Rotterdam (Amsterdam Class)

The elaborate astrolabe rising 30 feet above a marble floor in the heart of the central atrium is a finely detailed sculpture as well as a timepiece. Its four faces display an astrolabe, world clock, planetary clock, and astrological clock; the carillon in its base is a delicate melodic contrast to the intricate mechanism visible through the glass.


Rotterdam is a sister shop to Amsterdam. It sails on world cruises and extended voyages. One of the most traditional ships in the fleet, Rotterdam interiors display abundant wood appointments in the public areas on Promenade and Lower Promenade decks. There is also priceless art throughout. The Ocean Bar, Explorer's Lounge, Java Café, Wajang Theater, and Crow's Nest are familiar lounges to longtime Holland American passengers. Newer additions are a thermal suite in the spa, a culinary-arts demonstration center in the theater, and expansive areas for children and teens.

Former Holland America captain Stephen Card commemorates his love for ships and the sea by creating technically accurate paintings of Holland America Line ships, both past and present. Ask at reception for a "Self-Guided Artwork Tour" list, and look for five of Captain Card's paintings on display aboard Prinsendam.
