Be sure to ask for a room with a view on the water, to avoid the uninspiring quay.
Lonely Planet "Five minutes’ walk from Centraal Station, this floating hotel is usually populated by dazed, Europe-in-four-days bus groups and packs of Brit boys/girls celebrating bucks’/hens’ nights." Full review
Time Out "Convenient for Centraal Station, the docklands and hops across to Noord, this a good bet if you're looking for good, clean accommodation with the odd frill, like free in-house movies." Full review

Management can be hard to reach for special requests, but the enthusiastic staff contributes to the youthful, vibrant atmosphere.
Time Out "A dazzling art nouveau monument that's looking extra spruce now that a fountain has been added to its terrace, the public areas here... are all eye-pleasers." Full review
