Van der Valk Leeuwarden exceeded our expectations. The hotel is modern, elegant, and beautifully maintained. Our room was spotless, spacious, and comfortable. The staff were welcoming, professional, and attentive from check-in until departure. Breakfast offered a wide selection of fresh, high-quality food. The facilities were excellent, and the overall atmosphere felt luxurious yet relaxing. We highly recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again.

6/10 Okay

Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Van Der Valk is an upmarket chain of hotels and the ambience was certainly classy, however only skin deep. The charging posts are ‘Ecotap’ branded but there is no such app in the UK Apple App Store. Octopus Electroverse app claims to be able to connect to them but none of the charging posts numbers match with any in the app. When the correct post was finally located in the app, the session repeatedly failed to start. The comfort room was advertised as having a separate bedroom (ideal for two adults and a kid) but it did not. The balcony runs uninterrupted across the front of all rooms, giving strangers access to look into your room (and open it if you forgot to lock the balcony door) and is intended for smokers to use to smoke outside rather than in-room. The toilet is in a separate room to the bathroom (good) but doesn’t contain a sink to wash hands after use (bad). The threshold to the bathroom had dirty marks across it and these were not cleaned away during our two night stay. Overall, I am giving this hotel an average score due to its poor design and impossible to use EV chargers.
