Even better than it sounded

Was pretty excited to stay in a houseboat in a town outside Amsterdam. Certainly all the charm & peacefulness you can imagine. What I didn't expect was how sleek and well set up is the residence, how private and welcoming is the patio. But the most wonderful surprises are how close we found ourselves to the ferry over the river which put us right in the gorgeous old town! Centuries old buildings, winding canals, glorious ancient churches and municipal structures...along with lots of quaint bars & restaurants, and easy access to shopping. My wife has trouble walking, but it was easy to park close by, and pay at the kiosk barely a block away. Parking garage by the cheese market (a must see!) also easy to use for going into the old town. Close to the highway for 30 minutes trip into Amsterdam. We found this so comfortable, idyllic, and perfectly located it was difficult to leave!

Schön gelegens Hausboot, die Veranda, nicht zur Grachtenseite war sehr spartanisch möbeliert.

Sehr ruhig gelegen, schöne Aussicht auf die Grachten.

Empfehlenswert

Der Aufenthalt war toll. Das Hausboot liegt zentral. Allerdings könnten ein paar Sachen verbessert werden. Die Gartenmöbel waren total verschmutzt. Motto: Willst du sie nutzen, dann mach sie selbst sauber. Ein Toaster wäre hilfreich.

Hausboot Alkmaar

Hausboot liegt sehr versteckt, sind erst einmal vorbeigefahren und haben uns zu Fuß auf den Weg gemacht. Im Haus selbst war alles sauber und die Betten gemacht aber es mußten doch ein paar Spinnen entfernt werden. Der 2. Schlafraum besteht nur aus Bett und ohne Schrank für Kleidung der dann im Wohnraum steht. Hier sollte man ein schmaleres Bett hinstellen damit man wenigstens an einer Seite vorbeigehen kann und evntuell am Kopfende eine Abstellmöglichkeit schaffen kann. Wohnraum, Küche und Bad sind gut eingerichtet. Alles in allen war es ein schöner Aufenthalt.

Ideal für Städtetour

Zentrumsnah gelegen, tolle Aussicht in die Grachten. Nur die Parksituation ist schwierid, da die einzigen kostenlosen Parkplätze wegen Baumassnahmen gesperrt waren. Bei einer neuen Tour nach Alkmaar aber gerne wieder!

Excellent situation

A deux minutes du centre par le bac qui traverse en permanence en journée (sauf le dimanche) - bien agréable! Tranquillité totale et quelle vue ! Tout ce qu'il faut pour une semaine mais ne venez pas pour le bain à remous, il n'y en a pas :-(

richtig richtig schön

Es war einfach wunderbar auf diesem tollen Hausboot zu sein. Schöner kann man in Alkmaar und Umgebung nicht wohnen! Man schaut aus den Fenstern und sieht Wasservögel und Boote vorbeiziehen. Die Lage ist zentral und doch ruhig, man hört kein einziges Auto (dafür kann man das eigene allerdings auch nicht direkt vorm Hausboot parken). Es ist mit fast allem, sogar mit Waschmaschine und Wäschetrockner ausgestattet. Wir können es nur weiterempfehlen.

Ruhiges Wohnboot

Sehr gepflegtes und vermutlich recht frisch renovierte Ferienwohnung auf einem Schwimmponton. Gut eingerichtet und ausreichend Platz zum Verstauen. Altstadt von Alkmaar ist tagsüber mit der Fähre in 3 Minuten erreichbar.

Enjoyed our stay

Property was overall very nice. It was clean and very functional. Our family members which we were visiting lived about a two kilometer walk, which was a little inconvenient since they had two small children. It was also a little far from the train station, However, the property was very centrally located to Alkmaar's major attractions. Only downside was that if the ferry wasn't running, you had about a kilometer extra walk to town center. There was also a very loud party next door one night, but it ended by midnight. We very much enjoyed the uniqueness of staying on the canal and would definitely do so in the future. Overall a great experience.
