Rooms on Water, a beautiful holidayhouse on the water in the center of Rotterdam

This attractive group accommodation in Rotterdam center with 6 bedrooms, each with a private bathroom is a 40 meter long ship.
The hold has been converted in 2017 into a beautiful group accommodation for standard 12 people.
Each bedroom has a fold-out bed for an additional fee. The rooms are small with 3 people, but you can stay with a maximum of 14 guests.
All 6 bedrooms have a private bathroom with shower and underfloor heating. In these attractive, cozy bedrooms there is air conditioning (hot / cold), and opening porthole (round window), underfloor heating and a wardrobe and cupboard. There are 2 single beds that we can possibly push together.

The living room is very atmospheric and cozy. With a large glass wall along the indoor entrance, two large cuckoos (wooden skylights with glass), several robust oak tables and an old wooden carpentry bench, the atmosphere can be described as warm industrial. You can completely enjoy yourself here. Hang out on the lounge sofa, play games at a table, or cook together, push the tables together and have a delicious dinner.

Above the living room on deck is the roof terrace. Here you can enjoy the evening and the urban dynamics.

Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt an Bord. Die Einrichtung ist liebevoll eingerichtet und gibt eine sofortige Wohlfühlatmosphär. Die Lage ist zentral und man kann von dort viele unterschiedliche Freizeitaktivitäten erleben. Perfekt für grössere Gruppen. Wir waren mit 11 Personen da. Gerne wieder :-)

Unique place in the Heart of Rotterdam
This place is a lovely and unique Place in the Heart of Rotterdam. Sights, shopping, food - all in walking-distance. The boat lies still on the water, very clean and fully equipped with everything you may need. Absolutely recommended!

Großartiges Wochenende in Rotterdam
Wir waren mit acht Freunden in Rotterdam, für unser jährliches Treffen. Eine so einzigartige Location hatten wir bis zu diesem Zeitpunkt noch nie. Die Lage des Schiffs ist absolut perfekt. Die Markthalle von Rotterdam, die Witte de Wittestraat (Partymeile), sowie alle Sehenswürdigkeiten liegen innerhalb von 5 Gehminuten vom Schiff entfernt. Der Aufenthaltsraum und die angeschlossene Küche lassen keine Wünsche offen. Auch die Betten und Badezimmer sind auf hohem Niveau und lassen sich mit einem 4-Sterne Hotel vergleichen. Moniek unsere Gastgeberin hatte uns bereits im Vorfeld einige Tipps zu Ausflugsmöglichkeiten sowie Restaurants gegeben, die unsere Erwartungen mehr als erfüllt haben. Im Großen und Ganzen war es wirklich ein perfektes Wochenende, das wir in naher Zukunft wiederholen werden.

In een woord: aanrader!!
Wat een fantastische accomodatie op een schitterende plek. De boot is schoon en van alle gemakken voorzien. Hutten hebben een afmeting waar een gemiddelde hotelkamer in Parijs jaloers op zou zijn + fijne badkamer en lekkere bedden. De boot is -dankzij vloerverwarming- in de winter lekker warm en in de zomer is het genieten op een prachtig terras bovendeks. Tot slot is de eigenaresse vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Kortom: echt een aanrader voor een verblijf met vrienden en/of familie.
