I have stayed here before when I was in Europe and was amazed to receive the same level of service. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. The hotel is clean and spacious and the location is perfect….a 5 minute walk to the train station and 10 minute walk to the heart of Leiden shopping. I will definitely stay here again.
The room was clean ,clean towels changed regularly although bin in bathroom wasnt emptied the last 3 days.
The reception staff were efficient and helpful .
Check in was simple and everything clearly explained. Clean rooms and comfortable beds. Every member of staff was friendly, cheerful and helpful. If we ever come to Leiden again, this is where we will stay.
comfortable bed and nice enough room in a very convenient location directly across from the train station. Only complaint is the soap shelf in the shower had a used (with lots of hair wrapped around) hair tie still sitting on it.

Nice large room with good bathroom
Staff were excellent friendly and efficient
Good location
Only downside there is no air conditioning which for a major brand in a European city was a surprise
nice clean room, fridge, kettle and coffee machine, would of preferred a double bed and duvet opposed to to single beds pushed together.
breakfast was fantastic
Booked 6 rooms for the running club. No issues checking in or out.
Staff very friendly and polite. Easy to get to from the airport and 10 minutes walk from the centre of town. Well worth the money.

You chose this hotel for its location, it’s convenient next to the station. However, no gym available even though this was said on the webpage and if you book a family room (with two small kids) where the room doesn’t a small refrigerator is not really useful. The beds fell apart so my daughter woke up basically on the floor :)
It was a perfect stay in the hotel. Breakfast was delicious, hotelbar very good. Check in and check out were fast en the parking is safe and for a good price!
Really good location a stones throw from Leiden train station

The property was conveniently situated for access to the city and public transport. The room and facilities were adequate , but housekeeping needs a big shakeup especially regarding bathroom hygiene.
