"CTY Books is in the perfect spot in Leiden, with a market just outside twice a week. Lots of amazing pubs/restaurants around too! The room was lovely (we had the loft) with a perfect view of the canal! "
"Right on the canal up from the old city but close to train station, too, the hotel is perfectly located. Great vibe to the lobby and pub on site. Nice rooms. And great pubs and restaurants right outside the door. "

At this park with scale models you can see all the important places in the Netherlands, and admire the country’s groundbreaking designs, in just hours.
Lovely city - all the charm of Amsterdam but without the craziness. We've been several times and it's wonderful. The beach isn't too far and worth a trip on a warm day. Delft and Den Haag are just a short train ride away and we'll worth a trip too.

The Burcht is one of my favorite places to chill. Sophies Cat Cafe is a nice experience. No smoking inside coffeeshops in Leiden like in Amsterdam or the Hague.

This is a great town which seems to be overlooked on the tourist destination map of the Netherlands. Plan on spending at least an afternoon wandering the streets and canals. They also have a great hospital within walking distance of the hotel.
