About this property

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.

Rotterdam: everything nearby
A stay in Rotterdam means shopping, architecture, a ride in the water taxi, enjoying in the lively Market Hall or on the real market (Tuesday or Saturday), strolling along the Oude Haven with its historic ships, shopping in Hoogstraat and Meent, or a museum visit. All these hotspots are a 5 - 10 minute walk from Rooms on Water.
Of course you can rent bicycles and discover the city in this way, or take a long walk along the Maas or through the lesser known parts of the city.
But from Rotterdam you can also reach the beach in 45 minutes. There is a metro to Hoek van Holland Beach. and you can take the metro or train to the beautiful historic cities of The Hague (40 minutes), Delft (less than 30 minutes), Leiden (around 40 minutes), Haarlem (more than 1 hour), Amsterdam (more than 50 minutes) or Utrecht (50 minutes), by water bus to Kinderdijk or Dordrecht.

In short, while staying aboard Rooms on Water you can enjoy a very varied holiday. Discover Rotterdam and see part of the Netherlands.

I, Moniek the owner, live on board in the former skipper's house, the guests live in the former ship's hold. Normally, we never meet (maybe just outside).

Note: If you are organizing a bachelor party, then Rooms on Water is generally not suitable. Reservations can only be made under strict conditions. Before the booking you must provide information about the group and the details of the bachelor weekend.

Note: Rooms on Water is not suitable for children under 9 years of age

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.
