What guests think

Travellers describe The James Rotterdam as a modern, centrally located hotel with clean, comfortable rooms and generally friendly staff, though traffic or construction noise and occasional maintenance or Wi-Fi issues are noted.

Guests can walk to Rotterdam Centraal, trams and metros, major sights, and many dining and shopping options. Rooms are often spacious and quiet with comfortable beds, but some are smaller or dark, and views can be limited by nearby construction. Breakfast is via a 24/7 self-serve market and lounge rather than a traditional restaurant, which many find convenient but others find limited. Expect a stylish, well-located base for exploring the city.

Great location for exploring Rotterdam, close to major department store and food outlets - walkable to most central Rotterdam sights. Front-desk staff were helpful, and check-in was smooth. Room was clean and comfortable. Our car was too big for their car elevator into the on-site car park, but - when I enquired about parking ahead of our stay - the hotel advised us to park in Q-Park directly opposite the hotel. Very convenient.

Og vi overså faktumet at det ikke var vanlig frokost buffet men frokostsal hvor du må kjøpe hvert enkelt produkt, savnet buffet , men alt i alt ett flott hotel og bruker det gjerne igjen

This is a nice hotel in a very good location in Rotterdam. Overall we had a pleasant stay. The Market and Guest area on the 2nd floor is excellent with reasonable prices, a decent continental breakfast choice and a wide range of products to choose from, open 24hrs. Reasonably priced alcohol was also available anytime and a free to use ice machine. Unfortunately, the Hotel let itself down with the cleanliness in bathroom of one of the rooms our group had booked. There was a large amount of mould in the shower and visible faecal staining on the toilet seat. We raised this with the Hotel who didi attempt to clean the seat with disinfectant wipes but this did not remove the staining, we were advised the would require chemical treatment which was outsourced to another company?! We ended up buying a bottle of household bleach from the local supermarket and attending to it ourselves! A real shame as everything else was very good.

There was a microwave in the lounge that we used to heat up our meals from the grocery store. The room was quiet for sleeping. Easy walking distance from Central Station and Metro stations as well as many other tourist sites and shopping. Front reception were polite and helpful. We enjoyed our stay.

This is a very average hotel. Pictures look a lot better than what you actually get. I got the superior double room. It was quite small - the bed took up most of the space and you couldn’t really get around it to the other side. Kind of had to shimmy around the edges. There are very few plugs for some reason. No conditioner or lotion in the bathroom. Toilet was separate from the bathroom which was nice… nobody helped me with my massive bags they just gave me a trolley. Second floor has a lounge where you can get plates and stuff and snacks which is great, you pay yourself there. It’s good for the price that I paid, but definitely not a 4 star.

I wish it had a restaurant, but there are so many around that it's not a problem. I was on one of the low floors and barely noticed the traffic noise at all. Would definitely come back and stay again!

Check in was super easy thanks to Amy. She was so amiable and welcoming that it was quite nice to be greeted with that after driving for such a long time. The room was spacious and they gave us a free upgrade which was very much appreciated. The bed was super comfortable. My partner and I both agreed that it felt like we never left home because it was as comfortable as the bed we have back home. The shower had really good water pressure too. We parked at the hotel. It was convenient and front reception have been really kind to help us get our car in and out of the hotel. Overall. We loved our stay at The James Hotel. We totally recommend it to our friends.

We highly recommend this hotel for your stay in Rotterdam!

One can easily walk to all the view points, if one enjoy walking! The James looks new and is well maintained. The staffs are nice. There was a fridge and a coffee machine which is something that I appreciated. A nice place to stay. I do recommend this place. I wish we would have stayed a few more days in Rotterdam.
