Rotterdam welcomes a new chapter in its hospitality story with the debut of Haven Hotel Rotterdam, Curio Collection by Hilton, following a large-scale renovation completed in September 2025. The hotel brings together modern comfort, lifestyle, and wellness in a landmark location on the Maas River, offering panoramic views of the city and harbor. As the first Curio Collection by Hilton in the Netherlands, the opening marks an exciting milestone for Hilton’s portfolio in Europe.
The transformation has completely refreshed the property, introducing 215 redesigned rooms and suites across five categories. Each space blends style and comfort with warm tones, soft lighting, king-size beds, and bathrooms featuring whirlpool tubs and walk-in showers. Many rooms offer views of the city, harbor, or river. For those seeking the ultimate indulgence, premium spa suites come equipped with private wellness facilities including a sauna and jacuzzi. Guests also enjoy thoughtful amenities such as complimentary Wi-Fi, espresso machines, and in-room refrigerators.
The hotel introduces two new dining concepts: LOEF Livingroom & Café, located in the lobby, provides a relaxed yet stylish setting overlooking the Maas River, perfect for coffee, light bites, and informal meetings. Calan Restaurant & Bar, set to open in October 2025, celebrates Rotterdam’s rich and diverse culinary traditions in a vibrant atmosphere with harbor views, a lively bar, and flexible seating designed to balance privacy with connection. Executive Director Michael Verhagen leads the culinary vision.
Beyond its rooms and restaurants, Haven Hotel Rotterdam offers extensive wellness facilities and flexible meeting spaces, ideal for both international business and inspiring events. Shared with the neighboring DoubleTree by Hilton Rotterdam Centre, the wellness center and conference areas provide convenience while allowing each hotel to maintain its distinct identity. Together, the two properties anchor a dynamic hospitality hub in Rotterdam’s center.
The hotel’s setting in the historic Maritime District underscores its strong connection to the city’s past. Once known as Waterstad, this area was the birthplace of Rotterdam’s development as an international port four centuries ago. Landmarks such as Het Witte Huis and historic bridges recall the district’s maritime legacy, while modern additions like the Erasmus Bridge frame the city’s ever-evolving skyline. The Haven Hotel itself traces its roots back to the original Inntel Hotel built in 1989, with the striking Maasgebouw designed in the style of a cruise ship, and the Panorama Tower added in 2006. In 2013, a five-star hotel joined the complex, and since 2023 both buildings have been part of Hilton. Their 2025 renovation now reintroduces the site as a redefined dual-branded destination.
Location & Accessibility are at the heart of the hotel’s appeal. Situated directly on the Maas River, Haven Hotel Rotterdam is within walking distance of the Maritime Museum, Markthal, Kunsthal, Depot Boijmans Van Beuningen, Nieuwe Luxor Theater, and the lively Kop van Zuid district. Leuvehaven metro station sits right next door, Rotterdam Central Station is just 10 minutes away by metro or taxi, and the Rotterdam Water Taxi stops at the hotel’s doorstep. For international travelers, Schiphol Airport can be reached in 45 minutes and Rotterdam The Hague Airport in just 30.
With its unique blend of design, history, culinary creativity, wellness, and connectivity, Haven Hotel Rotterdam, Curio Collection by Hilton, positions itself as a destination for both global travelers and locals. Whether for an inspiring meeting, a wellness escape, or a weekend exploring Rotterdam’s culture, the hotel delivers a truly distinctive hospitality experience in the heart of the city.
