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

Excellent hotel.

Good location. Bike storage. Efficient staff. Comfortable rooms. Good breakfast. Reasonable prices. Great value for money.
Francis, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

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
Karen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Average but expensive

This hotel is not very modern, not even having USB sockets for charging. The room quite basic, my bed was releasing strange sounds with my every move. Awful smell in the toilet did not disappear all night. Kettle was not working. It’s not the hotel quality it used to be 5-10 years ago.
1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not a great hotel given the cost.

Quite an expensive hotel which is located in a great location (close to train station) in Leiden. For a hotel that seems to charge a higher end price, there is no bottled water in the room and the coffee is chargeable in the mornings (odd for a Dutch hotel). Also, the mini fridge in the room had the previous customers opened tinned tray of sardines, which was an unpleasant find. In short, there are many better hotels in Leiden.

the "open bathroom" was a bit odd since i was sharing with my son. so made showering a bit weird. Other than that, great place!
Bridget, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

When I arrived at one o'clock at the hotel, there are huge group and customers were queuing in the reception desk. There were only one staff working at the reception desk, I had to wait for checking in for half an hour. I had an appointment at two, due to the time loss, I was late for the appointment. The room was fine with a wonderful bathroom, the location is convenient. Just hope when the reception is crowded with guests, some staff could helped the situation.

4/10 Fair

Ok hotel. Men dårlig samlet oplevelse

De ansatte i reception var direkte ubehøvlede under både indtjekning og udtjekning. Havde for øvrigt også rod i registreringerne, så de forsøgte at få betaling for opholdet ved både ind- og udtjekning. Lidt uopmærksomhed fra min side ville have betydet dobbelt betaling. Og nærmest latterligt, blev receptionisten fornærmet over at blive opdaget i en fejl.

Uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen

Wir sind immer in diesem Hotel, wenn wir in Leiden sind. Die Lage ist ideal. Das private Parkhaus gleich neben dem Hotel ist superpraktisch. Das Personal stehts freundlich und hilfsbereit. Grossartiges Frühstück! Einzig Netflix oder Internetzugang auf dem TV fehlt uns noch. Aber vielleicht kommt das ja noch. Preislich sicher eher etwas im höheren Bereich. Trotzdem eine absolute Empfehlung und das Geld wert.

Daniel, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Geweldig verblijf gehad, service en personeel was uitstekend en dachten goed mee. Wel zou ik op de details letten van de Business Suites, de kunst hing niet goed mee, mag ook worden vernieuwd, kitwerk van de badkamer was achterstallig. Verder wel erg ruim opgezet, maar mag dus wel meer de klasse uitstralen wat je ervoor betaald en fris zijn. Personeel was uitstekend en service ook.

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.

Hotel und Zimmer waren nicht zu beanstanden. Allerdings war das Zimmer zur Strassenseite vor allem abends unertraeglich laut. Parken viel zu teuer. Insgesamt war das Preis-Leistung-Verhaeltnis nach unserem Empfinden nicht in Ordnung.
Jörg, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

We chose The Golden Tulip, for a week’s stay because it is so close to the Leiden Central Station, so it was a great location. We could quickly walk to all of the great areas of the wonderful city of lLeiden. The staff was friendly, helpful and professional. The double bed room was small, but well laid out, efficient and impeccably cleaned everyday. The bed was comfortable and the shower was great. The espresso machine was great! The room has been updated with great modern design. What was missing are the amenities we expect from a 4 star hotel. The bathroom amenities, particularly the hair conditioner and body lotion were virtually impossible to get out of the tiny containers, and there was no actual shampoo, just a body wash/shampoo combination. The soap dispensers seemed too cheap for a 4 star hotel. The hallways are quite dreary and could use some art on the walls. All that being said, we would stay at The Golden Tulip again, and hope that the ammenities hav3 been upgraded.
Betty and Bob Maddox, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Der Aufenthalt war soweit okay. Die Betten sind bequem. Nur verbesserungsfähig wären die Kopfkissen, sind zu dick. Das Frühstück ist reichlich, allerdings war die Käse und Wurstauswahl in den 3 Tagen immer gleich. Zufahrt zum Hotel müsste ausgeschildert sein.

10/10 Exceptional

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
Deborah, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

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.
