Our cruise company booked us in as part of a pre cruise package. Convience store 3 min walk away. Centraal station cube houses etc close. Big surprise with breakfast. Buffet breakfast was included. Holy moly! I feel like I'm been eating dog food in the USA and Canada compared to this. There are actual cooks making food vs people warming up stuff in bags. Huge selection of health foods. No rice crispies or foot loops here. Tons of different grains to add to you choice of different flavour Yougerts. Fresh made eggs and meats. Plus cold cuts cheeses 3 different breads you slice. Mind blowing. REAL white and brown sugar cubes. Can't remember when I last saw a sugar cube. Huge selection of everything. And get this a machine that on demand dispenses a perfect temperature pat of butter into a small dish. No more too cold plastic containers of butter that you can't spread or melted because you kept them in your pocket too long. Amazing. Service friendly. Beautiful. 5 stars to the buffet

Two night stay in early July 2025 prior to cruise. Great location; great bed (!); great staff;…read moregreat piece of luck to get our room at 9am after arriving from airport; great staff throughout. The restaurant is exceptional and won't break the bank. Servers were helpful and on the ball. In particular, breakfast buffet was typical for a hotel but everything was presented very well and all was tasty. Dinner on two occasions consisted of baked cod, salad, fish and chips and their cheesburger. Food was fantastic for a location like this. I recommend this hotel without any reservation. I would definitely return. The only downside: Bathtub sides are very high. If you are not agile (!!!!!) you must get a room with a shower.

Gorgeous hotel in central Rotterdam, about a 10-minute walk from the Centraal Station (which itself…read moreis an incredible architectural marvel). The James is a beautifully designed and immaculate place to stay; we loved the King bed, large shower and--on the 85-degree day we were in town--the AC. The staff was friendly and helpful and even stored our 10+ pounds of cheese (yes, we have a problem) in the hotel's main fridge because our in-room mini fridge couldn't keep the cheese cool enough. We also enjoyed the mini gym, the gorgeous lounge (pic attached) and the convenient location. Another bonus: there are just five to six rooms per floor, so you don't have people coming and going at all hours, which meant a quiet, restful sleep.

Easy to get around Price is cheaper than the other major chains Cons: Rooms are smaller than the other two chains in the area (Marriott and Hilton) If you have status at Marriott, you get access to their lounge, which gives you free alcohol and snacks at night and free breakfast in the morning. Place is good and clean and I recommend this place if you have no status with the other two chains. But if you do have status, the other two chains' amenities are nicer.

Very clean and modern rooms, comfortable and just enough space. My room was on the fourth floor and there isn't a view. Check in was a breeze and the staff is very welcoming and efficient, even was able to get me a room a few hours early. No lunch or dinner options but there is a bar, snacks and drinks are a bit overpriced but convenient after being in meetings all day it's nice to just grab something quick. Breakfast is included.

They provided a bath bomb for the bath too! Spacious room and huge bathroom. It was clean and when we walked in, there were robes and slippers and mints on the bed to welcome us.

The room was large, the bed was comfortable and the bathroom was nice (it had a whirlpool tub, walk-in shower and mirror TV). We did not dine in the restaurant but we did visit the bar for drinks and had a fun time. The hotel is located on the river Maas so it was beautiful seeing the views coming down the elevator each morning. It is also in a really good location to walk to places and to access public transit or a water taxi.

I also really enjoyed the Glasgow and Amsterdam locations, Shoreditch has been the only one I didn't like (lounges too small for the number of guests and inattentive staff). There's a lovely friendly atmosphere at this location, thanks to the predominantly female staff. The lounges are spacious and there's plenty of desk space for working. Beds are super comfy, the bar and canteen are pleasant (thanks to the staff) in the evening and the location couldn't be better.

De inrichting van het restaurant zag en mooi uit en de banken waren  comfortabel. De radio stond vrij luid en de top 40 hits waren niet bepaald bevorderd voor de sfeer. Nadat het personeel verzocht werd om dit zachter te zetten werd hier vriendelijk op gereageerd en rekening mee gehouden. Het eten zelf was niet geweldig. De zalwrapes hadden stukjes avocado die duidelijk nog niet rijp waren en de sandwish had wat rijker gevuld mogen zijn. De rest van het eten was voldoende, maar niet bijzonder lekker.
