No one was on premises so we could not ask them to hold our luggage for us. Stairs to the room were very steep and small. It was difficult to bring our heavy bags up and down the stairs. Also, they told us our key cards would work on the entrance door, but they did not. We had to use the entrance code on the keypad to get in."

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."

10/10 Excellent
"We had a very nice stay at the hotel and I would absolutely recommend it. It is located in an ideal spot in the city close to the train station and most tourist attractions with Depot and Sonnevelde House literally next door. The staff were extremely helpful when we had a few requests and were a credit to the hotel. My only small gripe is that there aren’t enough staff on at breakfast so certain options would run out quite often. The staff were rushed off their feet and still extremely helpful but they need more help. Overall I highly recommend the hotel and would definitely stay again if we visit Rotterdam."
