Frommer's Review

Once you find it, you'll bless this hotel for its generally quiet-yet-central location, surely one of the best in town, and a friendly staff, which together make up for some deficiencies in other attributes. Tucked away on a side street just off the Dam's Nationaal Monument, the Rho's building was once the offices of a gold company and, before that, a theater from around 1908 (which is now the reception and breakfast area). Most rooms are modern and comfortable, if not overly inspired in the looks department, and some are on the small side. This is one of those places where it pays to check out a few rooms, if you can, before committing.

Facilities:
Lounge; bikes; all rooms smoke-free

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
