The room was notably larger than other mid-range European hotels we’ve stayed in—really spacious and well-designed, with plenty of natural light. Parking was a big plus: ample spaces available and super convenient, which made the trip stress-free for those driving. While the daily rate of €37.50 is on the higher side, it’s justified by the excellent location, modern amenities, and overall quality. Being just a short walk or quick transit ride away from major attractions made exploring Rotterdam effortless.

Bilderberg Parkhotel Rotterdam
The hotel offers great value with its convenient parking—just drive up to the entrance on the left, and the gate opens automatically. At €30 per night, it's significantly cheaper than nearby options. However, if you arrive late, parking spots might be limited, so it's best to check in early. The only minor inconvenience is that the elevator is located on the left wing, requiring a short walk with luggage upon arrival. Despite this small detail, the overall experience was excellent. The atmosphere is peaceful, the staff are friendly, and the location is ideal for exploring Rotterdam. A solid choice for travelers seeking comfort and convenience.

The hotel offers underground parking for €25 per day, which is reasonable considering the convenience, especially if you're arriving by car. Breakfast was a highlight—abundant, varied, and delicious, giving me a great start to each day. The room itself faces the hallway, so there's a bit of noise, but it wasn't disruptive during my one-night stay. I appreciated the compact steam room—it’s not gender-separated, but still functional and refreshing. One small but very useful touch: USB charging ports in the room, which made keeping devices powered up super easy. Despite minor drawbacks, the value for money is strong, and I’d definitely consider staying here again on my next visit to Rotterdam.
