Hampshire Hotel - Savoy Rotterdam

It's a vey nice hotel but bit pricy for what you get.

When checked in I thought that things looked somewhat familiar, noteably the miniscule lifts either side of stairs when you come in. I stayed here a few years ago whilst under a different name 'Eden'. These are just about big enough to travel alone with your luggage. They have nothing on the showers though!!! I am a mere 5'8" and could barely move inside it and likewise close proximity of WC to the shower leaves little room. Room fronted the street and was noisey until quite late and balmy evening meant I needed window open for som fresh. Can't say I noticed if air con insatlled, I think not. Breakfast was bland and limited. Bar staff apathetic, when he was there! Only plus would be fairly central location and short walk to waterfront bars. I won't stay again as when on business I like to go to work having had a good wake up balst in shower not worry about banging elbows and knees on the cubicle. Enough said.

We only spent one night at the Savoy, but would have gladly spent more. The only negative was that the AC in the room didn't work. We found out the next day from the other couple that we were traveling with, that there was some manual process to turn it on. The front desk usually did it automatically, but were having technical issues. The hotel was really very nice and quite spacious by American standards and rather huge for European standards. It was very clean and everyone spoke excellent English and were very helpful. It was located just a couple of blocks awa from the major market in Rotterdam that is open on Tuesday and Sunday.

The hotel is well located, being within very easy walking distance of restaurants and the town centre. In fact, we also walked from and to the Centraal Station when arriving and departing.The Cube Houses are a few minutes away. Two niggles: there was a not very serious leak of water across the shower room floor, which we reported at the end of our stay - no problem for us, as we just mopped it up with towels. Secondly, the shower room was very small and the shower enclosure would be no good for large people. We had no other negatives to report. Reception were unfailingly helpful - allowing us to change rooms to get a double bed and looking after baggage at the start and end of our stay. The bed was comfortable. Computers were always available in the foyer at no charge.

Hotel did not looked as in pictures. Bathroom was dreadful and inconvenient

Well located comfortable hotel 10 minutes walk away from world trade centre. Quiet area with good Italian restaurant close by.

Very noisy (water, elevators, heating systems). Must replace the beds - horrible mattresses. Very very small room and bathroom.
