Apartment Heart of Rotterdam Overview
You know what struck me first about Apartment Heart of Rotterdam? The name actually delivers on its promise – you’re genuinely in the thick of everything here. I mean, step outside and you’re immediately surrounded by that distinctive Rotterdam energy, where glass towers mix with converted warehouses and there’s always something happening on the street level. It’s one of those three-star places that doesn’t try to be fancy, but honestly, that works in its favor because the focus is clearly on location and practicality rather than marble lobbies.
The apartment setup is pretty solid – I appreciated having actual space to spread out instead of being cramped into a typical hotel box. The kitchen situation is basic but functional, which came in handy since Rotterdam has this amazing food scene you’ll want to explore, and sometimes you just want to grab fresh stuff from the local markets and have a quiet meal in. What I really liked was how the place feels more like staying in a friend’s apartment than a sterile hotel room. The furnishings are modern without being cold, and there’s enough storage that you’re not living out of a suitcase the whole time.
Location-wise, you’re walking distance to the main shopping areas and the harbor district, but it’s not so central that you’re dealing with constant street noise – well, except on weekend nights, but that’s Rotterdam for you. I found myself actually enjoying the morning sounds of the city waking up rather than feeling annoyed by them. The whole area has that lived-in neighborhood feel where you’ve got local cafes mixed in with the tourist spots, so you get a real sense of what daily life is like here instead of just seeing the postcard version.
Honestly, with an 8.2 rating, this place has figured out what matters most to travelers who want to experience Rotterdam rather than just pass through it. It’s not going to wow you with luxury touches, but it gives you a comfortable base and puts you right where you want to be. If you’re the type who spends most of your time out exploring anyway, this is exactly the kind of spot that lets you live like a temporary local rather than a tourist.

The apartment was in a great location, well equipped, clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed and Daniel was a hugely kind, friendly and generous host. We had a wonderful time and would stay again in a heartbeat!
Rodel from Italy (9/10)
The location is very accessible to central station
Wonga from Netherlands (9/10)
The property was extremely neat and clean which was very pleasant. It held space well for 3 people but would be suitable for 4 or even 5 people. The location was perfect and takes no time to move around any part of the city. Daniel also was an exceptional host and a very nice person, would recommend 5/5 times!
