Lucky Lake Hostel Reviews

The right place for the right people ))

The staff were excellent - friendly, efficient and helpful. It's hard to see how the hostel could be improved!

Lucky Lake has great staff, good facilities and accomodations, ans a relaxed atmosphere at western European prices. It is, however, pretty far from Amsterdam itself, but a shuttle brings you to a transit station where you can get a train to the city.

Love the concept and idea. Had a fantastic time during our stay. Perhaps, moving forward for improvement, Lucky Lake could consider organising activities or tours in daily or bi daily basis. Of cos with a price. This could be helpful for newcomers or during foul weather. Ie. Amsterdam city tour, trip to village n windmills or night tour to the RLD. Definitely recommend to my friends. Awesome lively n friendly staffs. Excellent!

Incredible! Such a cool and atypical hostel. If you're looking for a place near Amsterdam but away from the craziness, Lucky Lake is worth its own visit. Wish we'd planned to spend less time in the city, but we'll definitely be back. Staff is super helpful. Met a load of interesting guests. Facilities were all clean and functional. Cozy set-up. Only difficulty was taking the proper metro back to the Lucky Lake station.

Loved this place. My stay at lucky lake was the highlight of my trip! In my experience, being out of the city centre means a better time had by all and that is so true for this hostel. Its about 20 minute train ride and 15 minute 1€ hostel shittle into the city. The rooms are doubles which are cute made up caravans. I loved the atmosphere and the staff are like friends! Have fun being Dutch in amsterdam living it up by the lake, smoking in the lucky lounge or taking a bike to the local town :D

This hostel was paradise ! The caravans were clean and the bathrooms were always clean and facilities were new. There were fridges you could store your food and an outdoor kitchen to use. Staff was amazing and so helpful any question or concern they were always willing to help. They even heated up our food for us ! The atmosphere of lucky lake was so calm and relaxing. A little out of the way but there is a shuttle that will take you to the metro for a euro each way/person

I stayed 3 nights at Lucky Lake and I found it super! The people that there work are always willing to help. The hostel is 30 min away from Amsterdam, but it is not a problem at all. The place where the hostel is located is great. Near by there is a lake and a lot of nature, which is super to relax after a long day walking around the streets of Amsterdam. "Smokers"are welcomed here. The ducks run around freely and they behave like dogs asking for food. I enjoyed my stay here. 100% recommended

I loved the hostel and wished the weather had been better! I'll be back for sure.

Very original hostel. Many services and beautiful location. The breakfast was really nice. Recommendable if you are staying in a warm season. In winter this must be like staying in a freezer because the showers and the toilets are separated from the rooms, outside. There is a transport service to get you to the nearest metro station (although you have to pay 1€ aprox.). This is really good, because the hostel is quite far from the center of Amsterdam. Best Price/quality relationship.

How I wish I could try the breakfast they offered, even one day!

A real recommendation if you are into the busy life of Amsterdam but enjoy the escape and relaxing atmosphere of Lucky Lake! we went by car and is by far the easiest and cheapest way to visit Amsterdam because you can go by metro to the city centre. the caravans are awesome, off course not huge, but that's all part of the experience. the lounche area and kitchen and reception are perfect. also the breakfast and possible snacks are all very good. you can tell they are not after your money!

this is really a fantastic place with caravan around.The room is quiet clean,definatley value for the money. Even it is a little bit far away from central,30mins away,it is still highly recommended.I will live there if i go to amsterdam again.

Staff was really friendly, breakfast was awesome, and the vibes that you get from the whole place is just amazingly relaxing. Would definitely, DEFINITELY recommend to anyone who is planning to go for a holiday in Amsterdam. Best hostel I've ever stayed at in Amsterdam for sure.

Amazing place and excellent staff, 100 % recommended! I will back soooon!!!

The room is very small. It is cold at night as there is no proper heating facilities. Moreover, the bathroom and toilets are outside your room which are shared by all people, sometimes you may wait in a long queue for grooming. All in all, this hostel is not convenient for guests.

It's a big problem to come back to the hotel after midnight. And it's almost impossible to go there walking from the closest station> Think twice about the hostel's location before picking it up. We ended up paying a lot for transportation. For example, we paid 35 euros taxi to take us from a nearby metro station to the hostel at 2am. Basically, between 1 am and 8 am, taxi is the only way to get there. A bit problematic, considering everything is closed in Amsterdam after 4am.

Thanks for a lovely time. The cabins are great and so is being able to get out in the countryside a bit while still being close to Amsterdam. A lot of people never seemed to leave(even to make it to the lake!) but it's actually a really nice location for a bit of space to explore and easy to get into town too. I'd definitely consider coming back.

Good deal for the money, very clean and nice sized rooms. I would warn all solo travelers though that this is more of a "couples" hostel due to the large number of two person campers and it may be harder to meet people than normal hostels.

The staff was very friendly and helped with everything we asked of them. The shuttle was very convenient, the facilities were kept clean, and everything was in fine working order. We had a wonderful time and will definitely stay there when we visit Amsterdam again.
