Very nice hotel, handy for the station and a short walk into the city centre. The room was good-sized, clean and comfortable. We dined in the hotel on Xmas Day and it was excellent.
Clean, nice coffee machine and excellent mattress
Good shower, but a bit too small vanity
Was occasionally noisy outside during night time. Good restaurant
Everything was so clean. It even smelled clean. Staff were quick to address our needs when we requested something. Will definitely stay here again. Very close to train which was nice.
Enjoyed our stay~ close to train station & town. Room very comfortable and clean.
Breakfast buffet delicious and staff personable & helpful. Would stay here again
This was a great location to stay. Across the street from train and bus station. Easy access to the tulip gardens as they have a bus dedicated for the gardens at the depot. With the train station across the street made it easy to travel to other areas.
Restaurant was good and service was outstanding. And everyone was eager to help and spoke English!
Thanks
Hotel is exceptionally placed for visiting Leiden - walking distance to many places of interest. Hotel staff are helpful and friendly. Room was very comfortable.
Convenient near the town, canals and restaurants. A bit tricky to find the entrance if you drive. The restaurant was very good. Rarely you find a hotel or his caliber with a restaurant as good as this
Everything was ok, the suites could have some more extra for the value but it was spacious and convenient. The location was very central to Leiden and an easy walk to everywhere.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Friendly, efficient staff.
The room felt a bit dated for the price, no USB ports or English TV channels available.
Soft mattress, I like to have a window open at night but the crisp outside was noisy in room 208.
Hotel is in a super handy location close the the train and central
Bus station and just a few minute walk to the central part of Leiden
Hotel is close to train station, convenient to take train to other attractions. Hotel staff is professional and courteous, but not friendly nor put any extra effort in assisting the customers. I think this might be typical in Europe, unlike American hotels. We had the business suit, room is spacious but noisy in the morning from the elevator so don't sleep in late. Also room doesn't have enough lights and too dark at night for older travellers like us. Room's view out of window is a roof of the building with a wall in front, so no so good.
