We chose The Golden Tulip, for a week’s stay because it is so close to the Leiden Central Station, so it was a great location. We could quickly walk to all of the great areas of the wonderful city of lLeiden. The staff was friendly, helpful and professional. The double bed room was small, but well laid out, efficient and impeccably cleaned everyday. The bed was comfortable and the shower was great. The espresso machine was great! The room has been updated with great modern design. What was missing are the amenities we expect from a 4 star hotel. The bathroom amenities, particularly the hair conditioner and body lotion were virtually impossible to get out of the tiny containers, and there was no actual shampoo, just a body wash/shampoo combination. The soap dispensers seemed too cheap for a 4 star hotel. The hallways are quite dreary and could use some art on the walls. All that being said, we would stay at The Golden Tulip again, and hope that the ammenities hav3 been upgraded.

Average but expensive

This hotel is not very modern, not even having USB sockets for charging. The room quite basic, my bed was releasing strange sounds with my every move. Awful smell in the toilet did not disappear all night. Kettle was not working. It’s not the hotel quality it used to be 5-10 years ago.

This was a great location to stay. Across the street from train and bus station. Easy access to the tulip gardens as they have a bus dedicated for the gardens at the depot. With the train station across the street made it easy to travel to other areas. Restaurant was good and service was outstanding. And everyone was eager to help and spoke English! Thanks

Hotel is close to train station, convenient to take train to other attractions. Hotel staff is professional and courteous, but not friendly nor put any extra effort in assisting the customers. I think this might be typical in Europe, unlike American hotels. We had the business suit, room is spacious but noisy in the morning from the elevator so don't sleep in late. Also room doesn't have enough lights and too dark at night for older travellers like us. Room's view out of window is a roof of the building with a wall in front, so no so good.

Among the many positives; Kind staff (cleaning team!! and front desk). Even the renovation workers were also considerate. Very quiet and relaxing in the evening. The suite room was very comfortable. The bath was also such a lovely addition, great for my kid to enjoy. There were lobby seating areas that looked very pleasant to enjoy a chat. Very minor downsides: The baggage carts were challenging to steer. The lifts were quite small, so a baggage cart and a person is difficult to fit into the lift together. TV /channels were a little challenging to sort out. Ketnet and youtube didn't seem to work, which would have been better entertainment options for the moments the young ones need it. Everything worked out well, and we very much enjoyed our stay!

Good staff, good surrounding. Great location—just steps from the Leiden Central station. However, the bathroom was extremely unclean—to the point that one should never give this hotel a four star rating. Expedia should take these things into consideration when rating a hotel. The toilet bowl had terrible stain! I don’t want to give a description of it. Wish I had a better room with clean toilet. That said, since I might go to Leiden soon, I’ll probably end up staying here again simply because of the location.
