WE stayed here for 3 nights with some friend to explore Rotterdam. Great location, close to the main train station, with Metro and tram stops within 200m and a few restaurants near by. The room itself was pretty poor, the window did not shut properly and despite informing reception this was not fixed at any point, our key card kept... More

The hotel is really close to the Central Rail Station and is in the centre of Rotterdam. Kind staff, free PCs with Internet in the lobby, kettle in the room and DELICIOUS and varied buffet for breakfast. However, it was a little loud at night (there's a nightclub just next door so make sure the room isn't facing Kruiskade street).... More

I didn't spend the night here, but was here a day during the Marathon of Rotterdam. While the runners were running (relay-race) we spend the whole day in the hotel with all bags as a central meeting point. We tried to order some coffee and tea, but the man at the reception said: "it's to busy now, so I can't... More

I stayed at the hotel for one night with a friend of mine and we really enjoyed our stay. To be fair we had planned to stay at a hostel but the price was so good here we tried it. The room was nice, clean, quiet. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and we got a free drink. The... More

We stayed here for 2 nights and found it to be quite old and worn out. The lift was broken and we were staying on the 4th floor. The cleaning crew used some kind of foul smelling cleaning supplies. The noise from people shouting in the alley was annoying. The breakfast was marginal, and the bacon was really bad. The... More

Great location. Only 5 mins away from central station and to the city downtown. Very helpful and pleasant staff. The room there is large and clean. Free internet in reception. The breakfast is excellent and included in the price! Telephone does not work in the room. Hotel is old. More

The Central is a cheapish hotel right in the centre of Rotterdam, near the Coolsingel. It's a 10-minute walk from the train station and near the major tram and underground lines. It's worn and very much in need of renovation -not that I expect they will renovate any time soon. The downstairs bar and lounge are somewhat smutty. The rooms... More

We came to the hotel last November for my other half's birthday, and upon our return lodged a complaint to the site which it was booked from. Over a year and no reply, so I decided to share our 'experiences' on here! Our first impressions were fairly positive- it's an imposing building with a great central location. End of the... More
