Clean, simple and smart hotel. They were understaffed as is everyone these days, but the staff were friendly and helpful. I'd revisit.

Comfortable hotel, stayed multiple times, mixed overall, as service can be so so and sometimes room is run down. This time everything was a good standard although front desk staff are still not the friendliest, but helpful if needed.

Everything was really great, only thing is that the room is a little bit in a need of a reservation. Other than that - top!

Ok value for money, nice staff, but a bit rundown
Easy check in and out, staff helpful and friendly. Place is not as clean as it was when I visited 6 months ago and the room I had was a bit run down. Breakfast is not a bad selection, but overpriced as it’s quite poor quality. Overall the hotel is quite good value for money though and well located near the airport. Not well located if you need to be near the centre, but the local bus service is not bad.

Liked: Amenities
My room overlooked the hotel entrance and people ie smokers would congregate outside at 2.00am and talk loudly. Really annoying and this would happen again at 6.00am

David

Liked: Room comfort
Let down by poor room
Staff were nice enough and ok hotel. But the room was not good; a so called double bed was two twins together and it only ever wanted to seperate in the middle. The aircon made a very subtle noise all night, making it hard to sleep, the room we had did not black out either, with the windows (which you couldn’t open to get air in) looking down into the foyer, so constant light all night. All of which made it hard to sleep.

Anne Marie

Extremely disappointing stay
Stale hotel - comfortable beds and good blackout curtains but light comes in through a large gap in the bedroom door. Kettle and hairdryer in room didn’t work, they had no room available for me at check-in time, common parts on my floor (4) were filthy. Battery was low on my door lock so awkward to get into the room. Staff were indifferent to issues. Room is really badly appointed with big sections unlit. It’s not even handy for Rotterdam. I would absolutely not recommend.

In eerste instantie kregen we een kamer die ons wat tegen viel omdat we voor minder geld beter gewend waren bij Van der Valk. Maar het personeel heeft het meer dan goed gemaakt met een andere kamer die uitstekend was! Dit hotel ligt op een goede locatie. Het ontbijt is fantastisch, uitgebreider dan we bij andere hotels hebben gezien. Als je vervoer goed plant, rij spitsvrij bijvoorbeeld dan is het op deze plek in een drukke verkeerslocatie best te doen. Gewoon bij Diergaarde Blijdorp op het parkeerterrein parkeren in de buurt van de ingang van het hotel en soms heb je geluk en staan de bomen open om uit te rijden. Anders kost een uitrijkaart je vier euro bij de receptie van het hotel. Dat is een koopje vergeleken bij de prijs voor diezelfde uitrijkaart aan de kassa van Diergaarde Blijdorp voor een dag parkeren. Dan kost het je €12,50 voor een dag. Kortom eij vinden dit hotel een aanrader. Zeker voor mensen met een hond!

Enjoyed our stay here
Hotel was lovely. Restaurant and bars were very nice and had a good vibe. Rooms were nice and clean. Dog was allowed everywhere so could sit in restaurant at dinner etc. would return if staying in Rotterdam. Bus stop very close to hotel, so good transport links to the centre.
