Schijndel Cheap Vacations

Excellent location. Easy walking distance from most attractions in the city centre and across the road from a metro station, which goes straight to Rotterdam Central Station (about 15 minute walk) if you have luggage. The metro also goes to The Hague. The social area on the ground floor is welcoming and a nice place to sit in an evening. The food was delicious and competitively priced. Two Albert Hein Supermarkets within a 5 minute walk of the hotel that are well stocked. Other places like Delft are also only a short train journey away. We were 2 adults and 2 older teens sharing a room for 4 with a kitchenette. Kitchenette was fine for cooking basic meals. The main bed was comfortable. The bed settee not as much. The bathroom layout was a little unconventional for us, with the shower being frosted glass off the main room. My teens were reluctant to use the shower when we were all in the room. Other than that it’s a great place to stay.

I stayed in the hotel for 2 nights, attracted by the great location. The lobby space is nice and the member of staff I spoke to seemed pleasant when I first checked in. Unfortunately I ended up having a bad experience. I woke from my first night of sleep on a few occasions with an itchy rash on my hand, and did not think too much about it at the time.. That was until later in the day when I began to notice more rashes. My. EdI was out from 8am - 1pm and had hoped that the house keeping would provide new bedding and towels. I left the card on the door as instructed but unfortunately nothing was replaced. My second night was much worse. I woke up many times and as I type this I have rashes all over my hands, arms and even a few on my neck. I very rarely complain or write negative reviews. I hoped to raise the issues with a member of staff when checking out this morning but was unable to as there was nobody available and I had a train to catch. I’m unsure if there is a cleanliness problem but I was disappointed with my stay. I found the size of the room to be slightly small, particularly the bathroom, where there was little space to shower.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Doubletree by Hilton hotel in Rotterdam. The hotel is in an excellent location for both attractions and restaurants and the room was very comfortable. We removed a star because reception seemed short staffed when we needed to them (eg to get keys for the spa) resulting in lengthy waits. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable when it was our turn.

Room was clean and very funky. Loved the big bath . Breakfast was terrific , staff very helpful.

We picked this hotel because the listing said there was a pool, but it was under construction when we got there. Had we known that we would have chosen another hotel. There’s not AC and it was hot! The WiFi was terrible to the point we could not even use it much if the time. I would not recommend this hotel.
