Top Leiden University Hotel Reviews

Hotel VIC

8/10 Good

"It's worth noting that the shower and washbasin are in the bedroom, not in a separate room. Also, be sure to set the Do Not Disturb button by the door to avoid being rudely awoken by the cleaner ringing the bell repeatedly. Otherwise it's a good spot, well situated for the station."

"Clean, well -run, loved the quirky decor. Although it"s on a busy little street with bars and "coffee shops" and there can be noise at night, it"s very secure (four automatically locking doors between our studio and the street). Central and close to the station. You can easily do day trips all over the Randstad. The staff are very nice. Don't worry about arriving when reception is shut, the digital keys work."
