"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

"These two 18th-century buildings on leafy Jan Luykenstraat may look traditional, but in the lounges and guest rooms everything is stylishly contemporary." Full review
Rough Guide
"Just five minutes’ around the corner from its sister hotel the Vondel, this is the latest in a chic mini-chain, with the same contemporary vibe and high standards."
Michelin Guide
"Two 18C townhouses have been converted into one at Jan Luijkenstraat 76, hence the name. Comfortable accommodation, which might not be the ultimate in luxury but is definitely stylish and elegant."
