"Where better to experience a city on the water than on a boat-hotel moored permanently to a dock on the IJ waterway northwest of Centraal Station?" Full review

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

DK Eyewitness
"A cosy little place ideal for exploring the Jordaan, Wiechmann combines its old-fashioned charm with modern touches like (free) Wi-Fi Internet."
Rough Guide
"Family-run for over fifty years, this hotel occupies an attractively restored canal house close to the Anne Frank Huis, with dark wooden beams and restrained style throughout."
Time Out
"Retro touches from every era, from a suit of armour in the reception to 1950s teapots and toasters in the breakfast room, adorn this rather eccentric, long-established hotel." Full review
