Hotels Near Toko Botanica in Rotterdam

Very clean room ! Location is perfect, the hotel is located between restaurants and pubs The hotel workers are very kind too

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.

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.

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.

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

Google maps will not take you to the correct location of the hotel! The address states the hotel is in Leuvehaven; however the hotel and entrance are really on Terwenaker 18 (the small peninsula just east of the main road (Schiedsedijk). You can definitely see the hotel on the peninsula as you’re driving north on the main road, but your GPS / offline Google Maps won’t take you there. Just a tip in case you’re driving to the hotel. Other than that, our room was spacious, comfortable, had its own sauna, and a great view of the river. The hotel is about a 15-20 minute walk to the Cube Houses and central market area. Overall, we’d stay there again if in Rotterdam!

The room was very nice, vibrant colors, bed was awesome, all very clean. But the big mistake they made with the renovation were the doors. They slam with a very big bang, so when anyone else on the floor enters the room, it all shakes. And then they are not isolated, you can understand discussions happening outside the room. And then, for the breakfast, dinner, lunch: only christmas music. But of the worst kind. There is no place in the region to escape this in the morning, so you have to deal with the christmas music. And for 17 euro's, it's not even worth actually what you get after your ears are in pain with ”jolly happy christmas” three times during breakfast.

The location is in the most central place, all attractions are nearby, the gentleman at the front desk is very nice, he will explain everything you want to know, and I will definitely recommend it to all friends who come to the Netherlands!

Great hotel, nice employee, fantastic service, phenomenal experience. I stayed there with a friend for a week, each day we left the hotel at the morning/noon before 11 am. Afterwards we got a cleaned room with new bathtubs and also the kitchen was refilled. The personal was cool. Would like to stay a bit longer

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.
