Description of Intersail
Magical Amsterdam! Our floating hotel 'Christina' offers Bed & Breakfast Our 'botel' is Low budget but high service and our boat is located near the Prins Hendrikkade: Oosterdok! We are within a few minutes walk from Amsterdam Central, the Dam, the Newmarket and the Rembrandt Square. Our small and cozy cabins have hot and cold running water. The showers and toilets are well maintained and our staff is most friendly. We offer you an enjoyable and welcoming saloon where a royal breakfast awaits you in the morning. Prices include breakfast, made beds and towels. The 4 person cabins are better to be used for 3 adults. Don't take too much lugage in these cabins! The bedlength is 1.90 m. We sail in summer till oktober: that's why the cabins are not always free during the week. If you like cycling and sailing? Whether you choose to venture in to town or enjoy our spacious sun deck to relax - we look forward to having you as our guests! Check out 11:00 a.m. Checking in between 14:00 and 21:30 (please make sure you send us an email with your arrival time so that we can meet you at the boat)
