Prince van Orangiën was initially the home and office of a ship-owner who cruised in Europe with his mud-fleet. The ship was built in 1935 in Vahali te Gendt, Holland and has served as a private home until 2007.

Prince van Orangiën is a very prestigious ship, when constructed economizing was not the issue. The decoration is made with oak, ebony, Brazilian rosewood as well as Belgian slate and five different sorts of marble.

The ship is meticulously looked after and maintained by its former owner, why we as the fourth owners have tried to minimize our efforts to transform Prince Van Orangiën from a home into a small and personal hotel.
