Weekend break in Amsterdam
Booked a single room for a two-night weekend stay. The room is small but perfectly comfortable for a solo traveller, and there are plenty of clever little shelves and storage, plus everything you'd expect from a decent hotel (TV, Nespresso machine, even a complimentary bottle of water). I actually really liked it. Bathroom was also small and perhaps just a little too much so, with not much space to dry after shower etc. But again it did the job; walk-in shower with curtain, hairdryer, couple of shelves and two hooks on the door. Staff were very friendly on check-in and check-out. I didn't have breakfast so can't comment (only because I was meeting friends elsewhere for breakfast). Apparently they do bike hire too but again I didn't use it. Location was about 20 mins walk from the centre, Centraal station etc, and a pleasant enough walk day and night. I would definitely recommend the Lancaster and would stay there again.

Although the hotel had a pretty nice and modern check-in/out system, and staff was friendly, I found it a bit disappointing for a four star. There were gummies on the floor of the room, and the pillows were dirty inside. The bathroom was terribly small and crowded and the room was so so cold. Even though I was showed how to increase the heating in the room on the second day, it was still so cold over night. On a brighter side, you can do the check-in online before you arrive, and it’s next to the tram and the zoo. There was a mini-fridge, safe, kettle, hairdryer, etc.

This is a friendly place in a university part of town. Good eateries locally and a really positive feel in the area and close to metro and tram. You can walk into town in 20-30 mins. I stayed for a week for work and found it a friendly place.

This was my partners first time away and the hotel was 10/10, every problem we had was solved easy and the staff were lovely and was happy to help with everything. The location was perfect and could easily access town centre either by tram or walking. The room was clean everyday and the peacefulness of the hotel and location was amazing. If we ever come back to Amsterdam this hotel is where we will be staying. Thankyou so much to staff for making my partners first trip so amazing and definitely will be coming back soon :)

The location of the hotel and its surrounding area were beautiful. It wasn’t too busy or too quiet and the journey to the centre is quick whether you’re walking or on a bike and loads of restaurants and cafes nearby. We were given a room in the basement which wasn’t great at all and such a shame because the view was a selling point for the hotel. It should be made clear that you could potentially get basement room. I asked to swap but unfortunately was told there were no rooms available. There was very little natural light let into the room and the view was of pebbles and stones. Guests that are made to stay in the basement should get a voucher for the restaurant or a complimentary drink at the bar. Luckily we were out most of the day. Loved that you could rent bikes from the hotel! So convenient but make sure you are sent the bike rental policy and physically shown how to use the bike before setting off.

The room we stayed in was very small, with a tiny bathroom. I could barely move in there. It was also very warm in the room and there was no way to change a thermostate. However, the room was clean and breakfast was good. The rooms just really need an upgrade if you compare it to the rest of the hotel.
