Be sure to ask for a room with a view on the water, to avoid the uninspiring quay.
"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
"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

"Our favourite hotel in this price range, it has just eight rooms in a house dating back to 1652. Its rooms, named for Dutch painters, are furnished with simplicity, but all have canal views." Full review
"All rooms are en suite and no-smoking, and there is even a lift, making the Brouwer all-round great value."
"The eight neat, en-suite rooms here are named after Dutch painters and all of them look onto the Singel canal." Full review
