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 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 ### 8/10 Good #### James Mar 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The property is located in central Leiden. 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 ### 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 ### 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. The web based keys worked and were simple to use. ##### Sean Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 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 #### Alexandra M Nov 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Will stay there again for my next meeting Had very pleasant stay at CTY. The windows are thin but they supply earplugs in the “reception”. I’m quite noise sensitive so probably wouldn’t stay in this room around the weekend, but that’s just me. It took me a while to figure out how the sitcom worked, so it was very cold the first morning. This also turned out to be because one window wasn’t closed properly (which also helped a bit with the noise, but not much). There was room service, which I didn’t expect to a two night stay. And the best iron i have ever experienced in a hotel! Made it really easy to iron my shirts. Location is central and lovely atmosphere. Will stay for next meeting as well. ##### Alexandra M Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Olivier Feb 26, 2024 Liked: Amenities I love the ease of entering the room digitally, it’s easy and no hassle. If anything it’s not very personal, which i don’t even mind. Staff (room service) was very friendly, no issues. It is a weird feeling not seeing any staff around. Not a big issue but some spots clearly weren’t vacuumed. But i only noticed when checking under the bed for any of my items. ##### Olivier Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Hilde Merete May 14, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice and Central place, but service could improve Nice and cool place, very central! Unfortanely we had several pravtical hick-ups. We did not receive the welcome Mail with access to the electronic key, but fortunately, there were someone in the reception when we arrived who actually checked us in. Unfortunately he forgot to mention that there was a back-up key in a «locker-box» which would have been nice to know when the eletronic key stoppet working on day 2\. We found a phone-number after some time and he guided us to the key. Also the reception was unaware that access to a gym was included in the booking, but he was very helpful, and arranged for access to the nearby gym which we enjoyed. When we arrived, there was food left in the fridge from previous guest. On day 2 also the wifi fell out, as well as the hot water. The housekeeper managed to fix the hot water in the afternoon (a fuse on the heater), but the internet was still down (and thus the Netflix access on TV) for the rest of the stay (4 days). On day 3, we did not get clean towels or filling up of coffee/tea. All these incidents makes the score go down from a very nice place in beautiful Leiden. PS, the bed was very good, have seldom slept so good away from home! ##### Hilde Merete Stayed 4 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Grahame Oct 9, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent hotel, highly recommended ##### Grahame Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laurence Dec 13, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fantastic hotel, very stylish A++ Fantastic hotel in the perfect location to explore the beautiful town of Leiden ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/C635FEA79F028F82C8DD955DF703480FE3BA17391576244773918.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Laurence Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Aaron Jun 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful property in a wonderful location.
