Lovely quirky and stylish hotel within the old post office building, based in a residential but also very central location. My only 'criticism':
- the bar area could be more inviting/ better staffed (seemed to close earlier, a vacuum cleaner was somehow always about, didn't really lend itself to sit)
- there are no phones in the room, which might be the new thing to do; and whilst there was a contact number/ chat option to contact staff online, I don't think messages are monitored that well.

We really enjoyed our stay at Supernova, the common areas and room are really nicely designed, and we quite liked the labyrinth of stairs to get to and from our room! (The lift was being fixed when we stayed- good to know if you have any accessibility issues)
The hotel was really quiet, a great place to relax, sleep and feel properly rested. Great rain shower, and products from the hotels own Superette range. The only little annoying thing was the hairdryer (all the ones we had in Rotterdam/Amsterdam were safety ones you have to keep pressing on to use- would bring my own next time) would definitely stay here again. It’s in an interesting area, lots of street art and in easy walking or transport distance to the main station and the rest of Rotterdams sights.
They also have breakfast available and a nice little lounge area with books in the lobby area, along with a shop for some essentials/snacks.

the room was really big! bigger then i was anticipating actually, and it was nice and clean. the staff on reception were really helpful when i had questions or asked for more tea and sugar. i didn't have breakfast there but i did see other people eating and it did look good. the bed was a little on the firm side for my personal tastes, but that was ok.

Amazing space to stay off the beaten path.
Lovely neighborhood.
Room was just as advertised, maybe even better. The only few draw backs were that there was an amazing backyard but you couldn’t smoke in it so you needed to walk through the lobby each time you wanted to, which was fine due to their being adequate space in front which wasn’t far, so it never felt like you were being put out.
Also the roomcleaners didn’t come around quick enough when we would step out and they didn’t offer general amenities like toothbrush, paste, and shower gel although there was plenty of shampoo.
Luckily the area has anything you would need in a jiffy should you have forgotten it.
Needless to say I would completely stay again because it was beyond convenient getting back and forth to Amsterdam and surrounding countries throughout the weeks via Rotterdam Central which is pretty close.
As another plus there is an amazing ice cream shop not too far from the location as well, which made for an amazing night snack
Would recommend 9/10

Good for a night or two, but not the cleanest rooms. The shower had a squeegee/mop in it to clean the floor. Lobby and restaurant area smell like sewage.

Property was very clean and modern but with a boutique feel.
The staff were so helpful.
Bar area was nice. We didn't have breakfast but it looked acceptable but nothing special.

The room was clean and very comfortable with a very sweet balcony. The only downside was the AC was very bad and it was 28 degrees when there so the room was very hot to sleep at night.
The bikes were very useful and we used them for 3 days to get around.

I would recommend and stay here again

Super Supernova

Supernova is in a great location: quiet but with lots of options to eat out nearby, and walking distance to the central area. To a person, staff members were lovely: friendly and accommodating. The hotel’s design made the stay feel like a special treat. And Rotterdam itself was a special place, having a calm, relaxed feel but a great city vibe - lots to do and lots to see.

The sophisticated bunk bed design is really unique, our kids loved it. Beds were also big and extremely comfy. The bathroom is stylish but not really practical as the floor tiles get pretty slippery when wet.

Room was spacious and everyone had space to hang out. Patio was beautiful but not well maintained. Deck chairs were dirty and covered with grime. It is okay for us as we did not hang out there due to the hot summer weather.

Staff were friendly, sincere and warm. It was a nice touch to be welcomed by record music playing in the room, as well as a handwritten note.

This hotel is quirky, but in a nice way. It is an old property in a nice neighborhood that has been renovated to a high standard. If you are not on the ground floor, the stairs are steep with narrow treads. There is small elevator. Not sure about other upper floor rooms but ours, 101, had a large deck to step out into with a small table and two chairs. It gave a pleasant view onto an adjacent plaza. Some ground floor rooms have a small green space out side. Coffee and tea in the room. TV only seems to have streaming. A mainly cold breakfast is available for a charge but they will do some fried or scrambled eggs on request. At the moment, only a limited selection of pizzas are available albeit very good quality ones. There are a number of good restaurants in the neighborhood within a 5 to 10 minute walk. The young lady who checked us in was charming and looked after all our needs, including serving us drinks and making pizza while running the front desk. The morning staff were equally as good. We ordered a van to take six of us plus luggage to the cruise terminal through the hotel. Cost was a very reasonable 34 euros.

Rotterdam Boutique Hotel

We really liked the Supernova Hotel, which is a quirky boutique hotel in a nice location. Rotterdam is quite manageable, so the location of this hotel was very good. We had booked a family room, which included a loft with an additional queen bed. This was exactly as depicted in the room description.

There was a very nice sitting area in the room, and a door out to a garden area that we really liked. It is a quiet property, at least when we were there, and the front desk was very helpful. You can easily walk everywhere. Overall, we really enjoyed this hotel and would highly recommend it.

Overall, great stay!

The hotel is a stylish boutique. It was easy to find and located on a quiet street. It is nearby public transit and a short walk to terrific restaurants. Check-in was fast and friendly. The room was clean and had nice amenities.

The biggest issue occured on a Sunday afternoon. Despite extending the stay and reconfirming with front desk that we did not want to be disturbed to sleep in, there were several knocks on the door from staff. When I opened the door, the attitude of the front desk staff was icy, \"Did you know check-out is at noon?\" And I said, \"Yes, and we extended our stay.\" She responded with a scowl, \"When?\" And I said Friday (also I had sent a message to the hotel a month prior). I could not fall back asleep after a very tiring day and was upset at the unpleasant and unprofessional exchange and poor attitude of this woman. Would I recommend the stay? Perhaps. I'm undecided whether I would want to return next year.

Gem of a hotel. Room was large and well designed with a quiet back garden. Staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. If NOTK is taking over the kitchen for the evening when you are there do not hesitate to book a dinner with them. Truly excellent wine and food. Would stay here (and eat at NOTK) every time I visit Rotterdam.

Staff were great and having free bikes was perfect and we had a nice trip to delft. There are lots of small steps in unit - which was fine for us. Just be aware. An upbeat vibe to the hotel and check out at noon worked well.

Cool and slightly edgy hotel in Rotterdam

This is a nicely styled, quirky hotel slightly out of the tourist areas. My room was excellent with plenty of room for my bicycle, but there is an outdoor storage shed I also used. The staff was very nice and helpful when they could be. Downside was that the hotel does not provide satellite/cable TV, but does provide access to stream from your mobile. This is awkward for most Americans. Excellent value.
