Maashotel Rotterdam Centre

Maashotel Rotterdam Centre Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Maashotel Rotterdam Centre on Leuvehaven, you immediately get that “I’m in the right spot” feeling. This four-star property sits right in the heart of Rotterdam‘s city center, and honestly, the location couldn’t be better — couples especially seem to get this, rating it a solid 9.1. The building itself has that modern Dutch aesthetic that Rotterdam does so well, clean lines without being sterile.

The Perfect Home Base

What I love about this spot is how it puts you right in the thick of things without the chaos. You’re literally steps from the Oude Haven (Old Harbor) and all those iconic cube houses that everyone wants to see. The Maritime Museum is practically next door, and you can walk to the Markthal in about ten minutes — which, trust me, you’ll want to do at least once for those incredible food stalls under that massive art ceiling. The fact that so many guests come back here tells you something about how well they’ve figured out the balance between accessibility and comfort.

Your Room Experience

The room I stayed in was exactly what you’d expect from a solid four-star in Rotterdam — thoughtfully designed without trying too hard. The windows are large enough to actually let in some of that precious Dutch daylight, and the beds are properly comfortable (which matters more than you think after a day of walking around the city). There’s enough space to spread out your stuff without feeling cramped, and the bathroom is modern and functional. Nothing groundbreaking, but everything works exactly as it should.

Morning Fuel

Breakfast here is actually pretty impressive — they’ve got the whole spread covered with continental options, plus vegetarian and gluten-free choices that don’t feel like afterthoughts. The buffet setup works well, but what I really appreciated was the breakfast-to-go option. Rotterdam is one of those cities where you want to get out early and explore, so being able to grab something decent and head out to catch the morning light on the Erasmus Bridge is perfect. The coffee is solid too, which — let’s be honest — can make or break your entire day.

Why Guests Love It

Look, there are fancier places in Rotterdam, but this hotel gets the fundamentals right in a way that keeps people coming back. The location score of 9.1 isn’t just a number — it reflects how easy it makes everything else about your trip. You can walk to most of the major sights, there are great restaurant options within a few blocks, and the public transport connections are excellent when you want to venture further out. It’s the kind of place that doesn’t get in the way of your Rotterdam experience but actually enhances it, which is exactly what you want from a city hotel.
