Van der Valk Hotel Schiedam  

On the edge of Schiedam, about 2 km from the city center and conveniently off the A20. A short drive puts you in Rotterdam — think Erasmus Bridge and Ahoy within 15 minutes — and nearby sights include Blijdorp Zoo and Railz Miniworld.

A modern spa hotel with luxe rooms and suites, sleek décor and a rooftop vibe. Rooms are air-conditioned and fitted with minibars, espresso makers and smart TVs; bathrooms feature deep soaking tubs and rainfall showerheads. The wellness area looks out over Rotterdam and the property is sustainably built and fully gasless.

Full-service spa and sauna, indoor pool, a well-equipped fitness center and bike rentals for exploring. Rooftop Restaurant 16th and a bar set the scene for evening drinks. Onsite laundry and free self parking keep things easy, and accessible features include elevators.

Thirteen multifunctional meeting rooms and a conference hall for events, plus a 24-hour front desk. Complimentary high-speed wireless internet across the property keeps work flowing.

Two on-site restaurants, an exclusive rooftop restaurant and a coffee shop/café serve up local flavors and casual bites. Start the day with a buffet breakfast (served 6:00–10:00 AM) and unwind with cocktails in the bar/lounge.
