Designed and built in Canada in 1997, in compliance with Transport Canada construction and inspection rules for Small Passenger Vessels, the M/V Latitude Amsterdam is the first ship in the Latitude 45º Nord’s fleet. This hotel ship offers all of the functional characteristics that are found on Dutch “Comfort Deluxe” barges. Everything has been taken into consideration in order to maximize space without compromising the comfort and well-being of passengers. The accommodations are original and welcoming, and the hospitality of the crew is matched only by the cozy ambience.

The ship is transformed into an inn and café while it is docked at its winter port between November and April. It can host visitors for a coffee, a light meal, and “hollandaiseries”: delightful dutch
pastries still undiscovered by most Quebecers. The wonderful café
stands out for its intimate ambience
and original menu.
