Disappointing Stay in Vlaardingen

I booked into this Hotel for 1 night only, as I was in Transit.
On Check in, I'd forgotten that I had the remains of a Chilli Con Carne & rice in my luggage, that I'd knocked up at my previous apartment. The chef of the Hotel kindly reheated it for me, however when I ordered a pint of Moretti from the Hotel Bar, I was quite astounded to be charged an eye watering 9.25 Euros for the pint!
On check out I was very surprised to be charged 7.50 for car parking for the previous night. It's common place for large Hotels both in the Netherlands & the UK to charge for parking, Vlaardingen however is a Rotterdam suburb & it's direct competitor in the same price range the nearby Bastion Hotel certainly doesn't charge for parking, so for that reason, I don't plan on using the Hotel again in the future unless everywhere else i know in Vlaardingen is full.

Rip off Hiden parking charge

We were charged 7.50 per day to park. The cost is hidden in the smallest print you can imagine.
After complaining we were eventually refunded.
Charges should be clear and visible at the time of booking, not sprung on you when you check in.
We have parked free of charge at this hotel many times previously.
We will never stay there again.

Strong sewer smell in the bathroom the entire time, also met with a bug traveling across the bathroom floor. Toilet paper is rough. Desk surface, info brochure and window sill had dark crumbs, either cookie crumbs or dead ants, couldn’t tell for sure. Restaurant ran out of pork schnitzel, so they offered chicken instead (not on the menu), which I appreciated, but then they poured BBQ sauce all over it without asking (the pork schnitzel would have been either with pepper or mushroom sauce). Overall, disappointing from an Ibis hotel, I had better experiences at other Ibis hotels.

The elevator was broken for the first 2 days of my stay, 5 flights with luggage!
There is a McDonalds and Texaco next to the hotel, but not much else. If you have a car, no worries easy access to main highway, but if you are relying on public transporation, you might want to keep looking. There is a bus stop in a 3 minute walk, pick up / drop off twice an hour between 8 and 10 and again between 3 and 5. The rest of the day up once an hour and stops at 7pm. The next closest bus stop is over 1 KM away. Website says laundry facilities available, but this doesn't mean you have access to a washer and dryer. They will do laundry for you, which can be expensive, I believe it was 8 euros for one t-shirt.

Tired and standardised

Where to start.

I know it’s not Mac Donald’s but the receptionist greeted me with a scowl more than a smile and seemed to be annoyed that I had checked in online via the email the hotel sent me.
The lobby is unchanged in the last 10 years
The room was exactly as expected but the shower head had obviously been replaced in the bathroom and it didn’t fit into the holder on the rail meaning it was difficult to shower as one hand was needed to hold the shower head.
Checkout was just as unfriendly as checkin I was made to feel that I was an inconvenience for asking for a receipt.

Overall it was expensive for a very average stay.

Great hotel, shame about the parking barriers

Have used this hotel several times, the staff are always very friendly and helpful. The rooms are perfect for someone who is only after a bed for the night, very comfortable.
It is a shame this hotel now has a parking charge, which lead to waits to enter/exit through the barrier, which appears to be controlled from the front desk (and you have to wait for them to see you on the camera).

This is a lovely hotel - particularly the breakfasts, which are superb. It's a perfect base to visit Delft, Gouda and the Tulip Fields.

But...

We stayed over a weekend and decided to eat in the hotel on the Saturday night. On previous nights, we'd seen people eating tasty looking burgers. But, apparently, at the weekend they have a VERY limited menu, although there's nothing in the hotel to tell you that. So, the menu we were offered had no starters, just three main course choices and one dessert. By this time, we'd had a couple of drinks, so couldn't drive anywhere else (and you need to drive because it's a long way out of Rotterdam) and we didn't fancy the McDonalds next door, so we made our choices. But the food was decidedly average - more like a motorway services than a hotel restaurant.

To be fair, when we complained, the staff were very helpful and, in the end, they reimbursed us for one of the meals and said if we stay there again, they'll offer a meal on the house. But it would have been nice to know about the lack of choice beforehand.

Great staff, tricky location.

The hotel was warm, pretty clean and staff were very friendly and most helpful. Location is tricky if you don't have your own transport. Local bus only runs every half an hour and less on weekends. Its a 25 minute bus ride to the best station. Food was good and reasonably priced although breakfast was expensive at 15 E. Games room is poor and needs updating.

Great rooms, very clean and fresh, comfortable

We visited a lot of hotels whilst touring on our motorcycle and i can highly recommend this Ibis Hotel. The location is right off the motorway, 15-20 mins into Rotterdam, 1hr from Amsterdam easy road to drive to.
Bicycle hire was good fun on the local tracks around the river, but too far and on the road to get to Rotterdam as advised! Rooms were had a new feel, very fresh and a good size, bathroom was also very good. No english TV, only real fault, Air con was good and needed as very hot when we were there.
You will have an excellent stay here, unllike many of the hotels in Europe we stayed in!
A consideration may be it is not close enough to walk or cycle to into the city you will need a vehicle.
Macdonalds is next door, which is very handy, however I was concerned about my motorcycle on Saturday night when it enticed the young drivers to congregated the area, but all was fine in ther morning.
So parking is on site and they have cctv, but people/bikes can wander in out freely, barriers only prevent cars. Lovely lounge area, where basic food was available and breakfast but we did not eat here.
No tea or coffee facilites in room was a dissapointment but seemed to be lacking throughout our trip around Europe. Excellent Wifi all around Hotel

Good, functional hotel for Rotterdam if driving

This Ibis is a good choice if you're travelling by car- just off the motorway about 10 mins out of central Rotterdam, ample free parking and a petrol station and Mcdonalds next door. There is a Lidl supermarket and other shops not far away in Vlaardingen.
Staff were very friendly, sadly my Dutch is useless but they spoke perfect English. Price was good and the hotel was in good condition, looking recently refurbished. Having been in a budget Ibis for the previous 2 nights this felt like luxury! Nice quiet room on the top floor looking towards the river, and cold air-conditioning, very welcome on the day we were there.

price, room and location.....ok

I was here during Easter weekend with few friends, so we booked 2 rooms for 4 pax. Upon check-in, we just realised that one of the room was meant for handicapped. The interior of the room was designed to cater for disabled person, so it was not so convenient for my friends who need to stay in the room. When we reported this to receptionist, the employee said that they are fully booked. Since I paid the 2 rooms in advance, they also said I cannot get price reduction for this inconvenience.
Since it is already late at night and we were dead tired, the hotel employee offered free breakfast for 4 of us as compromise, which we accepted.
Though the compromise is a good solution to offer, I would suggest that the room reservation could have been more careful, or at least, the receptionist should have informed us beforehand. Due to this incident, I didn't give full score.
Since we drove, I couldn't comment on the ease of getting public transportation. But McDonalds is just next to the hotel.

Perfectly Reasonable

One thing we can say about Ibis hotels, is that they are always perfectly reasonable and good value for money. The rooms are clean and tidy and the staff always happy to help, and the location is always reasonable, and certainly for the purposes of a business trip, you really could not expect any more, but they do not go the extra measure to make us really want to go back in our leisure time.

Good hotel for a short breqk

We stay regularly in this hotel because it is near to family that we visit in Holland. While the rooms are on the small side they are clean and comortable - tho we would recommend taking your own pillows if you like them soft! We always find a deal that includes breakfast as this is charged at 14 euros. There is a good selection at the buffet. The staff are friendly and accomodating.

Disappointing

Firstly, the included breakfast that we chose upon making the booking was refused to us when we checked in, despite us presenting the booking reference with it clearly stating 'breakfast included'.

Secondly, food service in the restaurant was very poor, there appeared not to be enough staff, and our requests for additional drinks at the end of the meal were ignored or forgotten several times.

Finally, our €45.00 food bill from the first night somehow had become a €54 bill when we checked out, although this was only discovered upon checking the receipts a couple of hours (and some distance) later.

In fairness, the standard of the food was reasonably good.

The room itself was fine, but it would benefit from hot drinks facilities within the room.

We visit this area of Rotterdam regularly to see relatives. The Ibis is a well maintained chain hotel with smallish but well equipped rooms. Try and get a deal that includes breakfast as this is very expensive if you pay on the day. There is a bar and restaurant if you need them. I would recommend taking own pillows!
