Located on the Wilhelmina Pier in the building 'De Rotterdam' with views of the river Maas and the city skyline, nhow Rotterdam offers rooms with free Wi-Fi. This modern design hotel by Rem Koolhaas/OMA also features a terrace on the seventh floor and a fitness centre.

A rather quirky hotel right in the center of Rotterdam near the Erasmus bridge. I loved the breakfast; tons of options including eggs, cheeses, pastries, juices, coffees, yoghurt, oats, fruit etc all freshly prepared. Great little perks like 24/7 "supermarket" in the lobby and the drink vouchers for skipping housekeeping. I was attending a conference and having the metro 1 minute away was extremely convenient. Air conditioner helped with sleeping at night since it was August. The terrace was also an added bonus at the end of the day, though it gets very busy on weekends.
