Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Staying at the SS Rotterdam offers a unique experience, with comfortable and modern rooms, some even featuring a hob. The breakfast is widely enjoyed for its variety, and the open deck area is a highlight for many. The water taxi service provides convenient and fun transportation to other parts of the city right from the ship; however, some guests have mentioned noise issues related to onboard events.

the standard twin room was adequate for a couple of people to stay in.
the night i stayed, there was a party, and the noise level was excessive. i didn't manage to get any sleep at all due to this, very frustrating.

I found the Executive Double Room spacious. The view overlooked the ship's front, that was great. The bathroom seemed recently refurbished, I noticed it was very clean.
The ship is a bit far from the center, planning transportation can be stressful

The free shuttle service to the metro station was convenient. i appreciated the kids game. My daughter really enjoyed finding the flags. i also found a high standard of toiletries provided in the bathroom. It was good.
Live music continued until 01:00 each night of my stay. The walls are very thin. the noise was quite disturbing!

historical cruise experience

original furniturefriendly staffwater taxi platformremote location
the executive cabin had original furniture and flair, a really unique experience. the staff was friendly, and i enjoyed the retro feel of the ship. high speed water taxis are available directly from the boarding deck for transport into the city.
I found the location somewhat remote. The hotel shop closed early, leaving few options for necessities without a long walk.
Dining

The bar on the middle deck provided a comfortable space with a reasonably priced food menu. It offered a pleasant setting for relaxation and meals. breakfast has a wide selection of options, including self-service coffee and pastries.
Facilities

the hotel includes a huge car park in front of the ship. a ferry service runs adjacent to the ship, providing access to a pedestrian tunnel. this allows walks to het park and euromast at certain times.
Location

the hotel is located at the sea and offers a very calm setting. walking to central areas like the cube houses took around 45 minutes. this journey felt safe, even at night. the immediate port area is not visually appealing.
