Leonardo Hotel Amsterdam Leidse Square

My partner and I decided to stay at Leidse Square because we had such a great experience at the Leonardo Hotel Rotterdam Savoy previously and thought this would be a win. It was a lovely hotel, very cutely decorated with dog, cat and bird photos on the walls, stylish furnishing and an adorable blue bear cushion in the room. I just feel like it simply lacks comfort in a few areas. 1. Toilet paper - is very cheap and not nice to use. 2. Bed - it is two soft mattresses made of faux leather with just a topper, not a proper fitted sheet on top. After 3 nights we both felt achy due to this not being a very supportive bed. 3. Housekeeping - you have to opt in to cleaning via a QR code in the room. I tried to do this on the first day, but it said it could not find my reservation. I just could not be bothered with it and of course suffered the consequences as a result. The hotel industry on a whole since Covid seem to think its acceptable to ask its guests to "opt-in" to housekeeping when it should be a standard. To me it comes across as a cost saving measure by the hotel and an inconvenience to guests. Positives - nice big windows with a view of the canal. There was a small fridge and a nice coffee machine in the room. The location is wonderful, close to lots of shops, restaurants, museum district (just a 10 minute walk away) and most importantly a tram line that makes it easy to get to Amsterdam Centraal in about 20 minutes.

Clean room, staff, and convenient location of hotel.

My place was a shoebox

Room was clean but tiny, no bigger than the bed and a small area to get into a small bathroom. It didn’t really match the photo in any manner.

I enjoyed the stay at their hotel. Rooms are small but if you’re there to spend time out walking and sightseeing those rooms are great for you

Wed site said daily cleaning but it was not . You had to scan the QR code to request for a cleaning. You had to go down stairs to the reception for a new garbage disposal bag. It doesn’t ´provide the service as a hotel should be. It is poor service and doesn’t want to hire staff for cleaning. This is our first time and also the last time that we stayed at this hotel.

Clean room, friendly staff, easy check in.

Very Clean room. Great location in walking distance to all museums.

eclectic decor, clean room, nice and helpful staff, close to airport bus, walking distance from main attractions

Great!

Request a room on the back of the street can be very noisy. Don't forget to ask to service in the room every day. Great stuff and very good location.

good location and friendly staffs

good location and friendly staffs

Our room was very small but clean and we basically just slept there so it was okay. The location and very helpful and welcoming staff were great. If you’re going to keep yourself out touring the city all day then it is a great place at a reasonable price.

Booking through Expedia meant I didn't get all the info

Great hotel and staff.

Rooms are very small. Only for overnight back packers. Not suitable for families with suitcases.

The location of this hotel was great & the customer service was excellent. However, the rooms were a bit small (couldn’t open two suitcases at the same time) and we requested our room be cleaned and it wasn’t (so we had to change our sheets, dispose of garbage, and get new towels ourselves).

My partner and I had a great stay, we really enjoyed the hotel and the staff were very accommodating, would highly recommend and when we return to Amsterdam will stay here again.

Steep stairs to the lobby. Expensive breakfast buffet, room is small but comfortable, good A/C, nice bed but very little room to maneuver around it. Great location for the hotel with a nice comfortable lobby.
