the nice welcome, good hints on side, very nice breakfast, sun deck in the city center

An unusual place to stay, perfectly located and with a great host

Property was easy to find, great location & lovely vibe. Host was super friendly & informative. Great breakfast xx

The owner was really helpful and friendly, and made great eggs in the morning!

The hospitality, the breakfast, the calmness despite being close to the center, the design... everything extremely recommendable.

Everything was good, the owner of the boat was kind and friendly, quick in answering to my questions and my needs. It's a fresh idea to live on a board: relaxing and comfortable. A lot of choice for the breakfast. I recommend Rooms on Water (RoW).

Very friendly and hospitable mistress of the boat. Moniek, thank you so much!

Great location, owner very welcoming and friendly. Fabulous location, central accessible to shops and restaurants.

Il posto è a 2 passi da tutto ciò che si vuole , la struttura è molto bella e accogliente, ad accoglierci c'era la Signora Monik disponibile e gentile. 10 per arredamento e pulizia delle camere e spazi comuni.

Het ontbijt, de gastvrouw en de locatie. Prima verblijf, er ontbrak werkelijk niets. Gastvrouw vriendelijk en geeft de nodige tips v.w.b. bezienswaardigheden etc. Veelal op loopafstand.

Welcome aboard at Rooms on Water. Rooms on Water is the new b & b on board of my recently renovated ship in Rotterdam center. In the 40-meter-long former cargo ship, the former ship's hold was converted into luxury b & b and group accommodation in 2017. There are 6 bedrooms for 2 persons with an extra fold-out bed for a third person (child). The rooms have air conditioning, underfloor heating and an open window (porthole). There is a cozy living room with coffee / tea facilities, board and card games, tourist information and some books about the area and traditional ships. Here too there is underfloor heating, but also a pellet stove for extra warmth and atmosphere. The atmosphere on board is informal and relaxed anyway. On deck is a roof terrace with a view over the Leuvehaven. The ship is located next to the Maritime Museum and in the museum harbor. I live in the former skipper's house at the aft deck and can tell a lot about Rotterdam. Actually superfluous, but of course this is a gayfriendly accommodation.
I have been living on board this ship since 2008, which has been a shop / workshop for traditional ships in recent years. In 2017 I converted it into luxury group accommodation and b & b. For years we had a traditional sailing ship, with which we sailed with groups on the IJsselmeer and the Wadden Sea. In the winter we rented the space as a b & b in Rotterdam. I sold that ship, but the blood creeps where it can not go, so I have now rebuilt this ship. I also sailed as a skipper on the water taxi here in Rotterdam, but unfortunately I can not combine that activity with the running of the b & b and group accommodation. I would like to welcome you on board my ship and in Rotterdam!
Rooms on Water is situated in a unique location next to the sculpture of Zadkine on Plein 1940, in the Leuvehaven. A few minutes walk from the metro / train, tram and water taxi stops, the Market Hall and the market, the Oude Haven, the Witte de With and the Koopgoot. So many hotspots are very close! Free parking is possible at P + R Kralingse Zoom (maximum of 72 hours, and you have to travel by public transportation (7 minutes by subway), or on the Noordereiland (more than a quarter of an hour's walk). expensive, in the parking garages it is cheaper.Mn parking garage Markthal has relatively fine rates (you have to book in advance)
