Real guests • Real stays • Real opinions
The 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 KingdomWe 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:).
GermanySehr freundliche und aufmerksame Gastgeber. Sie unterstützen auch bei der Suche und Organisation von Ausflügen. Sehr bequeme Betten, man wird in den Schlaf gewogen 😊. Auf jeden Fall ein Besuch wert!
GermanySuper schoon en fantastisch ontbijt. Hele vriendelijke rustige gastheer
NetherlandsSuoer tolles, frisches Frühstück. MEGA TOLLE Gastgeber, sehr zuvorkommend und aufmerksam.
GermanyDe matrassen die je hard of zacht kan zetten, naar eigen wens. Heerlijk geslapen. Het was heel netjes en schoon.
NetherlandsSehr gute Betten. Sehr freundliche Gastgeber. Ausgezeichnetes Frühstück.
GermanyDas Frühstück war außergewöhnlich, es war sehr gut!, Es gab zum normalen Frühstück noch zusätzlich kleine Pfannkuchen mit Beeren. Die Sicherheit in Coronazeit wurde sehr gut umgesetzt, man fühlte sich sehr sicher und trotzdem konnte man das Schiff sehr gut genießen. Der Service war sehr persönlich und aufmerksam, man merkt, dass die Besatzung eine Rundumverwöhnung für ihre Gäste bei ihren Kreuzfahrten gewöhnt ist und lässt das auch den Gästen zukommen, die das Schiff nun vor Anker in Dordrecht buchen. Eine Flusskreuzfahrt mit der Merlijn könnte ich mir auch gut vorstellen.
GermanyDe locatie was super! Aan het water, midden in het historisch centrum/binnenstad. Het ontbijt was echt super, heel uitgebreid. De eigenaar was ontzettend aardig; vroeg voortdurend of alles naar wens was.
NetherlandsDe gastvrijheid van de gastheer was voortreffelijk, het ontbijt was prima voor elkaar en ze kwamen nog met leuke suggesties

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!
