Leonardo Oranje Hotel Leeuwarden

Leonardo Oranje Hotel Leeuwarden

10/10 Excellent
"Though this isn't a 5-star luxury hotel, it was clear to us there are people behind Hotel Leonardo who really put the effort in with the hotel. First, the location is great, just across from the lovely main Leeuwarden train station and a moment away from the Love Fountain, with its ethereal beauty. From what I understand it is one of the 11 Fountains Project. Best to ask ahead where to find the parking entrance. Once you find this, it's great the hotel has very convenient and secure underground parking. Additional fee. Granted, the hotel is dated, but somehow I felt it was dated in a good, European kind of way. It was spotlessly clean. Our large room with comfortable king bed, good shower and large separate bath and two sinks was very well maintained and many details thought of here. The cleanliness, maintenance, comfort, amenities and great A/C during the HEATWAVE outshone any thoughts of the hotel not being totally up to date. The variety and quality of morning breakfast exceeded our expectations. The friendly woman welcoming guests each morning at breakfast made the mornings extra positive. Service in the evening for drinks was also very good, the whole dining/reception area very large and comfortable. If we had any complaint about Hotel Leonardo, I can't think of it. We had an enjoyable stay. My only regret is not being in the city long enough to enjoy all it offers, including the discovery of the miniature people I understand are hidden in many places."

Van der Valk Hotel Drachten

Van der Valk Hotel Drachten

10/10 Excellent
"​I stumbled upon this place on Expedia while playing a high-stakes game of "where am I driving next in the Netherlands," and it turned out to be the ultimate win. Hands down the best hotel of my trip so far! The place was so clean I’m pretty sure you could eat your breakfast off the floor (though I used the table like a civilized human). ​The absolute highlight? Watching the Dutch squad take on Japan in the World Cup right there in the hotel, cheering alongside the locals. The room itself was immaculate and the bed was dangerously comfortable. A massive shoutout to the rockstar at the front desk—she was incredibly sweet when I arrived, and somehow just as impossibly chipper and helpful when I checked out the next morning. 10/10, would absolutely stay again!"
