It's a very interesting experience. Also, I loved the watertaxi. Could get to work very fast and not expensive. Most of the staff are nice. And the ship has many different places to spend some relaxing time.

Internet connection really bad. I went for work and was impossible to work from my room. The rooms without windows. Be careful if you are claustrophobic like me. It's a bit awkward at the beginning. Some staff were "ok". Not exactly the kind of people we are used to find in the Netherlands. Difficult to get an Uber. So install watertaxi app and book your taxis and then the rest will be amazing.

Our room was fantastic, very clean and modern. The excitement of being on the ship makes for a special stay. The bar on the middle deck is comfortable with a very reasonably priced food menu. Taking the high speed water taxi straight from the boarding deck to other parts of the city is an amazing experience.

The ship isn't as accessible as it could be, with the hotel company running paid tours instead of allowing already paying guests to see the historic and technical parts of the old ship. Especially when travelling with children it would make sense to include it in the price to make the stay even more memorable.

Its dutch maritime history, its a lovely environment to stay

I come for a number of years already, but the organisation of the staff remains a problem. They are friendly, but so disinterested and not managed well in what they do. For example waiting at the desk for 10 minutes whilst you hear them chatting 2 metres away not about work, tables uncleaned for 30 min, breakfast is served to 10.00 and at 10.00 they start hoovering the place whilst you still enjoy breakfast, etc. If the owner can change that attitude, disinterest in clients pleasure and disorganisation, SS Rotterdam may even become pleasant to stay.

30 April Everything went smoothly and easily from arriving to check in , The room was very good 😊 the ship experience, parking place available 15 euro a day , walking distance to the city is nice and interesting, lots of restaurants nearby , me and my family went to our hotel restaurant, we got the table from the captain of restaurant without problem as we didn't booked the table nice and tasty food atmosphere was beautiful the restaurant service was top top , in the room was free water ,tea ,coffee , you can get extra tea at reception without a problem (free).Did explore the inside ship 🚢 hotel,lovely stairs and ship promenade , the terase at night was nice experience , overall I would without hesitation book again in SS Rotterdam when the next time visit Rotterdam, This time was for my 9 year old sons Birthday 😊🚢

A very enjoyable and novel experience, staying on this old cruise ship. The staff were in uniform, there were pictures on the wall showing it's history. We were lucky and got a surprise upgrade, getting a cabin with portholes looking out over the water. The room was lovely with some period decor, but it was also very clean and comfortable. We'll certainly have happy memories of our stay there! The ship was a bit of a maze - we were given a map so had fun, but did still get a bit lost and confused at times.

The ship is quite a way away from shops / restaurants. When we checked in, we didn't realise we should reserve a table at the ship's restaurant. We went up to eat, only to find we needed to wait and come back 2 hours later - wouldn't be a problem if you planned ahead (and the food was good!). The ship isn't that easy to get to. There was a large car park, but we took public transport, which meant a metro then bus to get from the centre of Rotterdam. Sometimes we walked instead of taking the bus, but it wasn't too obvious where to go. We'd have loved to have a look round the rest of the ship, but that was only possible through the tour from 10 - 5, which didn't fit with our travel plans.

This place offers a unique experience of being in a real museum ship. If you have never been on a cruise ship, but have always dreamed of it, this is a great opportunity to feel like you are on a cruise without being afraid of sea motion. Be sure to take a tour of the ship and learn its history. It's very interesting and beautiful. The staff deserves special attention; the people who work there love this place. Especially thanks to everyone who conducted the excursion and told interesting moments from the history of the ship.

Very soft pillows and mattress. It's not very comfortable for the back.

Breakfast was really nice. They offered a free tour which seemed great, but unfortunately we didn't have time to try it. So we can't judge the tour itself, but it was really nice that it was offered to us. The hotel is atmospheric and really leaning into being a ship. The decor, ship models etc are really nice. Cocktails at the bar were really nice.

Our room was maybe a little dark, but it's a ship so the tiny porthole was pretty expected. It can feel a bit far off from things.

The location is very nice, Atmosphere is great on the old cruise vessel. Breakfast is good, and staff is very friendly. Enough parking space and landing dock of watertaxi is great.

The value for money during diner in the Lido restaurant was not in balance. We paid full price for ok food served by a group of apprentice workers. They were very friendly but lacking the proper skills. I.e. attendant cleaned up a table and went with the dirty plates to our table to clean our table as well. They forgot the side dishes, and manager continued to set up for breakfast while her colleagues’ were struggling.

What could be cooler than staying on a ship? This was our first stop on a European Road Trip and it did not disappoint. The room was comfortable and even had a hob! Toiletries provided were of a really high standard, the bathroom was good and I loved the port hole windows. Breakfast was lovely with a lot of choice. The open deck area was also a highlight. We made use of the water taxi service which was awesome fun and even dropped us off right along side the ship.

Cannot fault this property!

We really enjoyed our stay! The executive room we had was very nice and spacious and in a quiet area! We had a nice dinner in the club room, then went for drinks in the captain´s lounge before going to enjoy our room a bit. The next morning we enjoyed the delicious breakfast and then went for a tour to learn more about the ship and the history - would definitely recommend! The staff was very friendly and super helpful!

Nothing related to the accommodation, but we wanted to take a water taxi to the city. Unfortunately, they were full, so didn´t get a chance to do that - so make sure you book the water taxi in advance!
