Fantastic location!

The houseboat was conveniently located with great access to all public transport. Han was helpful and very knowledgeable, and we had a great time on the houseboat! The stairs and ladder would be tough for very small children or anyone with mobility issues - my 4 and 6 year olds were delighted and had a wonderful time.

House boat

This house boat served us very well. We weren’t sure what to expect but Han was informative and helpful. The location was perfect, on the water, close to the train station and we walked all over Amsterdam. We would return if the occasion arose.

4 Tage Amsterdam

Das Hausboot von HAN liegt superzentral und zu Fuß ist man in 5 Minuten mitten im Leben von Amsterdam! Trotzdem hat mal absolute Ruhe auf dem Boot. Ob mit Zug oder PKW liegt das Boot super erreichbar. Seinen PKW kann man im Parkhaus Osterdock einmieten… meine Mädls und ich waren total begeistert und Amsterdam ist ne Reise wert.

We enjoyed our stay on the Bamboo Boat. Han was a gracious host and responded to our queries in a timely manner. The Boat was clean and in a great location for access to Central Station and all the districts. Great for exploring. The bonus for us were the bikes. The views from the sun deck and living space were fabulous. Wonderful for kicking back after busy days seeing the sights. The Boat was quiet and peaceful especially at night. The bed comfortable. We had no trouble sleeping! As for cooking on board, we had no plans but for those who do be aware there is no cook top or oven, only a microwave, toaster, kettle and single hot plate - (City ordinance prohibits flammable fuels on board.) All in all a great spot.

Had been to Amsterdam but not stayed on a boat. This was a wonderful option and it gave us the perspective of being on one of the many homes you could live in floating on a camel. Loved it. Location location location.

Bamboo boat stay in Amsterdam.

What a fun time, very unique stay in a boat. Lots of room for 3 of us and the deck was so awesome to sit and have a beverage after a day of sightseeing. Han was a great host and was very helpful with our stay and getting us around. Highly recommend.

Tranquil spot in the middle of Amsterdam

The location couldn't be better - right in the center of everything - but sitting on the deck looking out at the canal was incredibly peaceful. Hans was very welcoming and the boat had everything you needed. Wonderful stay.

Charming Stay on the Bamboo Houseboat

What a delightful little houseboat! Three friends and I stayed here for three nights during our trip to Amsterdam, and it was such a memorable experience. Han, our host, was incredibly kind—he greeted us upon arrival and even helped us carry our large suitcases onto the boat (which was no small feat given the precarious path!).He gave us a quick tour, explained how to use the four bikes available for our use, and had thoughtfully stocked the fridge with some drinks to welcome us. From that moment on, the Bamboo Houseboat was ours to enjoy.The location is fantastic—peaceful and quiet, yet within easy walking or biking distance to Central Dam. The view from the boat looks out over the newer part of Amsterdam, offering a lovely contrast to the city's historic charm.Inside, the houseboat was clean, spacious, and the beds were super comfortable. I’d absolutely stay here again if I return to Amsterdam!

Schöner Ort mitten im Zentrum

Perfekt für ein Kurzbesuch in Amsterdam. Alles zu Fuß zu erreichen. Ich hatte meine Tochter (5 Jahre) dabei und auch sie hatte einen tollen Urlaub auf dem wunderbaren Boot. Die Nespressomaschiene inkl Caps waren morgens sehr angenehm.
