Living Room Apartments Overview
Living Room Apartments caught me off guard in the best way possible – I mean, when you’re wandering through the Delfshaven district looking for your accommodation, you’re not exactly expecting to stumble upon something that feels more like a friend’s cool apartment than a typical hotel. This three-star spot sits right on Mathenesserlaan, and honestly, the location took me a minute to appreciate until I realized how perfectly positioned it actually is.
The thing about staying here is that you get this genuine slice of Rotterdam life without the tourist bubble feeling. Delfshaven itself has this fascinating split personality – it’s got these historic bits (the old harbor area is actually where the Pilgrims departed for America, which is kind of wild when you think about it) mixed with everyday Dutch residential life. From the apartments, you can easily walk to the historic harbor in about ten minutes, but you’re also close enough to hop on public transport into Rotterdam’s city center when you want that urban energy. The tram connections are actually pretty solid from this area, though I’d recommend getting a day pass if you’re planning to explore.
What really works about Living Room Apartments is that they’ve nailed that apartment-style setup – you get proper kitchen facilities, which is honestly a game-changer when you’re staying somewhere for more than a couple nights. I found myself picking up groceries at the local Albert Heijn (there’s one within walking distance) and actually cooking breakfast instead of hunting for overpriced hotel food. The rooms have this clean, minimalist Dutch aesthetic without being sterile, and the beds are surprisingly comfortable for a three-star place. You know what impressed me most though? The little details – good wifi that actually works throughout the space, enough power outlets where you need them, and windows that properly block out street noise. Mathenesserlaan can get a bit busy during rush hours, but inside you’d hardly know it. The check-in process was refreshingly straightforward too – none of that awkward hovering around a fancy lobby, just practical and efficient. Sure, you’re not getting marble bathrooms or a concierge who knows your name, but for the price point and the authentic neighborhood vibe, it’s exactly what I’d book again if I was back in Rotterdam for work or just exploring the city properly.
Hotels in Rotterdam offer visitors the opportunity to stay in the heart of the Netherlands’ most modern city, with easy access to bustling harbors, vibrant cultural scene, and renowned attractions like Euromast tower.
