2 Houseboat Suites Amsterdam Prinsengracht

Beautiful houseboat in a fantastic location with a wonderful host

Pros: Amazing little property in a fantastic location — the perfect way to immerse yourself in Amsterdam’s canal culture. The host was incredibly helpful, warm and responsive, providing everything we could possibly need. The room was beautiful, spotless and fresh, with every amenity thoughtfully included. We loved that there was no TV; it meant we spent hours simply relaxing in bed watching canal life drift by. Absolutely loved this place and would definitely return.

Lovely experience on the house boat - price point a bit high

Pros: Great location and to be on the water on the canal was great. So enjoyed the view. The bed and bedding were both very comfortable, informative host made everything very easy, well planned accommodation and access to the house boat and room.

Cons: No servicing of the room during the 3 days and we had damp towels as no electric rail to dry them on. We think it’s a bit pricy as a result. If no service then a tea towel and washing up liquid to clean the bowls, mugs etc. necessary. Venetian blinds or day to night blinds at the windows would give privacy when needed - we wanted to have tea in bed with the blinds up to enjoy the beautiful view but then we had people gawping and waving at us from the tour boats so we had to choose between that or closing the blinds - no view and a dark room!

Great location and very cozy and comfortable on water apartment.

Pros: Amazing location, very comfortable and stylish. Very nice coffee supplied. Good supermarket across the road, lots of cafes and restaurants. Feeding the bird life was lovely. Great seeing the boats float past.

Cons: It’s very compact and limited space for storing property. Minimal plates and cutlery. No servicing of room, was hard to get towels dry in small space v

An amazing alternative stay - not many hotels that I know of where you can feed the ducks outside your window!!

Pros: What an absolute gem of a place to stay in the centre of Amsterdam. The fact that you’re on a houseboat, on a canal in the middle of Amsterdam gives it a special touch to your stay. Susan took care of all our needs prior to arriving and Bryan took care of us and was always available if we needed him whilst we there. Thanks to you both.

Cons: Nothing - there’s is nothing you can’t like about this property

Perfect host, perfect accommodation, perfect situation... PERFECT

Pros: The location of the houseboat was perfect, the modern bathroom with heated floor and shower was fantastic. Susan let us be on our own, but explained she lived on the houseboat and anything we wanted she could immediately help with. Beautiful flowers and complimentary drinks and chocolates made us feel extremely welcome. Susan's video for entry into the boathouse was really simple and easy to understand. We had such a relaxing time on the houseboat, watching the lights flickering on the water is something we will never forget and also the ducks quacking to be fed seeds (we bought in the supermarket) 3mins from boat. Lastly the local pub on the corner, full of Amsterdamers, superb atmosphere and great beer!

Cons: Nothing could have been any better, it is perfect.

Incredible, one of a kind stay in Amsterdam

Pros: The houseboat is so beautiful, it has amazing views and the comfiest bed we have had in any of our accomodation in Europe. Bryan, our host was so lovely and caring, and the welcome gifts and extra chocolate he gave us to bring in the new year was so incredibly generous and thoughtful. We had the best time in Amsterdam and it was made even better with this accomodation which was also so conveniently central. We will 110% be back in the summer time!

Cons: No complaints, everything was perfect :)

Extraordinary Experience with a lovely view.

Pros: It is an experience that everyone should have at least once in their life. Susan is also an accommodating host. If you haven't considered full-service hotel comfort, let's have a try.

Cons: The Van Gogh Suit is a little bit small, I think the Rembrandt suit might be a better option if you can rent it.

Wonderful experience on the canal.

Pros: Ideal central location. Lovely hostess, very attentive to our needs. Clean modern unit, small but well appointed. We were quite comfortable and enjoyed the passing boat traffic immensely. Thanks, Susan!

Cons: N/A

Beautiful & unique experience; Centrally located

Pros: The houseboat is easy to find and very centrally located. There are no loud noises, so we had a restful sleep every night. The view from the window is unique. Besides from the boats there were also friendly ducks and seagulls passing, yet you can enjoy enough privacy at all times by adjusting the shades. Right across the street you can find a big supermarket as well as restaurants and bars by feet. Susan is a very kind and helpful host with precious recommendations to explore the city. Thanks a lot for the hospitality and friendly welcoming! :)

Lovely.

Pros: Coffee is great, room is well thought out and designed. Neighborhood has grocery store, bakery, cheese and wine vendors. The “museum “ bar will give you ice. Feels like a community not just tourist attraction. A range of restaurants and canals to explore.
