Very centrally located which means convenient/sometimes noisy. The staircase (no lift) is very steep - perhaps not okay for some. The VWoolf room is right above the main door; when guests come in and out, the building shakes. Lovely room, bathroom, necessary A/C (!) ##### Helene Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jul 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice place in a fantastic area Amazing room although could use a freshen up paint wise . Housekeeping was hit and miss but didn’t really bother us . If you stay in the Virginia Wolfe suite be prepared for some notice and NO privacy from the street of your shutters are open., also everytime someone opens and shuts the main door you Weill hear and feel it in this suite . All that being said it was a great place to stay and a great location, easy to get to public transport and restaurants and bars.

I loved the author themed-room, spacious, beautifully decorated, comfy (+AC). The location was perfect, lively Wed market, AH supermarket nearby, and a gelato place next door. The killer is stairs. They were steep, narrow, winding, and you have to haul your luggage up. Also, it is a staff-less hotel meaning no one to welcome you, all the housekeeping requests via Whatsapp and things get done silently without any acknowledgement. Also, Leiden is a university town and you'll need a pair of ear plugs Fri-Sun. One more thing, don't forget to charge your phone because you can not even enter the hotel lobby. Still, I would stay again if I revisit Leiden. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/89752f5c-7837-481b-ab67-53379ce51940-1752100345484.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Suh Young Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Joshua Aug 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service #### Great place to stay to explore Leiden! Great place to stay to explore Leiden! We stayed for a couple of nights and were in the Netherlands for a wedding and visit friends, which meant we were usually out late. This meant we weren't too disturbed by the bars under the hotel as they close relatively early (around 12pm-1am on Fridays and Saturdays). Earplugs are provided which work really well. The location is the main selling point for this hotel if you don't mind a bit of noise at night, very central and gives you an amazing feel for the city as well as good food, bars and sights at walking distance The space itself is lovely! It has character and a nice finish. Although some of the reviews say they have trouble with the digital keys, it worked flawlessly for us. The only negative to our stay was the responsiveness of the host. The response via Whatsapp was very delayed or didn't happen at all, and I tried calling about luggage storage (which was available) but did not get a response. Overall would recommend and will stay again if visiting Leiden. ##### Joshua Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Margaret Nov 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities There was considerable noise from the street, but ear plugs are provided and they did the trick.

It is beautifully situated. The room and general hotel are unique in a good way. The difficulty is the spiral staircase (particularly if you've travelled internationally with a suitcase). The automated doors were new to us, but we adjusted accordingly. Unlike some staffed hotels, it's not possible to check-in early, so it's good to be aware of that when planning. Overall, though, the proprieter was responsive and friendly. I would stay there again. ##### James Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sophie Sep 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great location and spacious place. Lovely place, fab location, really spacious and we were so happy with our choice. We were in the Virginia Woolf room on the 1st floor and I’d highly recommend as the view is great and only up one flight of the steep stairs! It is noisy due to its super location in the thick of things, but we didn’t mind that. The electronic access etc worked fine for us all the time and we liked having the little kitchen. ##### Sophie Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Frank Jun 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort NIce stay, very central and standard is good. Only thing is that the fan on the neighbour ceiling makes a bit of noise, så it can be challanging to have the windo open at night ##### Frank Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kaitlin Apr 24, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great stay in the center of Leiden! Short walk to Central Station. Room 4 was larger than expected and had everything including dishes/cutlery, coffee, toiletries etc. Virtual check-in was quick and easy, and QR code in the room provided lots of useful information for the area. Overall fantastic stay and would highly recommend CTY Books! ##### Kaitlin ### 8/10 Good #### Philip Apr 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Room was nice with a living area/kitchen on one level and a bed up in the loft area. Only downside was the steep narrow staircases to get to our room which some people, especially with large suitcases, might struggle with. Otherwise a pleasant stay. ##### Philip Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Katherine Jul 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Older couples beware Maybe I should have read more reviews.....I knew there was not an elevator, but I did not realize how steep the spiral staircase was to room 6, but then there was also another spiral staircase (made of wood and metal) to get to the bedroom. In addition to that the bedroom has beams to knock your head into. .... overall at 55/59 years young we did not feel comfortable. Also, room was super hot when we arrived. There were no directions to the thermostat and shades were open...after a meltdown we figured out the thermostat... directions would have helped. On a positive note, we did enjoy a stovetop, sink, fridge, and microwave. Overall, if lots of spiral steps are not your thing, CTY books might not be a good choice. If you like lots of character and being near restaurants/shopping, you might like it. ##### Katherine Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sean Nov 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities There is no bar or restaurant onsite but you are right next to a number of great bars, restaurants and cafes.
