Fun, interesting, unique location. Outdoor deck was nice. This is one of those reviews might be higher than the sum of the parts. We like the place for 1-3 days max.

Ken, United States of America

It was a very easy commute to the city as you could just hop on the ferry that went back and forth every 15-30 minutes, the breakfast included was a huge plus too

Andrew, United States of America

Only short ride on free boat at central station stop #4

Elizabeth, United States of America

Bed was comfortable and the room was very clean everywhere and I’m picky! Loved the whole place!

Janice, Canada

Unique and perfect spot to stay! Right on the washer. Staff was cute OSU. Bartender was awesome! Had a fantastic time!

Scott, United States of America

The staff was friendly and the breakfast was wonderful. The croissants were perfect. The place was clean and very secure.

Jeanie, United States of America

I loved the location... just 10 min ferry ride from central station. Not very touristic aria with cool domestic people around... Really nice relaxed caffe and restaurant nearby.

Branislav, Serbia

Location and price was good, although it involved a free ferry ride from the main rail station. Room was clean. Restaurants, bike rental and Marriot close by but other services took a little more effort

Gary, Netherlands

It was a nice place compared to the price I've paid.

Denis, Israel

Beautiful place, tasty breakfasts, comfortable bed, no bedbugs in the room that is so important in Amsterdam! I’ll sure be back!

This unique 3-star hotel offers rooms aboard a boat located on the River IJ at the NDSM Wharf in Amsterdam. The property includes a bar. It has a free 10-minute ferry service to Amsterdam Central Station twice every hour.

The rooms have either land or views over the River IJ. Each room has a private bathroom and private restroom. A continental breakfast buffet is served each morning.

Guests can relax in the bar area and play pool or video games. During nice weather guests can enjoy the terrace.

The property is located at the NDSM-wharf. This former shipyard is now a place where modern life unfolds: festivals, events, art, flea markets, restaurants, bars and new architecture.

Amsterdam Central Railway Station offers direct connections to Schiphol Airport in 15 minutes. From the station there are tram services to Dam Square and Museum Square which includes the Van Gogh Museum.

Amsterdam Noord is a great choice for travelers interested in nightlife, old-town exploration and city walks.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 8.2 for a two-person trip.

The bathroom is a bit small, not too bad, because is part of the concept of sleeping in a ship, but instead of plastic curtains in the shower, they could be glass.
The concept, the location is good, because you can take a free ferry from the Central station to get there, a few Spanish speakers in the staff making it easier to communicate. The bedroom smelled really good when we arrived.

Dated older place. Had a bit of a musty smell that went away after windows were opened. Walls as others have stated are a bit thin, but use the TV as background noise and you'll be ok.

Great it's like been on a cruise but you arrive in Amsterdam each day. Excellent value, great breakfast, very clean and comfortable. Free ferry to Central station makes it very accessable to the city center and any planed trips. Highly recommend. The loft pods on the top deck are very unique.

The bath is small. There is not fresh fruit in the breakfast.
The location is perfect since you are in the Central Train Station in 15min by ferry, which is for free. The bed was very comfortable and we had a crib for our baby who slept very well too.

Little details. Botel advertised cable TV, but the channel selection was minimal. The shower spray and temperature were inconsistent. The bathroom was a bit cramped. Again, these are details.
The novelty of sleeping on a boat. The service at the bar/restaurant was excellent. The free breakfast was delicious and plentiful. The bed was nicely firm. Proximity to the free ferry, and by extension, Amsterdam Centraal made this a nice location, despite being in Amsterdam-Noord.

I didn't like the staff at reception, they wasn't friendly and helpful. I had special diet plan and i had with me on travelling and i asked them to warm-up the food in their microwave but they straight away refused and didn't allow me to eat my cold food in the dinning area when it was not busy at all. It was 4pm when i checked in. The guy at bar told meto go to your room and eat there. It was a enough space to sit but they were not helpful at all.
I liked the location of the property its quite close to the central via free ferry.
