Hotels Near Splash Tours BV in Rotterdam

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!

Extremely clean. Brand new establishment. Super staff. Very accommodating. Easy, enjoyable common space to sit and read a book, surf the web, have a conversation or just listen to music. Inexpensive parking close by. Fabulous layout of rooms with tiered pricing and options- from a pod to room with private bathroom. Pods have clean shared multiple sinks for washing up/brushing teeth. Clean, locked bathrooms and locked separate shower stalls with soap provided; Like you would find in an upscale gym/athletic facility. Pod rooms were the size you’d find at some NYC boutique hotels. Highly recommend-for the price point you can’t beat it. Right adjacent to trendy Witte neighborhood.

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.

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.

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.

My 2nd time to book and staying in this hotel. as good as before. Good in location, 5 min. walk to Rotterdam central station. LRT just in front of the station. Good in services, we arrival at early morning 10:00, no room available, the front desk lady can keep the luggage for us, and offer free breakfast to us. Clean and tidy room and public area. Recommend this hotel to you.

Very nice and comfortable hotels located near the historical centre, and about 20 minutes walk from the historic port of Rotterdam, for a short and perfect holiday, friendly and educated staff, excellent breakfast, Restaurants and bars can be found near the hotel to complete everything with the beautiful atmosphere of the city

Cozy family hotel. The staff are very kind and warm. There is good parking nearby, no need to pay. Breakfast is classic. The environment is also very warm and comfortable. The disadvantage is that there are too few charging plugs in the room, and the bathtub in the bathroom is very small

The hotel is relatively new, there is free parking, this is better, because the parking lot of many hotels in Europe is charged. There are supermarkets and restaurants nearby, and there is a Japanese buffet that is really good, which is the most satisfying meal we have during our stay abroad.

This hotel has a nice cosy entrance and the personel is very friendly. The room we stayed in at the third level was clean and spacy, and has a window that can be opened. There 's a mini fridge that cooled our stuff perfectly. There ś a table where you can sit at, and eat and drink. There 's also a waterkettle and coffee and teabags. A nice drawing on the wall above the beds. The beds are comfortable. The bathroom is large, too. It has a glass sliding door and a shower with thermostat valve. There is a parking beneath the hotel ($), and you can also park your car for free close in front of the hotel. We had a perfect stay for 2 nights and we love to come back sometime again. The villagecentre is about a 20 minutes walk from the hotel. There is a waterferry (for bikes and people only) that cruises every 15 minutes on the Merwede river to Dordrecht.
