Hope to visit the NL flowers in early May. Does anyone have a recommendation for a B & B nearby Keukenhof with parking? Thanks: dwe
We stayed in the Huys van Leyden (http://www.huysvanleyden.nl/eng/home-english.html) in Leiden. They have parking, for a fee, like most places. It was an easy 20-30 minute drive to Keukenhof from the hotel. We enjoyed our time there, especially seeing the Molen de Valk windmill (http://molendevalk.leiden.nl/en/homepage/).
The town of Leiden itself was an enjoyable base for driving around the flower fields. We didn't find that many options in Lisse or even close to it. The area is quite small and easy to get around by car, so broadening the scope of your search to other towns in the area will get more results.
You can Google "b&b keukenhof," or use booking.com or tripadvisor.com and put keukenhof as the the destination. In any case, you will have to read the listings to see about parking and its costs.
