"The houseboat was amazing! It was incredibly serene and quiet, making it a wonderful place to relax. We were not far from Aalsmeer, which is a lovely town to explore. We took taxis to Hoofddorp, where we could easily hop on the train to travel around the area.The houseboat itself was spacious and comfortable to move around in, and both the beds and couches were very comfortable. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend the houseboat to others.There were two concerns worth...

"We certainly enjoyed our stay at the houseboat. Monnickendam is a cute little town with a nice market, shops and restaurants. Just a 10 minutes walk to the bus stop into Amsterdam - very convenient. On the houseboat you find everything you need. Perfect spot in the evening is on the rooftop. Our host provided us with a very warm welcome. Communication was easy and very pleasant. Getting used to the dry toilet is a little challenge - there are „normal“ toilets in the main building."

19. Sleep Under the Stars on a Sailing Catamaran near Amsterdam

Monnickendam

"We had a wonderful stay with Deep and Julie on their Catermeran. We enjoyed some wonderful sailing and anchored near an Island for the night. We had a lovely evening sharing stories over dinner and watching the sun go down! I was impressed how warm and cosy the boat was and how well we all slept! Waking up surrounded by nature and beautiful scenery in the morning was very special and we enjoyed basking up the sunshine before setting sail. It was a great adventure for both children and adults...

"Ein traumhafter Ort zum Entschleunigen!Unser Aufenthalt auf diesem Hausboot war einfach traumhaft. Wer die Ruhe, Gelassenheit und sehr viel Natur sucht, ist hier genau richtig. Für uns war es wahnsinnig entspannend und entschleunigend. Allein durch die wunderschöne Umgebung und das tolle Hausboot hatten wir einen fantastischen Urlaub – ganz neben all den Unternehmungen, die wir sonst noch gemacht haben.Man muss dazu sagen: Wer absoluten Luxus sucht, für den ist es vielleicht nicht das Richtige....

Top Amsterdam Hotel Reviews

Leonardo Hotel Amsterdam Rembrandtpark

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room great restaurant and bar!"

Leonardo Royal Hotel Amsterdam

8/10 Good

"The location of the hotel is great, with the metro train close by, allowing for easy access to the city centre and less noise. The hotel reception staff were all great during our stay, especially- Tina, Victor and Mo. Also, the breakfast team and bar crew were excellent. For breakfast lovers there is something for everyone no matter your preference, Shout out to Prince the chef at the omelette station, remembers a repeat customer’s order and very patient."

ibis Amsterdam Centre

10/10 Excellent

"We loved staying at the ibis in Amsterdam! It is super close to both the main sight seeing spots and the big main train station which makes it super easy to get around. There is also lots of tram lines close by if you don't want to walk to get further into the city. The staff was super friendly and welcoming and even gave us some small freebies on arrival. The room and bathroom are a bit small but it didn't bother us personally as we only really used to room to sleep in as we were out exploring the city for most of our time there. Even though the area around is quite busy we didn't rally have any trouble with the noise level even though we were facing in the direction of the city. Because we were facing the city we had a stunning view onto a canal and the city as well."
