Experience Maritime History on the ss Rotterdam

As the former flagship of the Holland-America Line, the Steamship Rotterdam sailed the seven seas. Today, the ss Rotterdam—the largest ocean liner ever built in the Netherlands—is permanently moored in the Maashaven, near Katendrecht. This iconic ship offers a one-of-a-kind experience: eat, drink, sleep, party, meet or work in a setting full of maritime charm. Explore the authentic areas of ‘La Grande Dame’ on tours, including the impressive engine room and panoramic ship decks. Savour a meal at the Lido Grill Restaurant, where dishes are prepared to perfection in a traditional charcoal oven. Unwind with a glass of wine at the Ocean Wine Bar, enjoying stunning views of Rotterdam’s skyline. And don’t miss an indulgent treat: complimentary cake with coffee or tea at the Captain’s Lounge.
