“Anna and Marek are a wonderful couple, and they run a beautiful boat hotel just next to the Nautilus science museum. They are generous, fun, and seem to attract a really pleasant crowd. Lucky for me they were anchoring during my visit! I'm sure I...” - Sarah“How unique to be on a houseboat in Amsterdam! Located close enough to the center, but far enough to be quiet and peaceful . They keep the boat spotless. Fabulous breakfast. Owners and chef so friendly, they make you feel like family.”

“It was very well located (15 min away from the center) and the sunset and sunrise are beautiful. Breakfast is also really nice ! Special thanks to the staff !” - Carla“Loved everything about this boat. However it’s a boat so remember that the rooms are small. I was traveling with my teenage daughter and two giant suitcases so it was cramped but still well worth it. Super comfy bed and a fantastic shower”
- Charles“The staff was very friendly and accommodating! They are full of information and recommendations also. I wish we spent a could more days. It was close enough for us to drag luggage from train station and right across from the science museum.”
