Sleep on the water: Rotterdam hotels
Rotterdam’s charm derives from its position on the river De Maas – here are couple of hotels which will let you spend your whole stay on the water.
Hotel New York
Situated in the beautiful former head office of the Holland America Line, Hotel New York boasts 72 rooms (including two accessible by spiral staircase) all with stunning river views, as well as an oyster bar, barbershop and waterside terrace.
