The space
Romantic Houseboat is an antique boat of 100 years old.
Half of the boat has been converted into a small but very comfortable apartment. I live myself on the other side of the boat with my two Kats. The boat is located in the heart of the center next to the waterlooplein, a 10-minute walk from central station. It has a lovely warm stove for the winter and also a lovely hot shower.
Located only ten minutes walk from Dam square, the boat is surrounded by many restaurants, cafes, bars and markets. Rembrandt plein, Waterloo plein market and Amsterdam's Stopera (the principal opera house) are all in view from the apartment which means that even a spontaneous stroll through the nighbourhood could turn most exiting. As its a boat you get to see Amsterdam from a very unique prespective and truly enjoy the canals in a romantic way. Street musi
