Have stayed here many times. Convenient, perfect location and surroundings to relax and meet with all the family who live locally in Oegstgeest. Staff welcoming and very helpful. Handy bus service just outside with transport into Leiden.
The staff was so friendly and always helpful. The rooms were small but beautiful, with a great view over the courtyard. And the best part: for €10, we could rent bicycles for the whole day!
The bed was very comfortable and the property was beautiful for walking. The breakfast was a bit minimal and did not have a toaster. The second day we came on the later side for breakfast and most things were empty (juices,hot breakfast items) which should have been available.
Absolutely worth it. Went in mid spring, and the grounds are gorgeous, lovely to explore or take a stroll in. The area was lovely too - cute little shops, restaurants, and charming old houses on cobblestoned streets. Very peaceful, safe, and quiet. 15 minute walk to the nearest bus station to head into Leiden Centraal (nearest major train station), so transport is still coinvent.

We stayed Thursday and Friday nights. The Thursday was really weird; empty, staff hard to find etc. The room itself is definitely 3* and no more, but the beds/linen etc are clean and good quality. It’s more of a high end conference centre than a hotel. The first breakfast was equally odd, no one from the hotel spoke to us at all!
We ate in Lieden both nights, which with a hired bike was great.
Second breakfast was a totally different experience and what I’d expect from a hotel.
The grounds of the castle (which isn’t the accommodation or dining room etc) were excellent. Well kept and tidy.
Overall, weekend service was great. Mid week less so.

Disappointing stay was
W were glad that we only booked one night. Firstly we mistakenly thought the hotel was within the Kasteel as shown in the publicity photo. We were surprised to find that the hotel was a separate building, maybe we had not read the details carefully rather than having been mislead. The hotel in general was very nice and the staff friendly and efficient. However I had booked one of the more expensive rooms because my wife as pensioners do not get many outings and we particularly wanted a comfortable room that had extra amenities such as a refrigerator, coffee machine etc. We chose the hotel because it was described as dog friendly and we have very small Maltese dog, so when we checked in we were disappointed to be told that we could only have a standard room because we had the dog with us. Considering there was a 25 euro charge and we were denied the room of our choice, we were left wondering what the charge was for! We found the standard room very disappointing, and as an ex Airline pilot have seen more than a few, and this was amongst the most uninspiring. It was dark, dull, no curtains, only a roller blind and in almost all respects very uninspiring. On the good side, it had a nice tv and internet worked well and the bathroom was clean with a very powerful shower. From the website photos the superior room look very nice and might have been more acceptable,but despite beautiful grounds around the hotel and very nice common rooms we would not consider revisiting.
Absolutely stunning scenery in the countryside to go with quiet, quaint hotel rooms. The escape from loud, busy city life was wonderful and the staff there was welcoming and accommodating. The breakfast buffet had a little bit of everything as well. Wish we had stayed longer and will definitely be back!
Check in process took time. I unfortunately had very noisy neighbours at after 11pm and had to get dressed and complain to reception. It was resolved eventually but not the best nights sleep
Sehr schöne Lage. Die Zimmer sind einfach, aber gut. Das Personal ist sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Genügend Parkplätze

Jättetrevligt hotell men slitna rum
Allt var toppenbra förutom rummet som var mörkt och slitet. Uppfyllde inte förväntningarna utifrån bilderna. Ett av rummen var dessutom så kallt att jag fick be om extra filtar för att kunna sova.
Habitacion funcional, lavabo en forma de cuenco, fatal para gente con lentillas, ducha agradable. Buena cama. Sin aire acondicionado. Hotel ubicado en bonito parque con castillo. Ruidoso, con gente pasando en la noche y cerrando puertas de golpe muy de mañana
Eine wunderschöne Anlage um die Seele baumeln zu lassen und zu entspannen. Ganz toll wenn man Fahrräder dabei hat oder leiht und Touren ins nahegelegene Leiden oder dem Strand unternimmt.
Das Frühstück hätte ein klein weniger variantenreich sein dürfen.
