Lock in a great price for The Lancaster Hotel Amsterdam – rated 8 by recent guests!

to get started.

Great location, right next to the zoo. Pretty close to the center, but far enough away from the busy, noisy parts. Very close to a park, which is nice if you enjoy running. The room was nice and clean, and the staff was friendly. Nice breakfast options, really enjoyed that they had actual fresh orange juice, and not the pasteurized stuff that hotels usually have.

Ana, Romania

liked the ease of checking in and out. The location of the hotel was also very good.

Dave, United Kingdom

Nice location next to a university campus. The staff was friendly and helpful and put up well with some very specific requests (thank you). The room was definitely nicer than I expected. I would probably not think twice about staying here again if I were to return to Amsterdam.

Cristina, United States of America

The property was very very clean and quiet , staff were very helpful

Colleen, United Kingdom

Excellent hotel! Has a lift which is rare in hotels at Europe

Niren, United States of America

For Amsterdam, the quality of the lodging (size and elegance of the room, comfort of the bed) were really well-priced (Amsterdam prices are high - in some other city one might expect more for the same price). The staff was friendly and the check-in system was nice. You can get breakfast as late as 11:00 AM, and you can decide to do so as a same-day decision (that said, there are good nearby breakfast options). Not that Amsterdam is generally hard to navigate in terms of getting around, but the location is very convenient despite the fact that it doesn't exactly lie on the center of the map, because the 14 tram runs from Central Station to basically the hotel's doorstep.

Cristina, United States of America

Hotel is excellent! Real value for money! Great room size, location is perfect as well! Not even one negative thing

Dragana, Serbia

The restaurant and bar attached (bird house) are very nice, good atmosphere.

Very loud, partying from other customers, you could hear everything from the room. Cleaning was average, water was left in the boiler, no soap in the shower, tea cup not cleaned up. Walls need to be refreshed.

Drunk people at night making a lot of noise, they even tried to get inside my room. Reception didn't do anything, I literally couldn't sleep. The Pillow are horrible, I stayed 2 nights there, I almost left this hotel after the 1st night hoping it will be better the second night but it was the same.

It was very cold in the room, heater even on the maximum could not warm the room to any comfortable temperature. Shower curtain was not of a proper length, the entire bathroom floor got flooded every time using the shower, very annoying. No way to reach reception from the room - nobody picked up the calls nor replied to text messages (there was a mobile phone provided with a note to text for any requests), always have to go down to talk to someone.
The restaurant was nice. Self-service check in/out
