The location of the canal house was perfect. Close enough to be able to walk to the central station, shops and restaurants, but still quiet for sleeping. Basics were provided (soap, shampoo etc) and a cute little welcome pack of Dutch treats on...

Loved the unique style next to the canal, short walk to train station . Lots of great restaurants to try but also close to grocery store to make some meals at “home”.

Lage ist überragend für einen Städtetrip. Die Unterkunft liegt kultig an der zentralen Gracht und ist gut ausgestattet. Gute Kommunikation durch den Vermieter.

Enjoy your stay, and if you have any questions, feel free to ask! Additional History: These wharf cellars are unique in the world and can only be found on this scale in Utrecht. Historically, supplies arrived in Utrecht by water, and the wharves are situated below street level to mitigate flooding risks. Over time, merchants built tunnels under their houses, and by the 17th century, they had extended their cellars. These lower spaces, kept cool and close to water, were ideal for storing food in the days before modern refrigeration.

Neighbourhood information

Since you're in the very center of Utrecht, all the restaurants, museums, theatres, and any attraction you can think of, are at walking distance. Utrecht is number 6 in Lonely Planet's top 10 of the world's unsung places: "Perhaps it’s the lure of Amsterdam that leads people to forget Utrecht. Whatever the reason, this graceful city is bizarrely under-visited. Its old town is encircled by a medieval canal, and you can hop on a boat tour to visit the city’s bustling, vibrant wharves. Built to connect the canalside with Utrecht’s impressive townhouses, today these unique spaces are filled with bohemian cafes, shops, restaurants and bars." - Supermarket: Albert Heijn – 1 min. walk - Gym: De Workout - 1 min. walk - Café/bar: Stathe – 1 min. walk - Restaurant: De zwarte Vosch – 1 min. walk - Bike rental: Willemstraatbike – 3 min. walk - Canoe rental: Kano huren Utrecht – 5 min. walk - Tivoli – 7 min. walk - Utrecht central station – 8 min. walk - Dom Tower – 10 min. walk
