Welcome to NY Basement
Exciting cocktails and culinary creations in the atmosphere of pre-war Manhattan. Stylish ornaments and colorful patterns. An equally hip and historic interior. NY Basement is a trendy restaurant and cocktail bar in the basement of our nostalgic and characteristic building on the head of the Wilhelminapier.

Exclusive rental
NY Basement is the fine dining restaurant at Hotel New York. It is smaller, more exclusive, and more intimate than the well-known restaurant on the ground floor. As guests descend the “stairway to history,” they step back in time, as if this restaurant has always been there. With its ambiance, quality, and service, NY Basement is the ultimate Rotterdam hotspot for drinks with colleagues, a dinner with family, friends, or business partners, or an unforgettable party during a corporate event or wedding. Let’s go ‘Back to the Base’!
