A Home From Home
There is no better place for sleeping than in one's own bed. Therefore it is advised for most travellers to stay where they are.
Our guesthouse, which came into being from the "Seamen's Mission," is not the usual kind of hotel. Comprising only six rooms in an old canal house, it is almost like a large apartment dwelling. It includes a day room with sitting area and a galley (no stove) for quick self-service.
Employees quickly get to know the guests and answer questions and requests with pleasure.
Room availabilityPlease email or call us in the time between 09:00-17:00.

New faces in the guest house team |
|||
|
Every year in September/October, our team changes. This is when new volunteers start their service - to return to Germany after 12 months of many new experiences and, for example, to start their studies. We are grateful that every year people are willing to work at our place. Both have just completed their first weeks with us. They will be present at the reception of the guesthouse as well as on board the ships. Van harte welkom! |

Travelling to the Netherlands |
|||
|
The Corona pandemic brought with it many new terms and many more rules. Some people lose track of them all - which is understandable. Again and again we get calls asking what the situation is like in Amsterdam. Very good and comprehensible explanations of the Dutch rules can be found (continuously updated) here: www.nach-holland.de/corona-virus (german only). |

Fundraising campaign "Weihnachten am Ohr 2019"
They were happy - many hundreds of sailors. They expected our visits in the days before Christmas. It is quite normal for seamen to be visited by someone from a seafaring mission. Nevertheless, we were able to surprise them: with a gift. A greeting from shore on board: a prepaid sim card that allows you to use the internet and make phone calls. As on land, messenger services are being used more and more. This is how sailor families hear and see each other at Christmas.
We thank all the many donors who made it possible for us to give away 550 sim cards. In total, the Amsterdam station distributed 950 gifts.

Working in Covid-19-Times |
|
|
In addition to mouth-nose masks, which are compulsory in all public areas of our guest house, the indoor air in the office is circulated 8x per hour by an air purifier. This device is equipped with 3 filters - including a Hepa-14 filter that removes viruses from the air. A second unit is located in the breakfast room. Both are building blocks of our hygiene concept. |
