Top Waag Hotel Reviews

Hotel VIC

8/10 Good

"Super comfy bed — especially for the price! — and cute decor. Staff were lovely when they were around. Check-in is via screen in the lobby and staff are available only by phone after normal business hours. There’s a little convenience store with some essentials but they were out of toothbrushes and toothpaste. My group booked 2 rooms. Both were clean but one didn’t have a bolt on the door (literally just a hole in the side of the door where the bolt should be). In that same room, the coffee machine didn’t work and a lamp was broken. Not sure why they put guests in there when so many things don’t work! Perhaps they would have moved us if we’d figured it out earlier, but it was quite late by the time we got back to the hotel and figured all of this out so we just went to sleep. Still, I slept well because the bed was comfy and the room was very dark and cool. Overall I’d stay again, but would check all the essentials before going out for dinner!"

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."

The old warehouse: a completely renovated apartment in the center of Leiden

10/10 Excellent

"Pros:•Extremely close to Pelikkan bus stop (1-min walk), which is a 5-min bus ride from Leiden Centraal train station. Apartment is in a quiet part of the city center & a very short walk to restaurants (Bikini Bikini & Fat Pelican), grocery store, & liquor store. And easy walking proximity to most anything else in Leiden city center.•The apartment was truly spotlessly clean. Very neat & tidy.•Well-appointed kitchen with all amenities as stated in the listing. Host provided starter amounts of coffee, tea, & paper towels. Plenty of dishwasher detergent pods for use during our 6-night stay. Plenty of dishes, utensils, & cookware for our needs during our stay.•Bathroom & toilet room were spotlessly clean. Plenty of shower wash, shampoo, toilet paper, & washing machine pods. There is a large bathtub & a separate, fully-enclosed shower. Ample supply of clean towels available for us.•Both bedrooms have very large wardrobes with ample shelving & hanging closet rod space. Also had extra blanket in each bedroom. We found the king-sized bed to be very comfortable.•As per the listing, there are smoke detectors & first aid kit.•We had no issues with Wi-Fi speed while streaming or using multiple devices simultaneously.•Host communication was excellent. Sabine was very quick to reply to any questions & provided helpful information about the area. We appreciated the personal check-in on arrival as well.Cons:•We have no cons.Would we stay here again? Absolutely yes."
