The staff were super helpful with directions and storing my luggage
Very friendly and charming
Comfortable bed and a quiet restful sleep 👍
22.01.2026 Guest
Everything is so perfect. Four stop away from Rotterdam central if you taking a tram. I enjoyed walking around and the staffs are friendly and helpful. Love the cozy space and the coffee in room is a plus point!

We stayed two nights at Hotel van Walsum.
A beautiful historic building, well-maintained, and friendly staff! Very affordable too.
What a wonderful hotel: fantastic service, beautiful rooms with everything you need, good amenities (everything works and is clean), tastefully decorated, and a delicious breakfast buffet with a garden view. And all of this in the heart of Rotterdam, within walking distance of the city center.
It officially has a 3-star rating, but for us, it deserves more!
19.10.2025 Guest
The reception staff are very friendly, and the hotel has just been renovated — the environment is decent. However, if you’re driving an SUV or a large vehicle, the hotel’s parking lot might not be accessible.

The hotel meets expectations. The economy room is just the right size. The breakfast was good.
21.06.2025 Guest
Nice hotel, great room and delicious breakfast. Location is great, quick access to the city center.
04.06.2025 Guest
An antique and beautiful hotel. Friendly staff. A charming garden and a touch of old-world charm.
31.05.2025 Guest
It's an old building hotel. I don't know about other new hotels, but this one has a European-style structure and the interior is made of old wood, so when guests come and go, the floor creaks a lot, which is annoying when you're in the room. It looks like an old facility, but it seems to be well-maintained compared to other facilities. There's a lot of dust and noise because they're building a building across the two-lane road. Even at 2:30 in the morning, they don't do any construction using machines, but the thumping noise of people putting things down is quite loud. On weekends or in the evenings, there are pubs, cafes, and coffee shops (**) lined up nearby, so drunk people walk around screaming. The rooms aren't soundproof at all.
24.03.2025 Guest
Highly recommended! I especially want to praise the staff; they were incredibly nice and had excellent service – not impatient at all! The servers were very attentive and greeted us proactively. Highly recommend them for their service!
30.01.2024 Guest
Pros: friendly staff, clean, central location
Cons: thin walls, tired facilities
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
Think about what you would like to know if you were looking for a review about a place to relax. Please describe in detail what you liked and what you didn't. What would you advise to other guests and to the hotel owner. The more fully you tell about the hotel, the easier it will be for other people to make a choice and they will be very grateful to you!
