5 Star
Hilton Rotterdam has been highlighted frequently as a five-star hotel, yet many guests have expressed disappointment in various aspects of the stay that fell short of their expectations for such a high rating. The breakfast, while occasionally noted as good or even spectacular, was mostly described as modest, lacking in variety and not living up to the standards one might expect from a five-star establishment.

The overall quality of service and cleanliness also garnered criticism. Numerous reviews mentioned that housekeeping could be more diligent with some saying that the general cleanliness was not up to the mark for a five-star hotel. Issues with delayed billing and front desk errors further marred the experience for some visitors.

Additionally, many guests felt that the hotel was lacking in facilities, particularly noting the absence of a swimming pool, which is often a staple in luxury accommodations. The luxurious feel was limited to certain areas such as the check-in desk and the elevators but did not extend to the overall stay experience.

Despite the convenient location and occasional compliments on the complimentary breakfast, the consensus among many reviewers is that Hilton Rotterdam falls closer to a four-star or even three-star standard. The high prices and perceived lack of luxury have led to a general feeling that this hotel does not merit its five-star label.
