The Usual Rotterdam

Art Hotel Rotterdam
Great location, plenty of food options around, near to metro stop. Carpark in hotel, although it is quite tight space. Our daughter has a separate section for her sibgle bed with tv , which she loved.

Bilderberg Parkhotel Rotterdam
This hotel was a perfect choice--centered in the middle of Rotterdam. The staff was friendly and helpful. The bar/dining area was bright and the food was excellent. It was easy to extend my stay when my circumstances changed. I would stay here again.
