Johannes

This ship from 1886 used to be part of the Dutch sailing inland waterway, which was used to transport many building materials and foodstuffs. The Johannes has now been converted into a houseboat, of which three floors of the wheelhouse have been furnished for those of you who like to spend the night in the center of Amsterdam but also appreciate some peace and quiet. Cozy street & super central. You will stay privately in the back of the ship, which used to be the wheelhouse and engine room.

Within 15 minutes you are in the center of the city. The bus stop is less than a 1-minute walk away. Parking costs 16 euros per day
