My daughter and I have just returned from a 3 night break here. The hotel is lovely, the property itself is beautiful, the location is perfect next to the canal, an easy walk from the station and in a quiet part of Leiden but within 5 mins of the centre. Our room on the second floor was stunning, very cosy. The best part of the stay was the staff, always polite, attentive and knowledgeable. Their English was great and they went the extra mile keeping us stocked up with English breakfast tea !

Nicely designed room and bathroom and very spacious. The kitchette was lacking in amenities to be able to use it for proper meals (no toaster, limited cutlery/pans etc).
Hotel is staffless and you get the key sent to your phone to enter the main entrance and room (requires internet), this was fine for us. The hotel is a great location, right in the middle of Leiden centre.

The hotel is excellent. It is very close to the railway station and thus should be convenient to walk into the historic city centre. However, there is no through route through the station (unless you hold a Dutch public transport card) so you have to walk round; the routes are not well marked and there is no signage for the hotel if you are on the wrong side of the station. For these reasons, I would not pick this hotel again - there are a number of others on the 'city' side of the station...

The Indes is an institution in the Hague, and whilst some hotels rely on the past, this hotel excels on so many levels. It's beautiful, but first and foremost the staff (ambassadors as they're known) are some of the best we've ever come across in the Netherlands, and that's going some as the Dutch are great at hospitality! From the door man to the waiting staff, everyone speaks to you and makes sure you have everything you need. The room was lovely and a good size, and the bathroom was big...

The hotel was located very close to the train and bus station in a nice quiet street. It was about a 10 minute walk to city centre.
The hotel was nicely decorated, very very clean and a delight to stay in.
Breakfast was good, dinner was on the small side but good.
The only thing we didn’t like was the lighting- we found the room quite dark and it was difficult to read in.
The staff went above and beyond to answer any of our queries- they were superb and all was done with a smile.

10/10 Excellent
A clean, modern, vibrant hotel designed in partnership with the neighbouring IKEA concept centre, and furnished almost entirely with IKEA furniture. That may not be everyone's idea of how a good hotel should be - but it works, and it's good. Parking is plentiful and inclusive, EV charging points too, cycle hire on site. The Delft City shuttle runs directly from the hotel car park. Adjacent to a busy IKEA store and motorway intersection. It's a half hour walk into Delft - and well worth it....
