Comfortable and adequate.
Pros:

Nice spacious room. Pretty gardens. Proximity to bird garden. Late check out.

Cons:

The price of the bikes. We thought €20 each was a lot to just get to parkrun and back. We were very disappointed that there was no flexibility in this price. As a result we didn't take them and walked instead!

Ruhiges, entspanntes Hotel mit sehr gutem Restaurant, ideal für eine Nacht beim Keukenhof-Besuch – jedoch recht abgelege
Pros:

Ein schöner, entspannter Ort für eine Übernachtung bei einem Besuch im Keukenhof. Das Hotel bietet eine hervorragende Restaurantküche für ein gelungenes Abendessen. Durch die ruhige, abgelegene Lage ist es ideal, um einfach im Hotel zu entspannen oder ein nahegelegenes Restaurant zu genießen – perfekt für eine erholsame Auszeit.

Cons:

Ein angenehmer Aufenthalt für eine Nacht, jedoch ist die sehr abgelegene Lage recht isoliert. Außer dem Hotel und einem nahegelegenen Restaurant gibt es kaum Möglichkeiten in der Umgebung, sodass man stark eingeschränkt ist. Für längere Aufenthalte oder mehr Flexibilität eher weniger geeignet.

Pros:

Brunch was really great and the price-quality was good for a comfortable, spacious and clean room.
We actually didn't book with the intention of visiting the avifauna park, so it was a nice complementary entry!

Cons:

Not a great connection to public transport to the city centre.

prima uitvalsbasis voor een gezin: Leiden en Den Haag vlakbij, vogelpark om de hoek.
Pros:

erg goed ontbijtbuffet. voor ieder gezinslid wat wils.

Cons:

1 kamer had airco en dat was fijn, de andere kamer niet, en dat was wel vrij warm. Moest het raam openhouden 's nachts.

Très satisfaisant
Pros:

Etablissement propre , literie excellente et surface des chambres généreuse! personnel très accueillant.
Parking gratuit et accès facile. l'entrée gratuite au superbe parc animalier!
Très bon rapport qualité prix

Cons:

Prévoir un minimum de couverts (fourchette, couteau, cuillère) , une éponge serait une bonne chose...
Le bar très cosy ferme malheureusement trop tôt , nous sommes revenus du restaurant et il était fermé à 22h30.
Un service pourrait être assuré jusqu'à minuit ou 0h
