Bastion Hotel Leiden Voorschoten

The bed is really so good And it was so quiet to sleep

There were some spider nets on the ceiling corners And the espresso machine in the room was not working

Good location, just off the A4 and less than 10 minutes drive to the city centre. Shopping mall within short walk. Good choice of walks/runs along the canals. Comfortable rooms, with everything you might need. Welcoming and friendly staff - we loved the made-to-order omelettes at breakfast. We had dinner at the hotel one evening - well cooked and enjoyed by all of us.

No issues

I mainly chose this hotel because its location was convenient to a friend's house just across the canal. The rooms were basic but clean and the beds were comfortable. The free parking was convenient. The Nespresso machine in the room was a nice touch.

The hotel seems to exist in this location to support club sports teams that compete at the sports facilities just next door -- otherwise I can't see how the location makes sense (though it was very convenient for our purposes). The building's decor is a bit generic and to be honest, it reminded me of photos I once saw of a Norwegian prison cell -- very nice for a prison but for a hotel it's basic and lacking in charm or character. If you're not on an ultra tight budget and you're visiting Leiden as a tourist you'll probably want to stay closer to the city center.
