Hotelships Holland - MS Charles Dickens  

In Cologne, about 1 km from the city center and a short walk to the Chocolate Museum, Historische Senfmuehle and Haymarket. This floating hotel/cruise ship sets sail from Cologne for part of your stay — city base by day, vessel by sea for part of the trip.

Settle into one of 76 individually furnished guestrooms with private bathrooms, showers, TVs, hair dryers and complimentary toiletries. Rooms come with desks, phones and safes, and the ship’s vibe mixes boutique cabin comforts with practical city-hotel touches.

Soak in the spa tub or unwind at the on-board sauna and spa center, keep fit in the 24-hour fitness center, or lose yourself in the ship’s library. On the premises you’ll also find a restaurant, bar, coffee shop, parking zone, elevator access, laundry and concierge services.

Desks in rooms, wireless internet access (surcharge noted), a 24-hour front desk, multilingual staff and luggage storage make work and transit simple.

Enjoy meals at the on-board restaurant, grab snacks or a top coffee in the café, and end the night with a drink in the bar/lounge. Room service is available during limited hours.
