Fabulous ship to stay on

The ship is amazing, so beautiful and a real history lesson in 1950s glamour. I was on a work conference and the facilities were great as were the lunches and dinners. Really interesting and great place to stay.

It’s a decommissioned cruise ship, so its a fun and unique place to stay. The location is not good due it being located on a mile long peninsula. Staff was helpful and friendly enough with the exception of the bar staff during the day. We waited at a bar side table 30 minutes and were not even acknowledged, so we went and sat at the bar and left after 10 minutes since it was apparent we were not getting served. The food in the restaurant upstairs was very good and well priced. Transportation is very difficult from here since no Uber or taxis want to go this far out of the way to get you.

There is no way a review can describe a stay on the ss Rotterdam, you must visit in person, whether a day tour or preferably overnight stay. I first must truly commend the front desk/reception staff for being extremely attentive, professional and beyond helpful. During our 2 night stay, almost every reception staff member went above and beyond, from room-upgrade, to quickly calling a cab, and to easily address special requests and billing. Even the gift shop attendant was great. But, the biggest thanks must go to a wonderful security member (K), who gladly and enthusiastically helped my parents recreate a honeymoon photo from their Rotterdam cruise 50 years ago. Having this memory being recreated was simply priceless for them and we are all deeply grateful as it wouldn't have happened without this member's help. Besides first class staff, this ship is amazingly preserved in time. After trekking through France for a week, it was like taking a 2 day cruise to know where to unwind. The Lido served a fantastic breakfast and dinner. Captain's Lounge was perfect for coffee/drinks with friends. The rooms are not only spacious, but a reminder of how cruising/crossings used to be, all completely well appointed. Outdoor deck spaces are large & spacious with amazing views. For a comparable price of a boring chain-box hotel room, there is no comparison. And for those, like us, who were looking for the nostalgia of a bygone era and and an experience like no other, a stay is a simple must!

It was wonderful to see the ship and stay there, a unique hotel experience. The cabin was comfortable and clean, some areas of the ship looked to need some attention/maintenance. We were hoping to be able to access more areas of the ship, but that was only possible through booking a tour, which our time did not allow. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

This is a unique experience staying on a retro steam liner/cruise ship. The rooms are retro but upgraded. The only down side is that most of the ship is not part of the hotel and you must buy tickets in order to see the best rooms. There is a small discount if you are staying the night, but bake that into the price.

Very helpful staff friendly and chatty and language was not an issue thankfully as I don't speak Dutch Restaurant food was excellent plenty of choices. Breakfast hot food, well could have a little bit warmer but that was the only thing I will criticise, Beds were big and very comfy Bathroom was huge with soft fluffy towels and plenty of toiletries
