Hotel facilites and services

Hotel information

The ship is 24 metres long, 5 metres wide and 2.10 metres high. It was built in 1897 and has been used as sailing freight ship in the past to move coal, turf, potatoes and wheat from one part of Holland to another. In the 1950's a few idealists started restoring these boats to sailing ships again, of course with certain luxury. The ship was from then on used as a sailing boat for participating guests, who wanted to make trips in the summer in the shallow waters of Holland, Ijsselmeer and Waddensea. You can find the ship across from the address: Hoge der a 10, Groningen

Comments

Guest rooms are on board a ship; rooms are cabins. Therefore lodging cannot be compared with hotel rooms. Staying on the ship is primarily nice because of the maritime atmosphere, and not because of hotel standards.

Food & Beverage

Groups can make use of the kitchen on request. The skipper can make a traditional Dutch Marine dinner for you if requested. The ship is located near the city centre. On the large market squares Vismarkt (fresh fish at a 5-minute walk) and Grote Markt (clothing at a 7-minute walk), there are also several restaurants and pubs.

Continental breakfast is included in the room rate.
