Central Station, regular connection with Leiden, about 30 minutes.

an hour) and Utrecht (two times an hour), frequent connections. The train
from Paris to Amsterdam usually does not stop in Leiden. You are advised to
change into a national or local train in station Den Haag Hollandse Spoor.

c) by car, from various directions. Parking in the city is difficult, if the
hotel does not have special facilities. Parking in the University building
costs E 2, 90 a day (I need to know at least a week in advance who wishes to
make use of this facility).
