About Lucky Lake Hostel
SORRY WE'RE CLOSED FROM SEPTEMBER 28TH TILL APRIL1ST 2010!
Come and experience a holiday from your holiday. Lucky Lake offers one of the most unique hostelling experience in Europe whilst maintaining the lowest
prices in Amsterdam.
For those who are tired of stuffy dorms, overcrowded communal areas and soulless, sterile ccommodation, Lucky Lake can be a wonderful change. As well as offering several new cabins, four bed dorms, the bulk of Lucky Lakes accommodation is made up of CARAVANS(trailers) arranged to a form a fantastic hostel. These caravans are great for travelling couples looking for a few days of privacy as well as groups of two looking for a break from million bed dorms and snoring roommates. After a dynamic day in the city it feels like coming home in the relaxed atmosphere of our hostel!
New in 2009!: nice, colorfull, wooden CABINS decorated in their own unique style!:
(Please note that at the moment it is only possible to book CARAVANS/DORMS and the 3-bed CABIN online. To make a reservation for a 2p-CABIN you will need to write us an email at info@luckylake.nl. If you want to know the price of a 2p-cabin just add 2 euro per person per night to the caravan price on the date you want to stay).
Lucky Lake prides itself on its great location, right next to the Vinkeveense Plassen, a HUGE manmade lake where you can swim, kayak, boat, fish, sail, scuba dive and frolic to your heart's content. Lucky Lake is also a cycling and walking enthusiasts dream, with miles of bike and walking trails leading you through the gorgeous Dutch country-side. Bikes are for hire directly from the hostel, but if you are not the sporty type then Lucky Lake is also ideal for just kicking back on a hammock and taking a day out from museums and walking tours.
The price one pays for being in such an amazing location is that Lucky Lake is situated further from the city than most hostels. However travelling to and from the hostel from Amsterdam is easy. There are regular Metros from Amsterdam Centraal to Holendrecht (17 min). Lucky Lake provides a shuttle bus to and from Holendrecht Metro station (7 min) at a small cost (1 euro each way)! Thus for those who are looking for a one night stop for partying and discovering Amsterdam's nightlife, Lucky Lake may not be the most suitable choice given its proximity to the city.
In 2008 we have build a new reception, lounge, three four-bed dorms and an outdoor kitchen. There are some food items available in the hostel shop
and there are two supermarkets in nearby Abcoude. Every morning we serve a nice and simple breakfast and you can use our internet for FREE! The staff are here for you and are always willing to provide you with any information you need regarding your holiday. Altogether this makes for a wonderfully social environment with an unbeatable atmosphere.
