Hotel Port

Hotel Port Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Hotel Port in Rotterdam‘s Delfshaven district, you immediately get the sense this is a place that knows its audience. It’s a solid three-star property that doesn’t try to be something it’s not — and honestly, that’s refreshing. The building sits on Pieter de hoochweg, which might sound intimidating to pronounce, but the neighborhood has this authentic Dutch charm that most tourists never get to experience.

The Delfshaven Experience

Here’s what I love about staying in Delfshaven — you’re technically in Rotterdam, but it feels like a completely different world. This historic harbor area is where the Pilgrims actually departed for America (yeah, that’s a fun fact to drop at dinner), and the old windmill and cobblestone streets make for some incredible evening walks. The hotel’s location gets an 8.5 rating from couples, and I can see why. You’re close enough to Rotterdam’s city center when you want that urban energy, but far enough away to actually relax. The tram connections are pretty decent too, so getting around isn’t a hassle.

Your Room and Comfort

The room I stayed in was clean and functional — nothing fancy, but everything worked as it should. You know what I appreciated most? The windows actually opened properly (you’d be surprised how many hotels mess this up), and the beds were genuinely comfortable. The bathrooms are compact but well-designed, and there’s enough space to spread out your stuff without feeling cramped. It’s the kind of place where you sleep well and wake up ready to explore, which is really all you need from a three-star hotel.

Morning Fuel

Breakfast here is a proper continental buffet setup, and they do it right. Fresh bread, good coffee, and enough variety to keep you satisfied whether you’re the type who needs a full meal in the morning or just wants something light. I mean, it’s not going to win any awards, but it’s substantial and gets you ready for the day. The breakfast area has decent natural light, which makes those early mornings feel less brutal — especially during Rotterdam’s grayer months.

Why Guests Love It

The 7.6 overall rating tells the real story here — this is a dependable choice that delivers on its promises without any unpleasant surprises. Staff members are helpful without being overly formal, and there’s parking available, which anyone who’s driven in Rotterdam will tell you is worth its weight in gold. What really sets Hotel Port apart is its location in Delfshaven. You get to experience a side of Rotterdam that feels more intimate and historic, while still having easy access to all the modern city attractions. It’s particularly great for couples who want to explore together — those narrow streets and waterfront views create natural romantic moments that you just don’t get in the business district.

Hotels near me in Rotterdam deliver quick tram rides to maritime museums, art warehouses, and Delfshaven breweries.

  Good breakfast, walking distance to Euromast

• Emma from France (8/10)

  The employees were very nice.

• Margaret from Sweden (7/10)

  Location is good, staff is service-minded. Breakfast is very simple and basic. The whole hotel is old, if using the staircase, very narrow and tight, be careful. If you're are choosing the room with bathtub, yes it's big for 2 pers but deep, that means be careful when stepping out there and don't fall. In general, a cosy and simple hotel.
