This is not an exhaustive list, of course: rather a few ideas of where to put visiting family and friends up! If you have anywhere else you would like to recommend, let me know at harriet@homeinleiden.nl .
Single occupancy from € 80 per room
Double occupancy from € 96 per room
Breakfast buffet (excellent) extra ( € 12.50 per person)
This lovely hotel has just opened and has 20 rooms and is the only hotel in central Leiden with a lift and proper disabled access. Its situation in the rather run-down area of the Beestenmarkt, flanked by many fast food and other restaurants, should not put you off, as it is shiny new inside and the proprietors are very nice people very eager to please. Occasional teething problems due to its recent opening, but in my opinion the best hotel to put visitors up in. Nice bar and restaurant downstairs with excellent food.
Single occupancy from € 85 per room to € 105 per room
Double occupancy from € 105 per room to € 135 per room
Breakfast buffet (ok but not great) extra ( € 7.50 per person)
This is a family run hotel in a beautiful grand old house on the Rapenburg canal, near the station end of Breestraat. The rooms vary from enormous to tiny, and have character, and are rather unconventionally furnished. Some of the smaller rooms upstairs feel rather untidy and unloved, so it is not a hotel for people who require modern minimalism. Many of the rooms are a long way up steep stairs, so do be aware of this when booking rooms for people with mobility issues or small children as there are some rooms available on the ground floor. However, since there are steps up to the front door the hotel itself is not really accessible for wheelchairs or pushchairs.
Single occupancy from € 83 per room to € 168 per room
Double occupancy from 116 to 198 per room
Rooms sleeping up to 4 people also available at good value. Also themed rooms
Breakfast included
This is a nice hotel located very centrally along from V&D. There is a very wide range of rooms - including themed rooms, some of which are quite bizarre but a fun idea. Some of the rooms are up a lot of stairs, no lift. The rooms to be shared by 4 people work out at good value and are a good option for visiting friends who don't mind bunking up!
Single occupancy € 75 per room
Double occupancy € 90 per room
Lower prices for longer stays available on request
This is a really lovely small ground-floor studio apartment absolutely right in the centre of town. It is really beautifully and originally furnished and extremely comfortable. All the necessary things for a simple but nice breakfast are in the apartment already.
