Anyone been to Hamburg or Amsterdam?

[swordfish1 10]

Thinking of going in January with a few friends. Not into the waccy baccy (etc), so seem to be veering towards Hamburg.

Anyone got any views on which is better for a group of lads on a boozy 4 days away?

There's still plenty to do in Amsterdam without even setting foot in a coffeeshop.

 

Museums, the home of Heineken, great parks, the sex museum. It's not an entire city covered by a smoky cloud. I loved it, a liberal paradise.

Never been to Hamburg, but agree with the Caveman that there's plenty to do in Amsterdam that doesn't involve pot. Loads of very good lively bars - and the Heineken museum is interesting (finishes off in a big beer hall with free beer!). I love Amsterdam.

been to both my preference would be Amsterdam the biggest reason would be that it is a lot cheaper both to get there and your money will go further in AMSTERDAM and if you are ging on a boozy weekend you wont remember much of the sites to be seen anyaway

Amsterdam every time for me. Just been for a week and had a riot. Great museums and architecture, casino is very good, loads of bars, redlight district, every kind of restuarant.

 

Hamburg I find a bit more sleazy or dirty or cheap in some way.

And that's why it's so great!

Try Prague, Czech Republic.

I've been to Amsterdam loads of times, it's perfect for a boozed up lads break. No-one mentioned it yet on this thread, but the Red-Light district is a must see, and lots of bars in that area as well.

Neither, go Barcelona and catch a match, or Dublin and catch the guiness. Top cities.
