The hotel is located in a quiet leafy part of town but is close to shopping, restaurants and bars (Noordeinde and Prinsessewal) although it is a 25 minute walk / 10 minute tram ride to the train station. Check-in was friendly and the receptionist was extremely helpful throughout our stay. Our spacious and well equipped top-floor room overlooked the front... More

This is a very pleasant hotel. Not glitzy and modern but clean and smart and much more to our taste. The staff are all very helpful and friendly and being Holland they all speak perfect English. They didn't come out to the car to help with the baggage which I might have expected, but they did offer help later, but... More

Our first staff experience was not positive-he seemed confused and was not helpful with bags, room, parking questions etc etc. Once we arrived in the room, he called to say for 40 euros more we could have a bigger room (the company was paying so we weren't sure how to go about that). The rest of the staff was friendly... More

When our taxi pulled up to the hotel at 930 in the morning, the staff immediately walked out, greeted us and took our bags inside. When we got to the counter our room keys were laid out with our confirmations. That service was typical the entire week I was there - amazing! The bath tubs and daily delivery of bath... More

The hotel is located in a quiet area of the town, ut walkable to the centre in 10 minutes. There are also trams and bus nearby but sufficently far from those trafficn noise. The hotel staff are friendly and I got early check-in around 8am. The breakfast was far too expensive (over 23 Euros) and I did not try. The... More

We stayed at this hotel as a family. Hotel personnel were very friendly and accommodating, but some did not really know how to deal with a young child. For example, the baby bed provided was set up in an unsafe way and when we asked where we could change the baby after having checked out, we were directed to the... More

I arranged for a group of 20 to stay at this hotel on business in late January with an evening buffet dinner. The hotel staff were extremely friendly and accommodating in the run up to the event and responded very quickly to any query. During our stay, the staff were very friendly and attentive - regardless of whether I had... More

I knew this was going to be a great experience when I walked in the door at 10:00, fresh from a trans-Atlantic flight, and was greeted with a smile and a room waiting. The hotel is a very short distance from the Central Station and conveniently located to many of the places you'd want to visit in The Hague. The... More

This hotel excels in ambiance and service. The hotel is in the midst of the embassy district, and reflects the splendor of a bygone era. The rooms are tastefully furnished and decorated. The front desk staff are friendly and helpful and speak more languages than a Berlitz instructor. The restaurant is surprisingly good and is an excellent alternative to "dining... More
