De relaxte sfeer aan boord en de leuke ligging dichtbij het centrum en de natuur.
Mijn dochter en ik hebben heerlijk spelletjes gespeeld in het café en gehangen op de banken boven op het dek.
Tip: neem een oogmasker mee. Boven het bed is een daklicht met een dun gordijntje. Dus als je wil uitslapen is een oogmasker prettig.

De accommodatie is erg origineel en uniek, het was een hele leuke ervaring om een keer op een boot te slapen! Ook was het bed erg comfortabel.

Locatie en bijzondere ervaring.
Het was muf, beschimmeld en oud.

Hele leuke relaxte sfeer, mooi aangekleed en heel vriendelijk personeel
Eigenlijk was alles meer dan goed. De ventilator op de kamer was alleen een beetje stoffig waardoor er wat stof door de kamer werd geblazen maar dat was denk ik gewoon een keertje pech.

Een belevenis, sfeervol niet varend museum waar je regelmatig wordt getrakteerd op live muziek door passanten, personeel, die op een van de vele muziekinstrumenten aan boord spelen. Op een geweldige locatie in het centrum bijna onder de Waalbrug. Geweldig ontbijt.
Gehorig als je geen rekening houdt met elkaar. Wij hadden rustige buren. De boot vaart niet;-)

The vibe was great, the lounge area/restaurant was so cosy. We loved chatting with the stuff - super friendly international students. The apartment was really authentic, with comfortable beds, bathtub and so much space.
The winter is not the right season to visit Nijmegen and the boat itself. We had the feeling that we are missing so much because of the cold weather. Even though the apartment and the lounge area were warm, the windows were single glass and I could feel the cold while sleeping.

Great location and atmosphere. Very friendly staff and nice bar area. Many different beers in stock. Definitely recommended if you're not a very light sleeper.
Quite a lot of noise from the other rooms. Woke me up when neighbors came back to the hotel at 1am.

Very nice and special hotel located in several boats. The staffs are very nice. The rooms are very warm. There is a small kitchen with a fridge.
The floors are very dirty. We have to clean them again by ourselves.

Very friendly. Really nice staff. Great breakfast. Comfortable bed.
We could not park next to the boat. Parking was in a nearby car park and cost an extra €11. In fairness though we did know that before we arrived as that was made clear on the booking info.

Super friendly staff. Good food and good drinks and a comfy bed in a cozy room
I get the style they're going for but the old cobwebs next to the ones the big spiders were building at the moment were a bit much.
10.0 / 10.0
Full of character & an amazing experience!
The room was quirky but clean (with the odd atmospheric cobweb which was to be expected).
Falling asleep gazing at the stars through the window above the bed was a truly unforgettable experience.
The staff were so helpful & extremely accommodating...couldn't have been more helpful if they tried!
Might be a bit difficult to maneuver for guests with mobility issues - there were steep steps down to the accommodation.

Opoe Sientje is also a public bar. Open until midnight. Cleaning up until 01 am....next to our room. Make a choice....when you want to be a hotel...close at 23h and be quiet at midnight....or don t accept guests and open the bar until 01 am

A genuinely gorgeous and relaxing place to stay. Rooms were very spacious and comfortable given it's on a boat.
Very chill ambience and a lovely common room with an open bar. Or, if its sunny, have a beer and snack as the sun sets from the deck of the boat.
The continental breakfast was extensive and yummy.
Great location literally on the water, close to restaurants along the river or a short walk up the hill into the old town.
They even welcomed my hamster to stay and looked after him while I was in a meeting (that is 'luggage storage' service!)
There was no ac in the rooms and they got very warm and stuffy in the hot weather. But then, it IS a boat.

Great location and such a unique setting! The room looked amazing, the nautical theme was very nicely done.
It was very noisy, it was not the most comfortable night of sleep.
5.0 / 10.0
Personnel is really nice, breakfast is fine, interesting idea and interior, good location. The bed was comfortable.
Really noisy until 23.00-23.30 as there is a restaurant on the same boat (laughter, talks, breaking glass), the bath is not stable and the window in the bathroom doesn’t close, also no curtain there. The place is old and not very clean, requires some repairs. The plate, forks, knifes - very dirty, with the rests of food of previous guests. During the night there are some annoying noises, and it’s cold at night inside.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was lovely. Room and ship were cosy and comfortable. There was definitely a festival vibe around the terrain. The boat made us think of Pippi Longstocking, for us this was excellent. The boat (also in winter) was surprisingly warm. A can-do mentality from the staff.
We liked everything :)
