The Nieuw Minerva Hotel This hotel is perfectly centered in the little "city" of Leyden (old English spelling), which history goes back to Roman times 57 AD, but probably before that, because it is situated on the banks of the old Rhine, an ideal place for merchant’s shipping in ancient times.

Positives -- The hotel is located in the middle of old Leiden, which means it is convenient to restaurants and the train station. The lobby is great gathering place to meet people.

The hotel is located right on a bank of a channel. Our room was nice, clean, big, with a view on the river, it´s just few steps from the most beautiful part of Leiden.

Cozy small hotel, recently refurbished. Situated comfortably close to all, the station, the university, the shopping streets (right between Harlemmerstraat and Breestraat. Perfect.

Excellent location, friendly staff, meals great, stayed as part of tulip cycle tour. Very clean and yes it does have steep stairs but it is THe Netherlands so that is to be expected.
