Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
In Lamu, an impressive selection of over 56 properties awaits you, so you're sure to find something perfect for you! Whether you're looking for a luxury hotel with full service, an independent apartment in the heart of the city, or a cozy guesthouse with local character, our offer will meet your expectations. Such diversity guarantees that you'll match the accommodation to your travel style and budget.
Absolutely! Lamu offers plenty of attractions for travelers of all ages. To find the perfect place for your family, use our filters. You can search for properties offering family rooms or adjoining rooms for more convenience. Apartments with a kitchen are also a great choice for independence. Many hotels provide baby cots upon request. Remember to check the property's specific policy regarding children on its page – you'll easily find all the necessary information there.
Most hotels in Lamu accept major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard). However, remember that in Germany, cash (
Bargeld) is still popular, especially in smaller guesthouses. Cancellation policies vary depending on the offer. Cheaper rates are often non-refundable, while flexible options allow for free cancellation until a specific date. Always check the exact terms listed for your chosen room before finalizing your booking – everything is clearly described there!
Getting around Lamu is convenient thanks to well-organized public transport. In most German cities, all transport (buses, trams, local trains) operates under a single ticket system. Instead of buying single tickets for each ride, consider a day ticket (
Tageskarte), which is often the most cost-effective option for tourists. Very important: Remember to validate (entwerten) your single or day ticket in a stamping machine before starting your first journey. An unvalidated ticket is not valid!
We understand that plans can change! The easiest way to manage your booking is by using the link in your booking confirmation email. Whether you can cancel or change your dates for free depends on the policy of the offer you chose. 'Free cancellation' offers allow changes up to a certain deadline, while 'non-refundable' rates usually do not. You will find all the specific details and deadlines in your confirmation.
Parking in the center of Lamu can be a challenge, so it's worth planning ahead. Many hotels offer private parking spaces for guests, but the number is often limited and extra charges may apply. The easiest way to find these properties is by using our 'Parking' filter. Important tip: Check if Lamu is located in an environmental zone (
Umweltzone). Entering such zones requires a special sticker (Umweltplakette) on your car's windshield to avoid a fine.
Don't worry, you'll manage perfectly fine! In Lamu, especially in hotels, restaurants, and main attractions, English is widely spoken. To feel even more confident, we recommend:
- Using translator apps: Smartphone apps can translate text from menus or signs using your camera.
- Learning a few phrases: A simple 'Hallo' (Hello), 'Danke' (Thank you), and 'Bitte' (Please) will be very well received.
- Downloading offline maps: Place names in map apps are often available in multiple languages, making navigation easier.
Of course! Lamu is a friendly city for travelers with pets. To find the perfect hotel or apartment, the easiest way is to use our 'Pets allowed' filter on our website. However, keep a few things in mind: many properties charge an extra fee for a pet's stay, and some may have restrictions on the size or number of pets. It's always a good idea to read the specific policy on the hotel's page before booking.
Of course! To save on accommodation in Lamu, regularly check our site for special offers and use the 'sort by price' option. Beyond hotel savings, it's worth looking for a city tourist card (like the Berlin WelcomeCard in Berlin). Such cards often offer free public transport and attractive discounts for museums and popular attractions. It's a great way to see more for less!
