Top Leiden University Hotel Reviews

Golden Tulip Leiden Centre

8/10 Good

"Very pleasant stay ... breakfast was a bit pricey"

Breathe Boutique hotel Leiden

10/10 Excellent

"Very courteous and friendly staff. The room was clean, and the lobby as well! Everything smelled so good. A lovely street/canal view from the loft room. Such perfect vibes all around!! Ten out of ten would stay here again."

Boutique Hotel d'Oude Morsch

10/10 Excellent

"excellent location comfortable hotel walking distance to centre"

Van der Valk Hotel Leiden

10/10 Excellent

"I enjoyed this beautiful hotel sitting on the canal. The air-conditioning is very weak and it took a long time for the rooms to get to be ever so lightly cool, not cold, but cool. Unfortunately, there was a heat wave during the time we stayed, making it very hard to get the room to cool down until the wee hours of the morning. Their buffet was nice and well worth the money. You pay extra to have the buffet, but it’s well worth it to start your day. I was hopeful that filtered water would be available to the guests staying there, however, that was not the case. You need to purchase water bottles in order to have it. The hotel staff were very helpful and very nice. Several tines they arranged for taxis to het around which was very helpful.. I will be coming back to this hotel in Leiden,"

Hotel VIC

8/10 Good

"The hotel was clean and the central AC was awesome! I was able to get a person while doing my check in but not always is someone there. Overall it is a good hotel and very close to the train station so convenient for traveling."

Fletcher Wellness - Hotel Leiden

8/10 Good

"Overall a pleasant stay. Best for couples since bathroom is open with a swing door between the toilet and shower so you can close one or the other but not both. Black stone sink has a tilt (not a regular design but with a flat edge at the bottom) so water never drains completely. I booked the hotel for the pool and hot tub, only to find that it is available from 8 - 9:30 am or 1.5 hours in the morning (with kids) without a fee (20 euros per day for the spa that includes the pool and hot tub) and when you are allowed to swim with a bathing suit on. Unfortunately, I am not ready to swim naked at a coed space. I had a massage at the spa and it was wonderful. Tried to book another appointment with my daughter and the front desk made a mistake telling me the time in English but wrote down the time an hour earlier in the system. Very stressful when we found out that we were late. They did NOT apologize and blamed me for not checking the email (which was hard for me to do while going to activities). We had said the time at least twice the night before when we booked in person (repeated twice so I was confident about the scheduled time). They did agree to reschedule- got a card with hand written confirmation this time. The hotel is located in a two tower building with a bridge inside. reception on 12 floor, take the elevator down to 10, walk thru the bridge to the other tower, then elevator to your floor. Tricky. 4 stars because of the value and convenience of the location."

ibis Leiden Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Well located next to the station and 2 shops. Comfy beds, great shower, wish there was more surface space but that's my only negative. Would happily stay again"

Bastion Hotel Leiden Voorschoten

8/10 Good

"The hotel is good but rooms has no air conditioning."

City Hotel Rembrandt

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, well -run, loved the quirky decor. Although it"s on a busy little street with bars and "coffee shops" and there can be noise at night, it"s very secure (four automatically locking doors between our studio and the street). Central and close to the station. You can easily do day trips all over the Randstad. The staff are very nice. Don't worry about arriving when reception is shut, the digital keys work."
