At night, when cold(er) outside, humidity condensates against the steel window frame. Some drips in your bed may appear - nothing to worry about, but you are better aware that you open all windows when taking a shower.

The place to be in Nijmegen! Especially on a sunny spring day. Enjoy the Waal, multiple people of all kinds, nice apple pie and snack plates on board and good coffee. Staff is extremely helpful and even when they were very busy, they'd serve you with a smile. Rooms are fine and very nicely decorated in the old boat style.

Nothing not to like

Liked everything - the location - the staff - the atmosphere and the breakfast.

Everything about the whole ‘Opoe Sintje’ experience was amazing as always

Adorable boat, really cosy. You could serve yourself from the bar and spend as much time in the dining area as you wanted

A great experience on a real boat. Lots of interesting things to look at and very comfortable. Highly recommend for families!

Suzannah welcomed us on to the boat and even though it was busy she was so lovely. The boat and location are truly really special. We couldn’t believe it! Food was excellent and we were looked after very well.

It’s a boat, and it was a really hot day, the one fan in the room was at its limit :/

Great location, right next to a lovely spot for swimming. There’s so much character in all the rooms. My favorite thing was the staff: not only do they allow dogs, but they generously agreed to look after both of mine while I was out for a few hours. That meant everything. ❤️

Some parts could do with a thorough clean

It is very unusual and the staff are friendly.

We just loved it!

We loved the spacious rooms, the atmosphere, the proximity to the water and nature, the location near museums and the town, the evening music, the friendly people, the service - so special and a wonderful finish to our holiday!

There was nothing I didn't like but the weather

It was very quirky, clean and the staff were superb

The images don't lie: you'll be sleeping in a "boat bed" on a boat. I loved it! Consider that these are no ordinary hotel rooms and there is no A/C. But while you will have forgotten about most hotel rooms by the time you're back home, you'll never forget your stay at this lovely, neat place.

If I had to say anything, I would mention the fact that the bathtub was a bit uncomfortable when we wanted to shower, since it didn't have a curtain or something to prevent the water from splashing all over the floor.

We loved the boat, it was our first experience in an accommodation like this one. The location, the cleanliness, the friendly staff, the room and the restaurant area were so cozy and comfy. We would definitely repeat. Great breakfast and pet friendly.

Everything went well! We had booked for 1 night and when we had our dinner, we extended for an extra night. Friendly welcome, cosy relaxed atmosphere. A very nice experience. Varied breakfast and delicious evening meal too. Thank you Jelle for the good service and nice conversations, you are a topper!

The hanging like clicked with the movement of the boat and doors didn't lock from the inside, just a latch that in our first room could have been unlocked with a card pushing the latch upwards. We asked to move and were lucky it was only us staying so were able to. Walls are very thin and can hear everyone walking around.

Our original room was really cool, with the reformed bed being a boat. We swapped room, the bath was huge! Beds were super comfy. Location was great only a short walk into town, beautiful veiw of the river and bridge. Both rooms were beautiful.

It was not possible to close the bathroom window. The light in the bathroom is not sufficient, and there is only a small mirror.

Fun place, great breakfast!

Parking a bit cumbersome. Toilet in room could do with a curtain.

Casual, relaxed and very friendly. Great for bringing a dog.

Stayed in August 2023

for the price payed, I would expect to get more comforts in the room: there was only one soap for everything (shower and hands) -> at least hands, shampoo, shower gel are required for basics; conditioner and skin lotion a plus. wifi signal was basically non existent in the room, I had to go on the room balcony outside to get a stable one. coffee capsules were over and were not refilled during my stay.

really liked the location and the room. Breakfast was very good and enough. The apartment room was equipped with water boiler with tea, capsule coffee machine, a little kitchenette and a fridge. Some glasses ,cups and kitchen utensils were provided with sponge and dish soap, but it didn't make me feel it would be a good place to actually cook.

What a great place to stay, the owner was so accommodating. If you want to stay somewhere unique, this is the place to stay.

It was a struggle with the heat in bedrooms at night. Fans were supplied but was sooo hot!

Lovely quirky place to stay. Staff really friendly and atmosphere relaxed.
