Houseboat summary

My name is Eliane and I love to welcome you aboard our pride and joy: The The Jordaan Wheelhouse - 2 BR - Sleeps 4 Wheelhouse. This is a two bedroom apartment on the historic freight ship. From the wheelhouse you have a panoramic view over the wonderful canals of Amsterdam. 

Houseboat description

The bnb is normally located in the heart of the Jordaan. From 2022 to a great part of 2024, the houseboat will be located just behind Rembrandtplein. There is no better place in the canals of Amsterdam! In the wheelhouse you have a living space with a panoramic view over the Amstel, Breathtaking. Downstairs there are two bedrooms with queen size beds, a separate shower and toilet. On the terrace behind the wheelhouse you have a nice lounge terrace and table to sit outside while enjoying the city life!

The ship is docked in the Jordaan, next to the corner of the famous Prinsengracht. This is right in the centre with countless charming bars, restaurants and boutique shops within a stone's throw distance. 

But first let's take a look at the houseboat apartment that you may call your floating home in Amsterdam for a while. The big wheelhouse - with the original wheel still there - is without a doubt a unique and super cozy place to sit back and relax, while the buzzing city life passes by. Have a first cup of coffee and watch the swans, ducks and geese pass by. There are two tables, two chairs and a lounge sofa for ultimate relaxation. In the wheelhouse you have access to a small fridge, coffee maker, cooker and a micro-wave oven. Note that we don't have a kitchen, but who would seriously consider cooking when you have such an abundance of restaurants around?

In the hull of the ship we offer two charming bedrooms, each with a high-quality double bed. This makes the boat perfect for small families and couples traveling together. Each bedroom has a personal character and is shaped in a unique and charming way, with several nautical elements such as the traditional portholes. 

The tastefully decorated bathroom, with shower, sink and toilet, is conveniently situated between the two bedrooms.

Last but not least: know that the whole boat is well insulated (recently renovated) and has comfortable central heating. This way you are ensured to be nice and warm, even on the coldest winter nights. 

I hope to have given you the best possible impression of our houseboat apartment in the city centre of Amsterdam, but don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions - always glad to help!

Eliane

My name is Eliane . I am an enthusiastic and social woman who is eager to learn and always looking for a new challenge. When I was 18 years old, I went to live on this beautiful houseboat. And I started this bed and breakfast where you are now.
I have studied ‘Hotel and event management' at the TIO University in Amsterdam. The study fits exactly with the running of this bed and breakfast. And I do the study with a lot of fun. I do this bed and breakfast next to my study and I do it with pleasure. I hope that I can show you the way in Amsterdam.

    Simple but good!

    Simple, nice and clean! The shower was a bit exposed - so not much privacy there. There is no oven but a microwave and a kettle. Overall the stay was worth the price and we had a wonderful time.

    Winter in Amsterdam

    A very nice houseboat. We felt very comfortable. Even overrunning another boat went well. It's in a different spot in Amsterdam, but that wasn't a bad thing. It was cold outside and the central heating was on inside. We still had 2 radiant heaters available, but we didn't need them at all. It's an older ship and there are stairs and small rooms, but that's exactly what made it so charming.

    Weekend on the houseboat. Good location Show original

    We spent a weekend on the houseboat. What you need to know, the stairs to the sleeping cabins are very steep and narrow. At the latest after the third person takes a shower, the tiny anteroom is also under water. A sleeping cabin is under a seat that needs to be folded up. However, there is no bracket for the flap. Wasn't repaired during I seres stay either. The houseboat could use some tidying up. Pigeon droppings on the seat. One towel per person. If you stay longer, this would be a bit little. Eliane is very friendly

    Very adventurous Show original

    The boat is not suitable for people with disabilities. The stairs on the boat are too steep for that. Otherwise we had a good time... only we could have been told from the start that the WiFi and TV was broken... and on the boat next door we had to look at the garbage every day in front of our noses.😟

    Fantastic Experience

    We had an amazing stay on this fantastic houseboat in an ideal location. Its proximity to both the Metro and Trams made our exploration of Amsterdam incredibly convenient. The second bedroom hidden under the sofa was a delightful surprise for my kids, who considered it their own secret hideaway. The host provided us with invaluable information and clear instructions, enhancing our overall experience. Without a doubt, I wholeheartedly recommend both the houseboat and the host!
