The Tulip Inn is ideally situated for all transport links.
Shops, restaurants and bars are within easy walking distance.
Staff are very welcoming and most helpful.
Excellent restaurant and bar.
Our 8 day trip could not have been better. The hotel was clean and the staff were kind and very accommodating. The room was quiet and cleaned daily. I loved the espresso machine in the room. The location is excellent for walking or biking around Leiden. Central Station is literally across the street and on the other side of the block is De Valk Windmill. Really loved our stay here and will be back next time for sure. Thank you for making our first trip to Leiden such a success!
This hotel is so close to the train station and a lot of shopping and dining opportunities - unbeatable. In room coffee and tea is good to start the day or relax after. We'd stay again. Only complaint - the tub is too high really.
All the staff are fantastic . Big shoutout to Dave the barman and is of menu cocktails
Definitely be back. Leiden a fabulous city and 30 minutes to the major cities. use the NS train app. Easy to use and you do not have to use the booked train time.

A very nice hotel near to center of town and train
Wonderfully located hotel about 500 yards from the rail station so we took the train on our visits to Amsterdam for only 21 euros round trip. Excellent breakfast and dining room above average. Close to town historical center in the very lovely town of Leiden.

Dear Paul, Thank you for sharing your experience during your recent stay. We are happy to read you enjoyed the location of our hotel. Hopefully we may welcome you an other time in our beautiful Leiden.
Service was great, staff very helpful. I checked in early out of a red eye flight. Room assigned was originally street front and near elevator but it got changed without problems.
Great location near central Station but not noisy or unsafe in any way. Room was basic but very large and clean and comfortable. Staff was nice and professional and the morning breakfast buffet is enormous with lots of options. Highly recommend for enjoying Leiden and as a hub to take day trips to surrounding areas.

Dear Jean, Thank you for taking the time to write this great review. We are glad to hear you enjoyed the room, location, your stay and our friendly staff. We hope to welcome you again!Kind regards,
In addition to the excellent facilities and service we experienced at the hotel, its close proximity to the train and bus stations was a huge plus.
The only thing we missed was a handle bar in the shower to make bathing safer. We were always concerned about slipping.
This is a good, basic place to stay. Access to the Leiden central train station is very good, and you can easily walk to the historic area. The rooms were clean and nice, though nothing special. Breakfast is a bit pricey but delicious.
Wonderful staff, very convenient location - both for access to public transportation and walkability into Leiden center. Could hear street traffic but despite being near the elevator, never heard other guests in hall or adjacent rooms. Would recommend!
Lovely hotel and very friendly staff. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others.

Close to everything (city centre and train station). Very clean hotel. We had a comfort room and apparently the air conditioning controlled in that part of the hotel is done by the desk so FYI that you can’t make your room colder in that area. Otherwise, everything wonderful.

A great spotlessly clean hotel with very friendly helpful staff. Location is perfect. A 5 minute walk to the station, so great to get to Amsterdam, and a gorgeous short walk along the canal into beautiful Leiden.
We were very happy with our spacious family room.

I have stayed here before so was more than happy to book again. The hotel is really well located, very close to the train station and convenient to the town. The staff are always very professional and helpful. It is very good value for money, the breakfast during our most recent stay was excellent also.

I would describe this hotel as ridiculously over priced for the room we were given. It would appear cleanliness is not a priority with toilet brushes left with residual paper left unclean. Normally I would have complained however we were only there for 3 nights so put up with it.

I rented a room here for my kids. The rooms are very basic and small. The rooms on the other side of the hotel “The Golden Tulip” are nicer and bigger - also more expensive. It was fine for the purpose and is sort of “dorm” like. The staff is nice and it’s close to the train station. It does not offer the level of comfort my husband and I are accustomed to for our ourselves.
