Canal house bed and breakfast in Leiden

Huys van Leyden — canal-house B&B

A small bed and breakfast on one of Leiden's prettiest canals, run by hosts who treat guests as visiting friends. Ideal for couples and for travellers who prefer a home to a hotel chain.

Why we like it

Just a few rooms, each with canal or garden views, plus a breakfast table where you get proper advice about what to do that day. Quiet at night despite the central position.

Location and getting there

  • Directly on a 17th-century canal in the historic centre.
  • About 10 minutes' walk from Leiden Centraal.
  • Restaurants, terraces and the Saturday market are around the corner.

Good to know

Small properties like this sell out months ahead for tulip season (late March to mid-May) and around 3 October, Leiden's biggest festival. Book early.
