Hotels near W. G. Witteveenplein, Rotterdam

Booked just one night. . The women at the reception was really nice. I didn't know I had to pay 50 euro deposit, I didn't had credit card. She was nice by telling me nearby ATM. Room was clean. Not that small, actually big enough. Really nice looking bathroom.

The hotel is located close to the subway station and is very convenient to take a ride to the attractions. The surrounding area is very lively. There are many large stores, department stores, restaurants, supermarkets and convenience stores. The triple room is spacious and clean.

Zeer net en ruim opgezet hotel met voldoende parkeergelegenheid. Schone kamers, niet super de luxe; maar van alle gemakken voorzien je kunt een bakje koffie of thee op de kamer klaarmaken en met fijne bedden (1102). Vriendelijk en behulpzaam, Nederlands sprekend, personeel. Je kunt tot 23.45 nog een drankje bestellen in de lounge, mocht je dat willen. Het ontbijtbuffet is behoorlijk uitgebreid met diverse broodjes (hard/zacht/hartig/zoet), English breakfast, verschillende soorten yoghurt, fruit en beleg en american pancakes en een grote diversiteit aan warme en koude dranken. Er loopt voldoende, vriendelijk personeel rond waardoor je je erg welkom voelt. Wat helaas, vooral voor onze kinderen, erg vervelend was, was dat er een mevrouw in het hotel verbleef die nare en beledigende dingen naar ons riep toen wij na het ontbijt terug gingen naar onze hotelkamer. Het kwam op ons over alsof zij behoorlijk onder invloed was van iets; ze liep/ danste intimiderend in de foyer rond in haar badjas en met een handdoek om haar haar gebonden alsof ze de hele nacht al sinds de avond ervoor onderweg was naar de badkamer. Ze lachte onze zoon uit toen hij bijna tussen de liftdeur kwam wat voor hem echt heel vervelend was. Voor een net hotel als dit was dat wel een afknapper na zo'n geweldig ontbijt en verblijf. Als ik de eigenaar was had ik haar eruit gezet. Wat ook jammer was, waren de omgevingsgeluiden. Rondom het hotel is men bezig met werkzaamheden waardoor je (zelfs op de 11e verdieping) vroeg gewekt wordt door vrachtwagens die af en aan rijden.

We stayed at The James for 5 nights in the middle of July. It's a nice hotel - centrally located that' s walking distance to the train station, restaurants and attractions. The room we stayed in was a good size and nicely appointed. As part of the package we had use of 2 bikes for a full day. We took the bikes out on July 19 for a ride around Kinderdijk, which was about 20km away by waterbus. One of the bikes felt sluggish from the start but we attributed the problem to underinflated tires. Unfortunately, that wasn't the issue. It was making a loud pinging noise when it was put in reverse as in backing out of a bike rack on the ferry. The pedals were freewheeling as soon as we started riding when we came off the ferry. I emailed the hotel about the issue immediately but didn't hear anything back for over half an hour. A local pointed us to a bike shop 2 km away and off we went. This was the hottest day (39 C) the Netherlands had experienced in over a decade and we had almost 60 km to cover, so we wanted an earlier start. By the time the hotel emailed us back we were already at the bike shop getting it fixed. There's simply no way that we'd wait another hour or 2 for the hotel to send help. The mechanic was so disappointed with the bike's condition that he said the hotel should pay for the repair and that they may call him if they had any questions. The front desk told us their bike supplier would likely pay us back for the repair but 3 weeks later we're still waiting. The point is: I took the bike from the hotel, not their supplier. Any reasonable hotel would compensate their customers and deal with their supplier on their own. I'm not going to get too upset losing 35 euros but this shows how terrible customer service is with this hotel. You may stay there and it should be OK as long as nothing goes wrong.

Booked this in a rush without checking TA - big mistake. On checking in the staff (who were the only positive) handed me some ear plugs !. At this point I considered walking to another hotel (should have done). You will not get any sleep here - with earplugs in the street noise was almost bearable (soft thudding of the nearby club) however the paper thin walls internally meant you could loudly hear other residents - I’m a heavy sleeper and was woken up at 4:45 (after finally getting to sleep at 1) - now this didn’t seem to be loud partygoers, just people talking relatively loudly managed to wake me up with earplugs in !!. WiFi/tv etc all fine, no air con so hot, but the other thing was I read these reviews before I went to bed on bedbugs. To be clear I didn’t see any - but to mitigate I slept above the covers with a long sleeve T-shirt. I do have a bite on my ankle but that may be a mozzie / happened elsewhere. This place is only fit for people on a big night out - get smashed, pass out on the bed, leave as it is in a great location. Anyone else heed the above - harder to enjoy a great city with no sleep.

Hotel is near to central train station. Walkable to attractions like Rotterdam waterfront and the Cube House. Close to all amenities such as shopping streets and food establishments. Room is clean and comfortable though not a big room but good for a couple. Breakfast spread is limited but sufficient to fill your stomach with nutritional food early morning. Good and we had a wonderful stay in the hotel.

We stayed here as 2 friends for 2 nights. Positives - The communal area is bright, airy and modern - The staff were very friendly and helpful - The hotel allowed us to keep our bags there once we'd checked out before our train home - The hotel is relatively well positioned in the city, about a 15 minute walk away from the centre - The air con was a real positive! Cons - The room itself reminded us of a room in a hostel. It was relatively basic (no chair, a tiny TV) - There were some very questionable stains on the way into the room (it looked like someone had vomited prior to our arrival). There were also some stains on the skirting board by the bedhead. - The room was not ready at 3pm when we arrived and we had to wait about half an hour for it to be ready. Overall it was pretty cheap so we couldn't complain too much but it'd be nice to have the stains rectified for future guests!

The room was clean and the design of hotel was so cool. But because of lack of any windows to outside and lack of natural lighting, the room was good just for sleeping. And there wasn’t any fresh air. The breakfast was ok but just black coffee was on breakfast and if you want to drink cappuccino, you should pay extra for it. Beside that, the location of hotel was pretty good.

there was no plug for the bath and shower handle broken. Average room with good shutters to make the room dark. Good TV. Just a pity you cannot wash yourselve. Not possible to book online with a mastercard or visq card.

The location is in the most central place, all attractions are nearby, the gentleman at the front desk is very nice, he will explain everything you want to know, and I will definitely recommend it to all friends who come to the Netherlands!
