DK Eyewitness "An elegant, family-run hotel that has been in the same careful hands for more than 60 years."

Note: Be sure to request one of the hotel's iPads at check-in, as these are a wellspring of information, and not just about the hotel's facilities, but also about the city and some fun off-the-beaten-path sights.
Time Out "Spread over several charming canal houses at the epicentre of the elegant canal district, this private hotel has been run by the same family for decades." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "Hotel Estheréa takes its beauty seriously – its prettiness gets plenty of attention from guests, with florals – live and textile – dominating, but not overwhelming, the decor." Full review

Frommer's "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

"Kids may enjoy the experience of staying on a boat, but the property is more popular with value-minded couples and groups." Full review
Not For Tourists "No worries about sea sickness, it's a very big boat."
