“A very cool hotel on the canal - its historic exterior complemented with up to the minute interiors. Boutique suites have mezzanine levels, warm decoration, and state of the art mod cons. Lively bar serving lunches and snacks make this spot a must for young couples and groups of friends. ”

Hotel review

A luxury guest house in a historic harbourside building, elegantly styled and with a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere. Out of the main centre, but close to a water-taxi stop. A conversion of a handsome, 19th-century customs office, on the south side of the Nieuwe Maas river, this is more discreet luxury hotel than guest house. High-ceilinged rooms are stylishly furnished with a mix of vintage and contemporary pieces: Chesterfields and velvet-upholstered chairs in the snug bar (once the clerks' office); Philippe Starck chairs in the airy breakfast room. Uncluttered bedrooms are quietly elegant, often with a witty recycled touch - a mirror made out of an old door or a desk of recycled timber. All have high-tech music systems, interesting bathrooms - perhaps a steam cabinet or beamed ceiling - and watery views, whether of river or harbour.  Breakfast is simple but good with organic meats and cheeses, and eggs how you want. There's an all-day snacks menu - when it's warm, served on the harbourside terrace - plus charcuterie and cheese boards in the evening. Although a good 30-minute walk to the main sites, there's a water-taxi stop across the road, plus it's only 15 minutes to the hip Katendrecht district.
