Botel

Climb aboard the Botel, an utterly unique nautical hotel on Amsterdam’s River IJ. Moored at the NDSM Wharf, the hotel offers a complimentary ferry shuttle service to Amsterdam’s Central Station, so you can reach the city’s best attractions in a jiffy. The crossing only takes around 10 minutes, and usually runs twice hourly. From there, you've got the sights and sounds of Amsterdam at your feet.

When you’re not out enjoying the wharf’s myriad of markets, restaurants, bars and festivals, there’s really nowhere better to be on a sunny day than out on the hotel’s terrace. Evenings in can be spent at the bar or the games room.
