Find the Cheap Leeuwarden Hotels

On the one hand, it’s very cool to be able to say we stayed in a palace. We could easily tell one of the larger meeting rooms had been a place to entertain many guests, maybe even a ballroom. The yard behind the hotel is lovely and inviting. The staff were helpful. The breakfast buffet was typical for European hotels, and we found the variety of Dutch breads, cheeses, and sprinkles a nice touch. The location in the center of town can’t be beat. Our bed was comfortable, as were the pillows. Being able to open the windows was wonderful, since we like to sleep cold. They even provided a fan that we could use both to keep the room cool and give us some white noise On the other hand—someone needs to put a lot of money and love into this place. It is in desperate need of a major facelift. We stayed on the first floor and the carpeting in the hallway was terribly stained and worn—sometimes right through to the floor. While the carpeting in our room was a tiny bit better, it looked so bad, I didn’t want to walk barefoot on it. The walls in the hall and in our room desperately need to be painted. I wouldn’t even sit on the furniture upholstered in cloth in our room. Everything was saggy and worn. I was also put off by the door locking with a key that only worked part of the time. There was no safe in the room and because we only had an old-fashioned key, we carried everything of value with us wherever we went. For quite some time, I wondered if I just didn’t have an adventurous spirit and needed to remember that perhaps standards in other parts of the world are different from what I’m used to. And yet… While having to park 500 meters away was a pain, I completely understood that Leeuwarden wasn’t constructed to accommodate parking lots near hotels. That’s simply the hotel and town’s historic roots. Would I have liked plush towels? Yes. Not a dealbreaker. But I still can’t get past how many areas hadn’t had attention for so long and what amazing potential the hotel has if someone would put some loving care into it.

The hotel was very clean, and situated in a convenient place! I really began to appreciate the lengths that folks in The Netherlands go to to keep their business operations sustainable as well. Gorgeous town with lots of friendly people. I fell in love with the place. I would definitely go again, and choose this location to stay in. The view from my room was very pretty, as well.

Until a copple of years ago, sleeping in Leeuwarden meant sleeping in my mothers guestroom. Times have changed so i had to book a hotel in order to visit “Bosk” and “Paradys”. I rememberd from old times the post office so when i saw that it had transformed in a four star luxury hotel i booked it rightaway (even without checking tripadvisor which I always do). It turned out great. Very friendly staff and a beautiful restored buiding with decent bedrooms. Since it was only for one night we booked the smallest (and cheapest) junior comfort room but that was fine. They only point of attention is the fact that there is little space to put down your clothes. There’s only one chair and no table. On the other hand: there are lot’s of hooks to hang them and the excellent (rain)shower is sort of a ballroom in it’s own. We haven’t tested the restaurant, although we did have a beer at the brasserie, but looking at all the happy people in the sold out restaurant i think it’s quite good. We dined at the neigbours. Steef’s restaurant, pretty new but really amazing. Definitely Michelin quality. Well, looking for a good hotel in Leeuwarden this is the right place to go. It’s right in the heart of the city. Everything you want to do is at walking distance.

For the birthday of a 90 year old (with Alzheimer's disease) we had reserved lunch in a quiet place. They had indeed chosen a quiet spot and the table was decorated. So incredibly attentive, you feel very welcome as a guest. Everyone enjoyed the lunch, everything was very tasty. There was something for everyone. This restaurant is highly recommended.

The hotel location is great, right next to NHL Stenden University. I came back to attend the graduation ceremony. I just came to experience the hotel. There is free parking and no breakfast, but it should be good. I saw a breakfast buffet. Although the cheapest room was booked, the interior was surprisingly good, very comfortable and welcoming, and the price was very high. Free drinking water and chocolate in the room, as well as dried plums and nuts. Will book again!

Very wide and beautiful modern room with a good bed. Bad room also very wide. Only sad that there was a little sand in the bathroom. Minpoint is that it is about 20 minutes walk to Leeuwarden Center. Also there was no refrigerator in the room.
