked by sending an e-mail to: reservation@jordan.shelter.nl by mentioning the name of our group (Bettas4all) and our bookingnumber: (B11A6D).

When you prefer a hotel, the following option could be a nice suggestion (at ~2,3 km from the showlocation: www.hoteldamsterdam.com
