The best available hotels & places to stay near Rotterdam

August 7, 2022 Agatha Simes

Holland's most modern city began as a fishing village in the 13th century. It was developing into an industrial and trading power when German bombers destroyed the city center and harbor in 1940. However, Rotterdam's unique architecture now brings many visitors to bike around this urbane, cosmopolitan city. Old Dutch-style houses can still be found in historic Delfshaven, from where the pilgrims set sail in 1620. Cultural offerings from summer's carnival to classical music give Amsterdam competition.

CityHub Rotterdam

We love hostels because of their communal feel and hotels because of their privacy. At CityHub, we combined the two: more than enough ways to mingle AND your very own, private cabin. We call those cabins Hubs.

I'll know better next time

Reviewed By arnolds702

An interesting place, one could almost envisage space travel to be like this: the rooms are really 2 opposite hubs with separate entrance doors on opposite sides. In effect your neighbours are sleeping below or above you, depending on their choice of hub. The staff are lovely, very helpful but also very young. This is a place for young, limber, tech savvy 20 to 30 somethings, not for the older, weary boned. That was my own fault, I chose the cheapest option without checking the place out. The facilities are OK, the nice thing is you can bring in whatever you want and consume it wherever, there is no restaurant and whatever bar there is is self service, if there is licenced staff that is, otherwise it stays shut, but there is a communal area where teas and coffees from the vending machines can be consumed. The toilet and washing facilities are not en-suite, which means they are all heavily used, especially during a weekend like the one just gone when it is very busy and the place is full. In that respect they are fairly clean but I expected multiple cleans a day due to usage, and that did not happen A big plus of course was the geographical location, at the beginning of De Witte de Wit straat in the centre of Rotterdam. Incredibly busy part of the city, and yet no problems with noise inside In summary, a nice place if you are looking for a bed only, in between pub visits, and are not too fussed about creature comforts

The ground floor features a large café-restaurant, where 400 guests can enjoy an extensive or simple a-la-carte meal in any price category from early in the morning until late at night.

The one I prefere

Reviewed By ggvigano

I'm afraid to say how much I like this Hotel, because it will increase the number of host and I may not find my room when I need it. Rooms are nice and confortable, Tv has various channels in many languages, which helps foreign visitors and also has a usable menu, that is not common in hotel TVs, which allows yoiu to set the Switch Off Timer...fantastic. The bar and restaurant is awsome. Must try HNY Gin Tonic

Great location and very kind staff

Reviewed By 930tinal

We had a great weekend stay at Room Mate Bruno. It's the perfect hotel to discover the city, everything can be done by foot or you can rent a bike. The front office team was very always very kind and helpful. The gym has all the equipment that you need for a quick workout. The rooms are very well sound proofed, because even though we had our room next to the bar, we heard nothing and could enjoy a good night rest.

A really special hotel with amazing facilities. We stayed in a spa room and had a wonderful trip thanks to the brilliant in-room sauna and jacuzzi. The hotel itself is beautiful and the room was so clean and well thought out. Friendly staff throughout and the breakfast was of extremely high quality. Lovely harbour views too!

Attended a conference at the hotel. Good location. Staff very friendly and attentive. Rooms were fine. Food was a bit disappointing, but then again, it is not unexpected for a business conference. Could use improvement there. Everything else was fine.

Pleasant stay

Reviewed By simoncX7465JA

Had a very pleasant stay at CitizenM in Rotterdam. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful which always helps when you are unfamiliar with the area. The room is a little small but more than adequate with everything controlled by an IPad or phone. The shower is wonderful and the bed very comfortable. To enhance the stay, it would be nice to have tea and coffee making facilities in the room and a few rugs to make it more homely.
