About this property
Op 5 Minuten Lopen van het Mooiste wat Leiden te Bieden Heeft
Wij zijn Hans en Marnie van der Velde en zijn de eigenaren van Veldhorst Apartments. Wij zijn geboren en getogen Leidenaars en ons verblijf is gelegen in een pand waar onze familie al meer dan 50 jaar eigenaar van is. In onze straat, de Hugo de Grootstraat, heerst alle rust maar toch ligt het centrum van Leiden op een steenworp afstand. In 2022/2023 is het monumentale pand (uit 1892) volledig gerenoveerd en zijn wij in 2024 gestart met Veldhorst Apartments.
The apartment is heated and features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a fireplace, a coffee maker, and a desk. Change of towels is available on request.

A lovely light filled apartment on the first floor in a really quiet area but just minutes from bars / restaurants & the main canal. Hans & Marnie kindly let us check in early & welcomed us on arrival. The apartment is beautifully presented & surpassed the pictures.
