The boat offers a special atmosphere, is beautifully furnished and has everything you need - the owners and staff are exceptionally nice and make sure you have everything you need. Can only recommend to stay here!
GermanyKind staff, clean rooms, AMAZING breakfast and delicious and cheap cocktails in the lobby. The coronavirus rules were good and clearly communicated. Rooms were cozy and the bed was adjustable in softness.
NetherlandsThe boat was moored in an ideal location, in a quiet spot but within a short and pleasant walk of historic Dordtrecht's centre and main attractions. Parking was a stone's throw away in a secure lock-up public car-park garage. The owner and staff could not have been more welcoming and helpful. The boat had a large, airy, saloon with ample space and a well-stocked bar. Breakfast was vast, varied and delicious. As one would expect on a boat, the cabin was not huge, but it was spotlessly clean, airy, pleasant, with a porthole and air conditioning.
United KingdomDordrecht is a (hidden) treasure. We enjoyed our stay there and on boatd very mich. Msny thanks to the hosts. Tot ziens.
GermanyWe really liked our stay at Boat Hotel Merlijn. The owners are really friendly, willing to help and flexible. It's really nice to sleep on a boat, it's something special. The location is nice, it's very close to the city center and a parking house is very close by. The place to have a good breakfast is very beautiful, the room is quite simple, however the bed is really comfortabel. Due to the bad weather we did not use the bikes, however it is easy to rent them on the boat. Dordrecht is a very beautiful city and is worth visiting:).
GermanyVriendelijkheid en behulpzaam eigenaar was buitengewoon.
NetherlandsHet was een fijne plek in het centrum van Dordrecht, alles goed bereikbaar. Het team van Merlijn was onwijs behulpzaam, gastvrij en vriendelijk. De kamer was prima voor mij. Alles netjes en fijne douche. Goeie ventilatie en toffe ervaring als je s’ochtends je gordijn opendoet je dat je op het water kijkt. Ontbijt was heerlijk en netjes verzorgd.
NetherlandsOntbijt was uitgebreid en ruim voldoende. Locatie was top. Parkeergarage op de hoek.
NetherlandsSehr freundliche Mitarbeiter, süße Kabine, alles super sauber! Sehr süßer vierbeiniger Matrose der einen immer begrüßt hat. Wir haben uns einfach rundum total wohlgefühlt. Für 15€ pro Person pro Tag ein Rad gemietet und dann direkt in den De Biesbosch Nationalpark gefahren. Es war alles rundum tip-top und wunderschön!!
GermanyBuitengewoon vriendelijke staf. De hotelkamer was brandschoon. Erg gastvrij hotel, goed te merken dat de staf gewend is om te cruisen met groepen gasten. Gastvrijheid werkelijk top.

Hotelboat Merlijn is een erg uitnodigend schip, dit authentieke schip straalt een al al luxe uit. Waant u zich op een luxe jacht op dit fraai met hout afgewerkte schip. Binnen geen 'kombuis' of 'kajuiten' maar een moderne entree, bar, lounge en dining room! Ook in de Deluxe 2 persoonskamers met eigen badkamer, vind u een heerlijk groot 2 persoonsbed met instelbare luchtmatrassen.
De eigenaren Coen & Cristina zullen u van harte welkom heten aan boord! Hij is verantwoordelijk voor het schip en zij voor het hotel maar op zo een gemoedelijk schip doet ieder natuurlijk wat er gedaan moet worden. We werken al ons hele leven op het water, we vinden het leuk om te reizen en met ons schip door verschillende landen te varen. Maar soms is het ook wel even lekker om 'thuis' te zijn in Dordrecht. Ook al wonen we op het schip, dit is onze thuisstad.
Boat hotel Merlijn bied accomodatie op een afgemeerd schip aan de Schuttevaerkade in Dordrecht. Een mooie wandeling langs historische havens van 700 meter brengt u naar het stadscentrum. We kunnen u helpen om een leuke rondvaart te plannen door het stadscentrum of natuurgebied 'de Biesbosch", Ook verhuren wij zeer goede fietsen waarmee u alle kanten op kunt, Kinderdijk, Rotterdam of de natuur in, het is allemaal mogelijk. Op 400 meter vanaf hotelboat Merlijn vind u een grote bioscoop, heerlijk voor een avondje uit!
