The verdict

The DoubleTree Centre is seventh, and its indoor pool is what lifts it above the hotels behind it. This was the Inntel by the Leuvehaven, renamed by Hilton, and our walking route over the Erasmus Bridge to Cruise Terminal Rotterdam is about 0.7 miles (1.2 km) — roughly 16 minutes.

That's a fine walk without luggage and a long one with it. A taxi covers it in a few minutes, and the metro from Leuvehaven is two stops.

Breakfast is a buffet "available for a fee", per Hilton, with no price, and parking is €37.00 (about US$40) a day self-park or €45.00 (about US$50) valet. Neither is a cruise rate, and the port's €19 (about US$20) lot at the ss Rotterdam is cheaper for a week.

Book it if the pool and Hilton points matter, and price breakfast before you assume it.

Book it if

  • You want an indoor pool
  • You collect Hilton points
  • You don't mind walking the Erasmus Bridge

Look elsewhere if

  • You want breakfast priced or included.
  • You're parking for a week.
  • You want the shortest possible walk.

Which terminal

Cruise Terminal Rotterdam

Every sea-cruise ship on the port's schedule that we read uses Cruise Terminal Rotterdam on the Wilhelminapier, and DoubleTree Centre is about 0.7 miles on foot, roughly 16 minutes, by our routing. An MSC booking that says "Rotterdam (Amsterdam)" means this terminal too; the Rotterdam cruise guide covers it.

FAQ

DoubleTree Centre FAQ

Is the DoubleTree Rotterdam Centre the old Inntel?

Yes. Business Traveller's report on Hilton's 2023 deal says it was "previously trading as Inntel Hotels Rotterdam Centre"; Hilton's own release gives the new name and 265 rooms, not the old one.

Does the DoubleTree Rotterdam Centre have a pool?

Yes — an indoor pool, a gym and spa facilities, per Hilton.

How much is parking at the DoubleTree Rotterdam Centre?

€37.00 a day to self-park or €45.00 for valet, secured and covered, per Hilton. Hilton doesn't say the rate covers a cruise week.

Can I walk from the DoubleTree Centre to the cruise ship?

Yes, over the Erasmus Bridge — about 0.7 miles by our routing, roughly 16 minutes. With heavy bags, a taxi is a few minutes.

Does the DoubleTree Rotterdam Centre allow pets?

Pets up to 23 kg, for a €45 non-refundable fee, per Hilton. That's a fee, not a deposit.

Booking the cruise too?
