The Keukenhof Gardens are set to make a huge comeback this year after the difficulties of the last two years. The tulip festival will be bigger than ever and the weather is currently warming up nicely for the spring bulbs. In this guide, we share our tips for finding the best hotels near Keukenhof Gardens for your visit in 2022.
Hotels near Keukenhof Gardens
Keukenhof is located in the town of Lisse in the Netherlands. If you stay in Lisse you could walk the 20 minutes to the entrance to Keukenhof or ride a bike if you have access to one (your hotel might have bike rental). There isn’t much going on in Lisse from a tourism perspective but it’s a convenient place to stay near Keukenhof.
Another popular place to stay near Keukenhof is the city of Leiden. Leiden is a 20-minute drive from Keukenhof Gardens so this is a good choice if you are driving. There is plenty of parking near Keukenhof if you take this route.
However, most visitors prefer to visit Keukenhof on a day trip from Amsterdam. There are plenty of public transport options to get you to Keukenhof from Amsterdam Centraal and it generally takes an hour or so.
