Hotels in Rotterdam: from budget to super luxury!
You will find countless hotels in Rotterdam to suit everyone’s taste and wallet. Literally the highest possible is an overnight stay on the Euromast at 100 meters altitude! Where you spend the night exactly does not really matter, because Rotterdam is a relatively compact city with a good metro network and with the metro you get easily to the main attractions and sights. But the most comfortable is a hotel in the center of Rotterdam because then you are within walking distance of all the main shopping streets, cinemas, theaters, restaurants and nightlife.
Luxury hotels in Rotterdam
Rotterdam has three five-star hotels that are all located in the center. The Hilton and Marriott Hotel are both located close to the Central Station in the middle of the center between all shops and restaurants. The Mainport Hotel is located on the other side of the center near the Erasmus Bridge, about a 10-minute walk from the shops in the center. In addition to these five-star hotels, there are plenty of other luxury hotels in Rotterdam city center such as the Bilderberg Parkhotel, NH Atlanta hotel and the Inntel hotel. The big advantage of these hotels is that you are right in between the shops and the nightlife. If you want something special you can also consider staying in Hotel New York or on board the ss Rotterdam. Hotel New York is a historic location in Rotterdam because it is located in the former head office of the Holland America line on one of the most beautiful spots in Rotterdam. Spending the night at the ss Rotterdam is a special experience because you get the chance to stay overnight on a cruise ship. If you really want something special, you can stay overnight at the Euromast at 100 meters. Keep in mind that you are not within walking distance of the shopping streets and nightlife, but by taxi, metro or tram you are there within minutes. Finally, we would also like to mention the CitizenM hotel, because this hotel has a large fan base. The CitizenM hotel is located in the center close to the beautiful Old Harbor and is popular with the trendy rooms, the free movies and the iPad with which you can control the lighting, TV, music and temperature.

Tourist hotels in Rotterdam
If you are staying in Rotterdam as a tourist, it might be better to stay in a cheaper 3-star hotel, because you will probably spend very little time in your hotel. There are plenty of good 3-star hotels, where you can stay overnight at a good price. Recommended are Hotel Thon and the Tulip Inn hotel because these hotels have a beautiful view of the Erasmus Bridge and the Meuse. But the disadvantage is that you have to walk about fifteen minutes to get to the main shopping streets of Rotterdam. That is also possible with the metro or tram and then you are there in a few minutes. If you want a good tourist hotel that is closer to the shopping streets, Hotel Emma, Hotel Milano and Hotel Breitner are a good choice.
