Moored riverboat lofts
Permanently moored at the industrial NDSM Wharf, this converted river cruiser pairs basic floating cabins with five giant red rooftop lofts.
What it’s good at
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The creative shipyard at NDSM Wharf surrounds the pier, with a free ten-minute public ferry running across the IJ to Centraal.
The rooms
Standard cabins offer compact, functional riverboat berths, while five sculptural rooftop letter lofts hold individual designs like an indoor skate ramp.
Bar & Communal Lounge
The onboard lounge serves drinks beside water-facing windows, with red barstools and a red-felt pool table.
At the table
A daily breakfast buffet of cold cuts and cheeses is laid out in the colorful dining room.
How it began
Owner Sandra Chedi commissioned architects and designers to build five giant letter suites styled after vintage ocean liner smokestacks.
