Het Waterhof

The property has a marvelously historic past, which Fred was more than happy to explain on our impromptu tour of the centuries-old house. The little suite was beautifully decorated, modern (with old world charm) and very comfortable. Breakfast was AMAZING! delivered to our door , delightfully presented, with lots of choices, and slightly different each day. The neighborhood is fabulous, smack in the middle of Mayflower Pilgrim's and young Rembrandt's surroundings. Great restaurants, not a bad walk from Centraal Station (unless you're shlepping a lot of luggage - if so, take a local bus a couple of stops or a 2 minute uber). A ton of stuff to see and do (don't leave out Rembrandt's Latin School with the portrait window!) We LOVED Leiden and didn't spend enough time there. So we'll have to go back. When we do, we look forward to staying at Het Waterhof again!

Honestly nothing!

The Het Waterhof is located in a very old building, I found out upon arrival and Fred gave a tour and history of the building. The location is in the centre of Leiden and within walking distance of everything you need. Again a booklet has been produced by Fred and Marion with a list of recommended eateries, I attended a few and they were good. The breakfast is continental and extremely good. A very good standard of accommodation with everything you need. I would highly recommend it and will stay here again during my next trip to Leiden if it's available.

Lovely rooms in a historic building - spacious, high-ceilinged, beautifully restored. Very (big) comfy bed and smart shower room. Kitchen area with complimentary hot drinks (and a fridge) in the hallway. Our hosts (Marion and Fred) were very welcoming - also helpful and informative about the history of the building and about the city (local eateries etc). The breakfasts were delicious - very generous, varied and appetising. We had the best time! Leiden itself is delightful and we think this is the nicest B&B we have stayed in!

Everything was great!

We had a great stay ! The B&B is ideally located in the center of Leiden (around 10 min walk from the station), perfect for enjoying the city by foot of bike. The appartmentis very cozy, and part of a historical Dutch house. Fred, the owner, was very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed during the stay. And last but not least, the breakfast was simply wonderful (Fred especially made it veggie for us) !!

The place was very charming and incredibly well appointed. The breakfast part of the bed and breakfast was incredibly generous and we felt very much at home. Leiden was a fabulous destination - incredible food (Bree33 was outstanding) and bike hire (Bizon Bikes) meant we had a lovely time. We will be back. Thanks Fred and Marion for your generosity.

We didn't stay long enough.

Fred and his wife were the perfect hosts. The room was lovely. Well appointed, comfortable, and roomy. Breakfast was exceptional and very fresh. Fred was very helpful in suggesting things to do or restaurants to try. Location was very central and convenient to most things one wants to see in Leiden. I would highly recommend!

Nothing

The location is excellent - right in the heart of Leiden in a beautiful old house which felt like being in a Vermeer painting. Fred was a lovely host and the breakfast was excellent, also one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in!

Nothing - I thought this was a lovely place to stay

If you would like to feel like a special guest in a special place it is for you. You can soak up the atmosphere of the city with such a long history choose that hotel

The stay was to short.

The owner is personable and very knowledgeable. I lived in Leiden for years and yet learned more about the city from Fred. Great location. Excellent breakfast.

Conveniently located near to centre. Comfortable and spacious. Good Breakfast

Right on the street, so could get noisy at night as there are a few bars nearby
