Cool space, great host, not for light sleepers

This is a great location near the Nemo science museum and easy access to downtown. The host was great with communication, reaching out to figure out when we might arrive. The breakfast was also fantastic. The boat is exactly as described and other guests were respectful and quiet; however, if you are a light sleeper, footsteps and people coming in at a variety of times were notable. Two in our family slept fine, 1 ok, and 1 not much.

We absolutely loved this property! It’s a unique stay and so close to central Amsterdam. What stood out to us was the amazing staff who worked there. The boat is a family business and they were so helpful, knowledgable and generous. The drinks and snacks were on an honesty basis and very reasonably priced and you pay at the end when you check out. The showers and toilets were clean and surprisingly good. We travelled for three weeks and this was one of our favourite places to stay for the whole trip; we can’t recommend highly enough!

Das Deck des Hausbootes ist wunderschön und man konnte dort sehr gut den Tag beginnen bzw. ausklingen lassen. Auch wenn es (leider) viele Stolperfallen gab, empfanden wir das Hausboot als super Alternative zu Hostels, da es nicht nur die perfekte Lage, sondern auch super nettes Personal hatte. Wir würden jeder Zeit wieder dort übernachten.

Central und romantisch

Tommy ist ein toller Gastgeber. Die Betten sind klein, aber was erwartet man auch von Kojen!Die Stimmung an Bord und die Umgebung und die zentrale Lage, die ein Verkehrsticket Erst überflüssig machen, sind ausschlaggebend. Das Frühstück ist phänomenal!!!!

Great staff and a fun place to stay in a fun city. On a boat so of course the quarters are quite small but in amsterdam you shouldn’t be in your room too much anyway. Great morning spread and the lofi jazz playing is always a plus for me.

È stata una bellissima esperienza grazie all’ottima posizione dell’hotel, che personalmente ho trovato arredato molto bene, con uno staff molto accogliente e simpatico. Le camere un po’ piccole ma perfetto per chi vuole viversi la città avendo un posto vicino al centro dove potersi rilassare al caldo con una buona compagnia

Experiência inusitada (mas para poucos dias)

O barco não dá enjoo e não é frio (fomos no outono). O café da manhã é excelente! A única coisa ruim é que como é um barco você não tem isolamento acústico como de um hotel, então você escuta o barulhos dos quartos ao lado e do corredor. Mas de uma maneira geral as pessoas colaboram com o silêncio.

Amazing Boat Hostel

The Guy that ran the hostel was brilliant. Made you feel at home and was very easy going. The location was perfect. Definately value for money. My friend who is 6ft 1 inch managed to fit into the bottom bunk so don't be put of by the pictures.

Perfectly situated.

A 10 minute walk from centraal Station and the city centre. Located on the piers outside the Science Museum (NEMO) Christian was the perfect host, friendly and helpful. Although the rooms are VERY small the boat boasts plenty of character that makes up for this. Showers and toilets (shared) are clean and well kept and breakfast (continental style) certainly sets you up for the day.

Recomendo

A localização é excelente. O quarto para quatro pessoas é realmente pequeno, mas já esperávamos isso. As malas grandes não cabiam junto conosco no quarto, mas tudo pôde ter sido organizado tranquilamente com o host. O host é muito simpático e solícito, o local era sempre limpo, as áreas comuns eram confortáveis, café da manhã muito bem servido. A wi-fi não funcionava bem as vezes, mas a experiência da hospedagem em geral foi muito boa.
