Dokstroom - our hidden gem

Our guests particularly appreciate the location. There are many great things to - no tourist traps, but genuine interesting highlights - within walking distance. Right across the water you see the amazingly designed science museum Nemo with free roof-panorama, the National Maritime Museum, the Amsterdam Climbing Hall, the Music Hall and within 1 km distance you find Central Station, the free Ferry to Amsterdam North. 

Not to mention the wonderful places to eat and drink! The famous and laid back bar-restaurant Hannekes Book (with awesome terrace) is literally one minute walking away, and around the corner there is a great cafe 'Delerium' with over 750(!) beers, also with a water front terrace. When you cross the bridge you can enjoy one of the best Chinese restaurants in town - actually also located on a houseboat! And this is just to give you an impression - there is so much to see, drink, eat and to do!

Outside you can enjoy the sun all day long. Since we are located along a dead-end street, there is not much traffic and you can sit outside comfortably. This is actually quiet unique for Amsterdam. Even just walking along our canal is a lovely experience in itself: here you will see a great variety of traditional ships that are well preserved, often over a hundred years.

And now about the studio. You have a private entrance, so privacy is guaranteed. When you enter the boat, you will experience the unique and warm atmosphere that we have created to give you a real home-away-from-home' feeling. The places has a comfortable double bed, a ( sleeping) couch, a flatscreen tv, free wifi, a dining table, water cooker, micro wave and a small fridge, hairföhn. Be assured that the houseboat studio is comfortably warm all year round thanks to central heating and since we have solar panels on the roof we also have airco for the warm days.

Linen and towels are provided, as well as a hair dryer. Don't like to go out and fancy an afternoon cocooning? We have a nice selection of books, board games and puzzels too. 

We speak English, German, French, Spanish and Dutch, so feel free to let us know if you have any questions and we will get back to you right away. We look forward to welcome you aboard on our charming houseboat!
