Our hints & tips
This former Dutch shipping office turned boat-shaped hotel is unmissable, purely for its conserved architectural features from its previous life.
The stunning central chamber ceiling, made of stained glass maps and zodiac signs, is not to be missed. Having taken 10 years to restore, this hotel retains its charm whilst offering modern facilities such as a large indoor swimming pool, steam room, sauna and gym.
