Rotterdam, The Netherlands
The steamship Rotterdam is the largest oceangoing steamer ever built in the Netherlands.
After its launch in 1959, it became the flagship of the Holland America Line and sailed to many parts of the world. The ship is now permanently moored in Rotterdam’s Maashaven (Meuse Harbour) near Katendrecht.
The vessel’s history can be felt everywhere on board. The 1950’s interior and its many artworks were lovingly restored between 2005 and 2008. The hotel rooms, restaurants, conference and exposition rooms, and other amenities have been thoroughly modernised and satisfy all of today’s needs.
