The rain in Spain stays mainly in the crane.

Well, here we are again, tempted by another episode by that ever-curious ever-curious persnickety Walk With Me Tim. He is nothing if not thorough in his videos and this one is no exception. Here, he climbs a crane to sleep for the night. And so can you. Of course you can stay here too. We would be remiss if we didn’t give the skinny on where it is, how to get there.

Set in a former harbour crane 50 metres high and located at NDSM shipyard, Crane Hotel Faralda features design suites overlooking the IJ. Free WiFi access is offered in each suite. Amsterdam Central Station is just across the river and can be reached in 10 minutes by taking the ferry, which has a station within 600 metres of the hotel. Each luxurious suite is a luxury-designed cube split over 2 floors.

There is seating area and separate bedroom with a king-size bed and a bath tub. The private bathroom is fitted with a rain shower and a toilet. For a surcharge, guests can enjoy breakfast served in the suite. The hotel is 7.9 km from Dam Square and 8.4 km from Anne Frank House. Shopping centre Buikslotermeerplein is only 3.7 km away. Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.9 for a two-person trip. Ready for fun? Click here
