I surprised my fellow travellers with this hotel and it didn't disappoint, we all loved it - it felt very unique. The welcome we received from Rose was warm and friendly, our rooms were well appointed and really well done. Great breakfast followed our comfortable night and we would all thoroughly recommend this 'Boat Hotel'.

Abigail United Kingdom

The place is well maintained and unique that made it outstanding!! Plus friendly staff and class A service.

Chonnikarn Thailand

Great breakfast and very friendly personel. The boat is decorated really nicely too

Anonymous Netherlands

A truly unique place with an incredibly cozy atmosphere. Super comfortable and great facilities for a boat. Friendly and helpful staff. Nicely decorated rooms. Wouldn’t change a thing :)

Marek Czech Republic

Unique design and location. It's a sort of museum in a way, a lot of photos and items to see. Room was clean and cosy, as well as bathroom. They also have some books and games in a lobby.

Anna Russia

Literally everything! An absolute gem in a truly unique location in a fantastic city!

Simon United Kingdom

Everything about this project is lovely. From the people working on the boat year in and year out to the beautiful setting, breakfast, dinner and bar vibes. This was one night of 7 traveling around some great places and hotels and easily the best. Loved it and couldn't recommend it more.

Sasha United Kingdom

Nice place to stay in Nijmegen. Sleeping on a boat gives 'that little extra' to your stay. Bars, places to stay, shop and eat are all on walking distance. View towards the Waal-river completes the experience. Very friendly staff, location to Nijmegen City Centre is perfect.

Wouter Netherlands

Super cosy place to stay in! Wonderful staff. Excellent breakfast

Lotte Belgium

Nice position on the river near the town. Lively bars and food outlets on the bank next to the boat.
