Chaam Vacations from ￥283,600

Pros: Excellent Location: Just a 5-minute walk from Rotterdam Centraal Station — very convenient for travelers. Unique Common Area Design: The lobby and shared spaces have a creative, stylish design that stands out and adds character. Cons: No Elevator & No Assistance with Luggage: There is no elevator, and no staff were available to help with luggage. This could be difficult for guests with large suitcases or mobility concerns. Plumbing Noise Issues: There was a loud noise in my room every time someone flushed a toilet, possibly due to piping problems. This was especially disruptive at night. Breakfast Not Worth the Price: I didn’t purchase the €15 buffet breakfast, but I saw what was offered — and honestly, it didn’t look like it was worth even €10. I’d recommend skipping it and finding better options nearby. Unexpected Extra Tax: Although I paid CAD $24 for taxes and fees through Expedia, the hotel charged me an additional €9 (for two nights) as a separate city tax. I tried to dispute this with Expedia, but was told that the $24 did not include local city taxes. I was not happy with the explanation and want to warn others booking through Expedia — be aware that extra charges may apply upon arrival, even if it seems like all taxes are included upfront.

We loved the James Hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the room was wonderful. The bed was incredibly comfortable, allowing for a good night’s sleep. Would definitely stay there again.

The room is small and clean. It has limited space. The only thing that wasn’t good was the drains, the water overflows in the shower and the toilet sink. Check in was unusually and the hotel is missing a washer and a dryer which would have been nice. The location of the hotel is great.

Excellent hotel. Fun, hip. Right across from cruise terminal. Excellent restaurant hall downstairs.
