Hotel Paleis Het Stadhouderlijk Hof

I stayed here for a rather long time, over 2 months, so was given an apartment room on the top floor. Mind, on one weekend when the hotel was full and I needed to extend my stay, I was moved to one of the Bridal suites, with 4 poster bed and jacuzzi in the room, very nice.

The hotel location is right downtown, and I think, has the best access to all the best restaurants and bars that Leeuwarden has to offer.

Unique Quality: Check out the Bridal Suites, Roms 3 or 8.

King suite in the middle doesn't have a bog jacuzzi!

This hotel is truly beautiful, it has so much grace. When I was a student I worked here for three years cleaning all the rooms in the weekends. The main bridalsuite was a nightmare to clean. It has a jacuzi surounded by mirrors.

The hotel used to be a residence for the royal family, and the suites on the second floor are all named after members of the royal family. The rooms on the thirth floor are named after the 11 cities in Friesland (the province).

If you go to the website you can read the whole (interesting) history of the Stadhouderlijk Hof and all its former residants.

Unique Quality: If you go stay here (or even if you don't) ask if someone can show you around the ground floor. There is a beautiful ballroom, and a few other rooms in old style.
