Booked 6 rooms for the running club. No issues checking in or out.
Staff very friendly and polite. Easy to get to from the airport and 10 minutes walk from the centre of town. Well worth the money.
nice clean room, fridge, kettle and coffee machine, would of preferred a double bed and duvet opposed to to single beds pushed together.

The property was conveniently situated for access to the city and public transport. The room and facilities were adequate , but housekeeping needs a big shakeup especially regarding bathroom hygiene.
Customers should be aware of the fact that the hotel has two sections with slightly different names. This is to differentiate what they call 3 star versus 4 star accommodations. The key differentiator is that the 3 star section has no AC and old fashioned high bathtubs which can be quite dangerous for older people with less mobility to use. Their rooms are slightly larger than the 4 star rooms, however. Since my wife has significant mobility issues they were gracious enough to upgrade us to a 4 star room in the new section. With its walk in shower it met our needs perfectly. The only two things that we were not fond of were the two twin beds pushed together (which kept separating during the night) and the very limited lighting in the room.
Other than that the room was clean, neat and perfectly located to the train station so no need for a taxi. The walk into the old section of town was also quite short. The staff was always friendly and accommodating. One of the highlights of the hotel was its restaurant which served very good food - not the ordinary mediocre food typical of most American hotels.
The hotel was convinently located close to the train station and many eating options. We walked about 10 minutes from the hotel and found a lot of lovely local eateries. We did not eat at the hotel.
Our walls seemed fairly thin as our neighbors were speaking in a normal tone but we heard them. The room was spacious, There was a comfortable couch.
The property was in the process of being remodeled. The construction work could be heard sometime.
The location was excellent to the National train, shopping and eating areas.
We enjoyed our stay in the town of Zeist. Quiet and very close to nature. The rental bikes were well maintained and it took us 35 minutes (one way) to cycle to Utrecht. The hotel has a really nice cafe that is open late. The front desk were pleasant and they let us check in early! The room was clean and the bathroom had a nice sized tub. My only complaint is that the hotel smelled “old” if you know what I mean. It took getting used to.
This hotel was quite expensive for the awful condition that it is in. The rooms were old and shabby and the bathroom stank of sewage. I asked to have my room changed because the TV did not work. The second room was just as bad. But stank even worse.
I've stayed at this hotel on previous occasions, and this time I was lucky enough to have a room upgrade which was most appreciated. The hotel is closed to Leiden Central train station and also a short walk into the centre of town where there is a multitude of restaurants.
The Golden Tulip ( Tulip Inn) is in a very convenient location. It was only a block from the train station. It had a full service restaurant for dinner on its property. The location was walkable to the center of town and its museums.
