Attractive modern accommodation in Rotterdam city center with 6 bedrooms, each with a private bathroom.

Rooms on Water is a 40-meter long ship, whose hold was converted in 2017 into a beautiful group accommodation for standard 12 people.

All 6 bedrooms have a private bathroom with shower and underfloor heating. In these cozy bedrooms there is air conditioning (hot/cold), and opening porthole (round window), underfloor heating and a wardrobe. There are 2 single beds, which we can convert into double beds on request.

The living room is very attractive and cozy. With a large glass wall along the indoor entrance, two large koekoeken (wooden skylights with glass), several robust oak tables and an old wooden carpenter's workbench, the atmosphere is warm industrial. You can make yourself comfortable here. Hang out on the lounge sofa, play games at a table, or cook as a group, slide the tables together and have a wonderful dinner.

Above the living room on deck is the roof terrace. Here you can enjoy the evening and the city dynamics.

Rotterdam: everything close by
A stay in Rotterdam means shopping, architecture, a ride in the water cab, enjoying the lively Market Hall or the real market (Tuesday or Saturday), strolling along the Old Harbour with its historic ships, shopping in the Hoogstraat, Koopgoot or Meent, or a museum visit. All of these hotspots are within a 5 - 10 minute walk from Rooms on Water.

Of course, you can rent bikes and discover the city that way, or take a great walk along the river Maas or through the lesser-known parts of the city.

But from Rotterdam you can also get to the beach in three quarters of an hour. There is even a metro going to the beach at Hoek van Holland. By metro or train you can go to the beautiful historic cities of The Hague (40 min.), Delft (less than 30 min.), Leiden (around 40 min.), Haarlem (over 1 hour), Amsterdam (over 50 min.) or Utrecht (50 min.), by water bus to Kinderdijk or Dordrecht....

In short, during a stay on board Rooms on Water you can enjoy a very nice varied vacation. Discover Rotterdam and see a part of the Netherlands.

I, Moniek the owner, live on board in the former skipper's house, the guests live in the former ship's hold. Normally we do not or hardly meet outside.
