Several reviews note the lack of air conditioning, occasional street noise at the front, some dated fittings, and weak shower pressure or awkward half screens.

Really good room, convenient, parking at 19.95 eur per day. The price reflects it, there is no air con, which is ok for about 340 days per year. That said I would stay there again.

POSITIVE : the location was good because we had a car, including the secure parking garage. The hotel email telling us the address of the car park wait area was good to receive, BUT to not mention the massive amount of road works getting to it was a major problem. The road works was due to Kermis which I’m sure every citizen knows about. The hotel should have told us to make sure our GPS was able to pick up road works, or at least told us to avoid inner city streets. Instead of 10 minutes till arrival when we hit the road works, it was an hour and lots more kilometres and frustration! Each detour brought us to another one and another one etc etc! The room was small but okay for 1 night. The shower pressure was pathetic, which I guess was okay for the cleaner because with the lack of shower curtain, water would have been all over the floor. Not good! Bed was comfy enough, but slightly hard. Good to have large windows to see outside (high rise building view). Hotel itself is in need of an update for the price they charge for both the tiny room and high car park cost.

The Tulip Inn is a very well appointed property with a range of facilities. The staff are welcoming and most amenable. The restaurant provides a fine range of cuisine. This property is conveniently placed for all the amenities of Leiden. It is situated directly opposite the bus and rail stations providing links to the local area as well as all other areas of the Netherlands and beyond. Thoroughly recommended.

We had a pleasant stay at the Golden Tulip. Leiden is beautiful. The hotel was quite pricey and a short 10 min walk from the main restaurant area. The hotel bar was pretty expensive we had two beers for €21 which is ridiculous!! The room was really spacious with lots of natural light and a huge bathroom. The room was really warm and no fans were provided. Luckily we brought our own as travelling with a car. Overall, a great stay but would probably find a cheaper alternative next time.

De locatie is prima, vlak bij het station en het centrum. Verder niet bijzonder sfeervol of hartelijk. Donkere gangen, muffig tapijt, ontbijt met liftmuziek, standaard hotelsfeer. Sportfaciliteiten bevinden zich niet in het hotel zelf. Praktisch maar niet inspirerend.

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!

Die Betten waren Katastrophal ungemütlich und haben sich bei den Doppelbetten die ganze Zeit auseinander geschoben. Die Fenster haben eigentlich keine Geräusche gedämmt und Nachts an der Straßenseite war es unglaublich laut, gerade weil der Tunnel direkt am Hotel anscheinend sehr beliebt ist bei Rasern mit lautem Auspuff. Das Frühstück war mehr als simpel und die Qualität des Essens und die Zubereitung lässt zu wünschen übrig. Am dritten und vierten Tag haben wir dann das schon bezahlte Frühstück geskipped und haben in einem Cafe in der Nähe gefrühstückt.
