Top Old Observatory Hotel Reviews

Hilton Garden Inn Leiden

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing experience overall. Everything about this was wonderful. A short 30 minute walk from Leiden Centraal and a lovely part of the city."

Hotel VIC

8/10 Good

"Extremely convenient, but a short walk from Leiden Centraal station, just watch out for the bicycles. The path to the rooms feels early bordello: thick purple carpet with pink lighting and deep blue walls. That said, my room was large, clean and modern. While the deep blue walls were not what I would pick, the separate toilet was tastefully finished, the shower bigger than most with new rain shower and shower head. The in-room sink, again not what I would have picked was a quality install with a well illuminated shaving mirror. The rest of the room was large and clean with high ceilings. The large windows were well insulted from road noise; important because the hotel is at the intersection of two busy roads. I experienced two issues: - the Keurig coffee maker was broken and unable to brew the coffee pods. - the soap dispenser in the shower was completely empty. I menitioned this when checking out. The person on duty said I should have contacted the front desk. No, when one is in the shower and soaking and reaches for the soap dispenser only to find it is empty one is not going to contact the front desk. Despite these issues which could easily be addressed from a proper operations management protocol, This was the best hotel I have stayed in the Netherlands and I gave it 5 stars. I would not look for another option if I return to Leiden."

Boutique Hotel Steenhof Suites - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms are located right at the walking center of Leiden in a lovely restored building on one of the loveliest canals. The rooms are well appointed with comfortable beds and spacious bathrooms. Turn left out the door to the public market and the main shopping streets. Turn right to the lovely Pieterskerk (c 1221), many nice restaurants on the Cloksteg and the old academic buildings of the venerable Leiden University and it’s famous gardens."

Intercityhotel Leiden

10/10 Excellent

"Everything at the Intercity hotel Leiden was perfect. The staff were brilliant always very willing to help, check in and out were simple and quick. My room was very clean and quiet and the bed and shower were great. Breakfast had plenty of choice and was very good. I will definitely stay at this hotel again."

City Hotel Rembrandt

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The staff were very kind and helpful throughout our visit. They generously allowed us to store our luggage until 5:30 p.m. after check-out so we could spend the day doing research at the university library. Since the front desk is not staffed after 2:00 p.m., they clearly explained how to contact them. When we called, they immediately opened the door remotely so we could collect our luggage. It was a very clever and convenient system, and everything worked perfectly. Their kindness and flexibility made our trip much easier. We would be very happy to stay here again!"

Breathe Boutique hotel Leiden

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. We had the beautiful loft room overlooking the canal.it was even better than the photos. The room was spotlessly clean. Every morning we enjoyed the complimentary coffee. The staff was wonderful and we loved the quiet walks along the canals to get to the center of town (about 15 mins). We would definitely stay again."
