Description
The Lloyd hotel has a rich history, dating from 1921. At that time the hotel was designed to accommodate the 'Koninklijke Hollandse Lloyd' a company that managed the South-America line for freighting and subsequently for passengers. During this time the hotel obtained the status of hotel whilst accommodating passengers in the waiting time between trips. The design and construction of the hotel were of grand prestige, increasing costs which eventually contributed to the bankruptcy of KHL. The result however, was a beautiful construction in the architectural style 'Amsterdamse School', with eclectic shapes and a stately appearance. The building has been used as a prison and as an artistic workshop. The beautiful listed building is nowadays equipped with all comfort and suitable for any kind of visit. The vast list of architects and artists involved is implemented throughout the whole hotel and blends function and splendour to form an enchanting experience.
Over 50 designers and artists have transformed the interior to a unique collection of arts. No room is alike and each room emanates an extraordinary atmosphere; from 'fold-open bathrooms' to a bath in the middle of the room. On top of this many of the rooms offer a beautiful view of the water, reminding you not to forget visiting the centre of Amsterdam. In the Lloyd Hotel a world of information can be requested at the 'Cultural Embassy', where directions towards cultural highlights are provided with great pleasure. Organising a meeting in any style and to any extent is easy at the Lloyd Hotel. With a capacity from 2 to 100 persons and the rich variety of rooms, which are scattered throughout the premises, any kind of meeting can be accommodated adequately.
