The staff was fantastic! Breakfast was delicious. They even made our eggs to order ☺️. Thankfully there was a couple walking into the hotel when we were trying to check in otherwise we wouldn't have known what to do.

It’s a very unique way to stay in Amsterdam, but we enjoyed it a lot! The staff are lovely and welcoming, as was the breakfast and rooms. The rooms were slightly small - but that’s expected for a boat! It was in a great location, perfect for visiting all the great places in the city.

We enjoyed our stay on this boat. As we own our own boat we completely understand that cabins are smaller than a hotel room; with not much in the way of storage space, but for the amount of time we required a room it was perfect. Staff were helpful and very kind. Breakfast was superb. Everything was within walking distance for the most part and we purchased an IAmsterdam Pass at the tourist office which included public transport so anything further was still easily accessible. Advice to anyone going here is to not let the taxi driver tell you it is not easy for him to access and we could easily walk to the docks. Without luggage there would be no problem but in the dark, in high winds and not really certain about where we should go we had a slightly unpleasant experience in finding the docks initially. Had it not been for some helpful young people we may have gotten quite lost. The taxi driver just didn't want a short trip with a small amount of earning. Had we not been so tired we would have gotten his cab number and reported him but we didn't think about that at the time. Our return journey from ship to train station went without a hitch and the taxi arrived at the dock on time so no hauling heavy suitcases around.
