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.

The property was in a very good location. The decor seemed a little on the romantic/sexual side of things, but it was very accommodating. The whole building was very clean and the staff was extremely nice. We arrived late and the door was locked and when we buzzed, we had someone come around and get us to get around. The staff was very nice and took us back over to the self check-in kiosks and it went very smoothly after that. We did not have any issues at all the entire stay.

Fabulous location next to station

Perfect location but not when there is a festival on so do not stay around 3rd October . Flashing lights & Ibiza music 🙈 Had 2 sleepless nights but were quickly moved to a room at the back of hotel once i mentioned it to staff . Also she put a kettle in room with english tea which was a nice touch . Complementary breakfast would have been nice as 19€ was a bit pricey

Good for a short business stay.

Very functional (close to center and train station) and clean. Comfortable bed. Room layout was quite original (sink in the bedroom), but one element was not great : a large structural column right in the middle of the room, obstructing passage around the bed. Staff was extremely responsive and helpful when requested. However, the fact that staff at reception is "time-shared" with nearby hotel, and that a fully-automated station is in the main lobby made it for a slightly awkward check-in process.

This hotel was located very conveniently across from the train station. The self check-in system didn't work for us (it asked for a code that wasn't provided when our booking was confirmed online), so we had to call someone to help us. But, when there is staff in the lobby, they are always friendly and helpful. Our room was great--spacious, comfortable bed, nice view. Interestingly, the outside of the building is quite soundproof from the noise of the city, but the interior walls are not--we were able to hear sneezing, snoring, and the alarm in the morning of the people in rooms next to us. It was convenient having a mini fridge in the room, and the shower was really nice. Would stay here again, but will bring earplugs next time in case of noisy neighbors!

This hotel was great, clean, modern, quiet. Right next to the train station and a two minute walk into Leiden with shops & restaurants. All staff were lovely. The room was spotless, modern with big windows, blackout curtains, a coffee machine, fridge, smart TV with Netflix, great AC and wireless charging stations by the bed. Would happily return!
