Stayed in a higher level room with a view of the canal. Happy with the room and the hotel is very near to the centre of Rotterdam and public transport (trams, trains, buses). Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is relatively simple and the same every day, but there's something for everyone. The restaurant is very nice and does evening meals, though we only ate breakfast there. I would happily stay at the H2Otel again.

Nice location, novelty theme but not comfortable

Good location, nice restaurant. Terrible bed, i had to sleeep on the floor. Reception had no solution or suggestions - just dismissed me saying some people like it and they'd contact me if any other room came up. They never did. Puddle in bathroom when it rained, and mould around the caulking in bathroom.

Leuk bijzonder hotel met vriendelijk personeel. Ontbijt was prima (etagère werd aan tafel gebracht met croissant, broodje, ham, kaas, bacon, ei, jam, glaasje yoghurt met cruesli). We hebben gekozen voor een kamer met terrasje erbij, leuke toevoeging! Enige minpuntje was dat de kamer hier en daar stoffig was. Ivm stofallergie was dat wat minder prettig.

The staff was pleasant but were not accommodating. The hotel is a former river barge converted into rooms. It is gimmicky and is likely to appeal only to people that want to stay on a "boat".

This is a floating hotel! Very unique and unusual. Not a waterfront tower with a view of the water, but a small hotel IN the water. Made up of "lash barges", originally used by the American Army to send tanks and guns to Rotterdam. Make sure to read the history displayed in lobby. The location is superb- on a canal in Rotterdam, walking distance to many attractions and to transportation to others. We had a short walk to hotel from water taxi stop (we took this from cruise ship dock). Rooms are small, with portholes for windows, unless you are on upper level, very clean, with modern fittings, (a small fridge would be nice) and staff are very pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was delicious, served on tiered tea trays, a very nice touch. The area surrounding the hotel was quiet and felt safe. I would not hesitate to return on my own or recommend to friends.
