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
i
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

Condé Nast Traveler ""It’s a breeze to explore the city" from this "wonderful hotel" with a brown-brick facade near the central station and on the UNESCO-listed Singel Canal." Full review
Fodor's "This centrally located hotel has big, bare public areas and bustling lounges and restaurants." Full review
Frommer's "Built around an open central courtyard in an area of old warehouses, the six-story Renaissance blends with the gabled facades nearby." Full review
