Sleeping in the Cube Houses

The higgledy-piggledy art of Piet Blom has been the definitive eye catcher of the city. Also discover the other highlights of the city; the Market Hall and the Old Harbour are just around the corner.
In the hostel
Stayokay Rotterdam is located right in the center near Blaak train station. In the bar you can have a delicious drink and meet other travelers. In the restaurant you can enjoy a hearty breakfast, lunch and dinner. You can book a shared or private room. And the cool thing is: each room is unique because you're sleeping in a work of art! Did you know that Stayokay Rotterdam also collaborates with local artists?
Between the cubes you'll find our hip restaurant "The Cube". This is the ultimate hangout for lunch, dinner and drinks. Whether you want to catch up with friends, study or enjoy the view on the terrace, this is the place to be.
