Although not a large gallery, it holds a high class collection of Dutch and Flemish paintings from the 15th to 18th century. There are 2 floors with 8 rooms on each floor. Room 1 starts with Rubén’s and Room 15 has Vermeer’s works (including Girl with Pearl Earring). In between there are plenty of other old masters to enjoy. I booked my ticket in advance but showed up 30 mins early and was allowed in no problem. Overall a very high quality museum located in the heart of The Hague and a must visit for art lovers.

Loved this museum. Finally saw The Girl with the Pearl Earrings along with various Dutch artists. The inside is fantastic, the house is close to 400 years old! The gallery itself wasn't overcrowded, maybe given I visited in the off season. But all in all, enjoyed the experience.

Nice Museum really taken care of, attentive staff, fluent in Dutch and English. Often a special exhibition part: do not forget to check website and make reservation. Direct connection / by-pass to the nice and good cafe, opposite of the street. Enjoy the good service!

Absolutely amazing place. Knocks spots off the Rijksmuseum. It is cosy and intimate and you don't feel hurried. You get to stand in front of the fabulous artwork without being pushed and shoved by other visitors. At last I got to see The Girl with the Pearl Earring. It was magical. The Loot exhibition was an additional extra which was brilliant. The virtual reality was amazing although I got vertigo standing atop the Brandenburg gate. It was more than well worth the trip from Amsterdam and I cannot praise it highly enough. The staff were welcoming and on hand should you need them. Also, don't forget to visit the William 5th gallery a mere stones throw away which is included in your ticket. Cannot recommend highly enough.

A real must visit if in The Hague. You have to book in advance, and there are options for the main collection and exhibitions. The house itself is very impressive and there are some stunning art works. The Girl with the Pearl Warning is a real high point.

This place is small but the collection is magnificent! There's Girl with the Pearl Earring of course but there are other magnificent paintings too! I love the Rembrandts. I really loved Rubens' Old Woman and Boy with Candles. Also Vermeer's View of Delft. I loved the still lifes too. All in all, really worth the trip

Nice museum..not overly crowded...lots of lovely paintings...not too many paintings so u do not feel overwhelmed. Unable to go to museum store as it was closed. Able to download app and read about painting.

The museum is in a beautiful house, pre ordered tickets is recommended which come with a time slot. There is a lift for good accessibility. The collection is amazing with the Girl with Pearl Earring the star but very many other great paintings.

I feel fortunate to have been able to visit the Muritshuis Museum of Dutch artists. I first encountered Dutch art in Amsterdam Rijek Museum in 2008. It was special to visit Muritshuis and see more exceptional artwork. From Rembrandt to Jan, I am amazed at the paintings. My guide was a friendly, intelligent, and very knowledgeable woman who shared fascinating insights into the paintings and the creators. The Girl with the Pearl is a highlight. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit. While there is an elevator at the entrance, once inside the house, there are grand staircases. The house itself is wonderfully preserved. There is a shop located inside for souvenirs and the jewelry is beautiful.

I got the tram from the Kunstmuseum to the Mauritshuis, and when I arrived the area was a bit of a building site. If you walk around the building site you come to a square full of cafe's and the entrance to the Mauritshuis is on the far side. It was an awful lot busier than the Kunstmuseum and that may explain the surly, unwelcoming staff that work there. If I was rating based on the visitor experience I'd probably have given it a 2 at most, but then you come to room 15. Some picures are so ubiquitous that you become a little blasé about them, but I was absolutely gobsmacked by the 'Girl with the Pearl Earring'. Unlike the Louvre, where the Mona Lisa is behind a screen some distance away from the public, you can get right up close to the 'Girl with the Pearl Earring', and the subtelty of the colours is astounding. I've visited quite a few galleries over the years but this painting really took my breath away. The fact that she shares the room with Vermeers' also stunning 'View of Delft', a couple of fine paintings by Gerard ter Borch and a wonderful 'Brothel Scene' by Frans van Mieris among others makes this one of the world's great rooms of art. There are a few great Rembrandts also in the house, with 'The Anatomy Lesson of Nicholas Tulp' and 'Homer' standing out, along with Jan Steen and other greats of the Dutch Golden Age being represented. It's certainly worth the trip to see the art at the Mauritshuis, but don't expect a warm welcome.
