"Nicely designed room and bathroom and very spacious. The kitchette was lacking in amenities to be able to use it for proper meals (no toaster, limited cutlery/pans etc). Hotel is staffless and you get the key sent to your phone to enter the main entrance and room (requires internet), this was fine for us. The hotel is a great location, right in the middle of Leiden centre."

Intercityhotel Leiden

Intercityhotel Leiden

10/10 Excellent
"Location was a stone throw from Leiden central station which convenient if you are travelling to nearby places. About a 5-10 min walk to the city center. Room was a good size and comfortable. Shower pressure was great! And the bathroom size is good. Note that the bathroom has frosted windows and is see through, it can be covered with curtains (from the outside). The rooms felt modern, wasn’t dated. Elevators only accessible by room key so is secured. Room was brightly lit and there is a small free bottle of water on arrival. Staff were friendly though check in was very slow. A shout out to Nadia at the bar would was very friendly and warm and helped me with some ice. The two downsides were that there was no fridge and no air cond. The climate control system is + or - 3 degrees but i didn’t feel it was working and the room can become a bit warm. The weather wasn’t too hot so I was fine but if you are staying during summer or winter, I would reconsider if the heat/cold bothers you. They also give you a voucher for a free small cup of coffee which was nice. It was good coffee too. Closest supermarket is the AH at the station (it’s a small one). If you want a full size there is also a jumbo near the station about a five minute walk from hotel. I would stay here again if it is not during summer or winter. It was a comfortable stay. Would love to see the hotel install a fridge for staying guests in the future, there is room for it in the cupboard."
