Cool and vibrant hotel next to Leiden Centraal

We stayed at the Hotel Vic whilst touring The Netherlands. Our room was extremely clean and comfortable and the hotel as a whole was fantastic - smart and well located. We loved the vibrant decor, which made for a fun and vibrant stay. Leiden Centraal Station is just over the road and the city centre is only a few minutes away, but our room was lovely and quiet. There is a branch of Bagels and Beans just a few hundred metres away, which became our daily breakfast spot and which we would recommend also.

Worst hotel I have stayed in years

Hotel room smells really bad — I have window open all day and it still smells like an uncleaned toilet (mold? Human excrement? Dead mouse? I can’t tell). When I first got in the toilet bowl is covered with feces from the last guest I assumed. I will never go back again. I stay in hotels 100 nights every year, this is the worst I have been in years. Stay away at all cost.

We selected Hotel VIC because of the proximity to Leiden Centraal. We traveled by train 8 of the 11 days we were in the Netherlands, so having the station so close was a big bonus. The room was all that we needed it to be and the bed was wonderful!

Great location for the train station and bus to Keuchenhof. Fun style, clean and safe and despite being outside a traffic junction we weren’t disturbed by any outside noise. We had a small fridge in the room, a decent hairdryer and the mini market downstairs was handy. We had a great stay; it met our needs for exploring Leiden, jumping on the train/ bus to go exploring elsewhere.

Modern hotel, big room and great facilities. TV was damaged but we weren't really using it. We had a bit of trouble finding the car park as it wasn't sign posted from the main road.

Good and Bad

The positives were close to the station and the old town, good beds and breakfast was okay. The negatives were being on a busy junction, building is an old office block and the restaurant in hotel next door is not well run.
