"Great location , next to supermarket and easy access to tube and tram stops. Restaurant and bar were lovely. We booked family room as needed 2 separate beds and that was only option. Room felt dated and in need of TLC. We did report an issue with our room (toilet seat hanging off) which we hoped would be sorted, but that wasn’t dealt with whilst we were there. Beds were very comfortable. We had a lovely stay, just wished they’d sorted the toilet seat for us."

Top Natural History Museum Hotel Reviews

The James Hotel Rotterdam

8/10 Good

"Centrally located hotel within a 10-15 minute walk from Rotterdam Centraal train station. Great for sight seeing and easy Metro access. Soundproofing in the hotel could be better as traffic noise ( horns and revving engines) in to the early hours on both Friday and Saturday nights could easily be heard. Mentioned to hotel staff."

NH Atlanta Rotterdam

8/10 Good

"Great location, close to train station and shops/restaurants. Comfy bed and good size. It was noisy at night due to the traffic as the window was not sound proof and they didn't clean the cups or surfaces - just made the bed and fresh towels"

Motto by Hilton Rotterdam City Centre

8/10 Good

"These rooms really push the absolute limit of how small a hotel room can be. I'm glad we only brought one suitcase, because I don't know where we could have fit a second one. I don't know if an overweight person could be comfortable. The sink is very near the bed, so you can't get ready without waking the other person up. The worst part was the glass doors on the shower and toilet... they don't reach all the way to the ceiling or floor, and there's no exhaust fan. This means whoever you are staying with gets intimately familiar with your bowel habits, and the shower water runs outside the stall, making a huge puddle you have to clean up each time. THAT SAID: The bed was the best hotel bed I've ever experienced. They've tried to max out the useful space by adding little shelves everywhere. The TV was huge. The room was very quiet and very clean. The service was excellent. The location is fantastic for walking. I would definitely stay again as a solo traveler, but maybe not with two people."

Holiday Inn Express Rotterdam - Central Station by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms very clean and roomy. Nice location. Breakfast very good. Was able to leave bags after checking out. No ice bucket or fridge- maybe cultural thing? Overall really enjoyed stay"

Urban Residences

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice location and appartment"

Motel One Rotterdam

H3 Hotel Rotterdam City Center

Leonardo Hotel Rotterdam Savoy

8/10 Good

"Our room was large and the bed was great as was the shower but the room itself needed a good dusting."

Hilton Rotterdam

8/10 Good

"Room nice and quiet and clean . Lift space seems a bit shabby but otherwise ok . Breakfast ok but sausages and bacon could be better."
