ibis Leiden Centre

Despite near the train and main bus terminal, the rooms are v quiet and comfortable. Reception staff is very friendly and helpful. It’s a clean and adequate accommodation for a short stay and i would recommend t.

Very friendly

Very smooth check in and friendly staff. Egla was extremely polite and helpful for anything I needed and made sure I was well looked after, answering my questions before I even had them! Definitely will stay here again in Leiden!

Everything was amazing, central place, near by many places. The lobby personal very helpful. Just the perfect hotel.

This IBIS met expectations. I requested and was given a room with a view of the train station to watch the trains and the commuters. The view is a very lively show of frequent trains coming and going, and the room was quiet – noise was not a problem. There were enough electrical outlets to charge two iPhones at night and the WiFi was fine. Breakfast was satisfactory. The water is fine for drinking or filling your water bottle. The rooms are large (for an IBIS) and comfortable. The bed was very comfortable. The bed covering was a heavy comforter, without a top sheet, which is is very common now. A top sheet on the bed would be nice, because sometimes the comforter gets too hot at night.

In a longer review for a second recent stay, I shared at some length many positives of this property in terms of convenient location for either Leiden exploration or travel (train or bus), proximity of some practical necessities, friendly staff, plentiful & varied breakfast options, presence of an in-room kettle for tea/coffee prep, and good use of space in the room. But, I forgot to add one key plus for summer travel and one that I particularly appreciated on a multi-day stay in August - the HVAC system (one of those individual sorts that's mounted high on the wall) is both quiet & effective. That made all the difference in terms of good rest in the evening.

Great location for either exploring Leiden itself (at north end of the city) or using it as a home base for other journeys (train station & bus connections a very short walk); there are also some nearby food stores & a drug store/chemists for shopping needs; not a super-picturesque setting but very practical and with enough people about (and security features at the hotel) to feel safe. And, given the proximity to the train & busses, it's remarkably quiet. I've also found the staff to be very friendly & accommodating. Based on a prior stay I opted (solo traveler) for a room with a double bed and that included breakfast (varied & plentiful options); that gave me a bit more space in the room, while still being reasonably cost-effective. Efficient use of space, with some closet & open shelving, as well as a desk-like area and the all-important (for some of us anyway) kettle for boiling water for tea or coffee. Some signs of wear relative to a visit several years ago, but all was clean, comfortable, and functional - I can live with a scratch on the woodwork here & there. Only small disappointment was that some UK-associated TV stations present when one scrolled through the options, and that worked in a late July visit, were non-functional come August.

Convenient distance from train and buses. Plenty of restaurants walking distance.

My room was clean and very comfortable. The railway station was close by, as were a selection of supermarkets, cafés and restaurants. The canal-side restaurants were lovely. It was also very convenient for the Saturday market. I was very satisfied!

Great location - less than five minute walk from the train station, and about a five minute walk to the old town of Leiden. I had a small single, which was clean and perfect for my needs. My room faced the old town so I had a nice view of the windmills and church towers.

Great hotel and breakfast.

Great overall, would stay again

Great location and comfortable room.

I liked the fact that the hotel was across from the train station, the service was cordial and we had a comfortable stay.

Great location great facilities. The staff are so super helpful.

Great room

Wasn’t great

Cleaned and comfortable stay close to the train station, but out of ear shot of the noise from the station

Very close to the central station

Very nice hotel,very close to the train station, and in fact one could walk everywhere from the hotel. The room was a reasonable size with a very comfortable bed. The bathroom was small but with a good shower. My only complaint would be terrible pillows! Lovely helpful staff. There is a bar in the hotel. We didn't eat breakfast in the hotel as it was very expensive. All in all a very nice place to stay.

Very convenient location, easy and comfortable. Stayed 3 days and always nicely clean.

Just not very comfortable

Always the place we stay, when visiting Leiden. Great area and perfect nice hotel and rooms.

Perfect for train and bus station, next to a couple of supermarkets one of which stays open until 10pm. 5min walk to centre of Leiden. Pillows are so soft that you need to fold and fold and fold. Shower wasnt very powerful and the temp constantly changed depending on what other people were doing. Breakfast was nice for a budget hotel. TV is basic, but had a few UK channels. Free WiFi which was actually really good throughout. Overall a comfortable stay for a budget hotel. Would stay again.

Comfortable and quiet room, but rather basic and somewhat overpriced, probably paying for the location.

Excellent location - 2 mins walk to bus and train station, great restaurant choices. Very friendly and helpful staff.

We were allowed to book as soon as we arrived, which was 4 hours early. Saved us a lot of hassle.

The room was worn and dirty. The walls in the bathroom and obvious bodily fluids on them. The bedsheets were dirty and the room door needed to be pushed to close.
