I enjoyed my stay here. The location was great and close to many shops and cafes. The room was clean and worked well for my needs. The bathroom was a touch dated, however it was more than suitable. The staff were friendly and assisted me with laundry services which was absolutely clutch for only traveling with a carry on for several weeks.

For a first time trip to Rotterdam, we were very pleased with Hotel Van Walsum. The neighborhood is quiet but has restaurants and bars within easy walking distance. Everyone at the hotel was friendly and very helpful. Our room included breakfast which was very good.

The hotel is aged but the furniture and care is quite well. It was a comfortable stay. The biggest problems are floor creaks (expected) and in my room corridor light was visible from sides of the door which was not ideal.

We loved this hotel. There was a warm welcome and we had a beautiful family room with outdoor space accessible from it. The room was really well-equipped with a coffee machine that made lovely coffee, hair dryer and loads of towels. Location was fantastic with easy access to the city sights. Really recommend this hotel.

What a lovely little Rotterdam secret! This hotel is run by the third generation of family, and they pay attention…. to you. Hospitable and warm, it is clean quiet and centrally located in walking distance to everything! The smell of fresh baked croissants in the morning and their lovely breakfast are the way each day starts in this pleasant hotel. Excellent value!
