Hotel Rebrandings

The Hoxton, Amsterdam Lloyd opens Spring 2023

Following the success of The Hoxton's arrival in Amsterdam in 2015, the brand will return to the city in spring 2023 with a second property in the Eastern Docklands district, an area that's seen exciting changes in the last 10 years and offers a mix of modern architecture, waterside views, green parks and boutique shopping streets such as Javastraat and Czaar Peterstraat. Ennismore Design Studio have collaborated with Nicemakers, a local design studio who visualised The Hoxton's original Amsterdam hotel, to transform the iconic Lloyd Hotel into a Hoxton. The building has been a landmark in Amsterdam since 1921 and holds a rich and layered history, which will be honoured and reflected throughout the design process. The transformation will breathe fresh life into the building, embracing and elevating its original and listed architectural details, such as the stained-glass windows, timber panelling, wooden floors and tile setting out inspired by German Brick Expressionism, marking an exciting new chapter for the landmark building. The hotel will boast 136 bedrooms including a handful of new 'Biggy Bunk Up' category rooms with bunk beds; a light and airy ground floor lobby and restaurant; a large outdoor terrace; and The Apartment meeting and events space. The Hoxton's second Amsterdam hotel will complement the original: stylistically bold and different but with the same much-loved Hoxton buzz. The hotel promises to be a new destination for locals and curious tourists, who are keen to explore a different corner of the city, whilst only being a 10-minute cycle from Centraal Station and 15-minutes from its sibling on the Herengracht.
