I lived in the front first floor apartment in the Hotel Plato for an entire summer several years back. It was very pleasant, very convenient, and the people working there are so nice. I really cannot recommend this property enough. First, the rooms are lovely--with comfortable beds, television, a sitting area and a fully equipped kitchen. Also, my room had a terrace which made for very peaceful breakfasts each morning. Second, it is a great location -- particularly (I found) if you are working or taking classes in The Hague. The hotel is very close to public transportation, so it is an easy commute; however, it is far enough away from the working area of the city that it seems more peaceful. It is also great because it is very close to the beach, grocery shopping, restaurants, non-grocery shopping and entertainment. Third, and maybe most important, the owners and employees are extremely nice and accommodating. They helped me so much while I was there. And, I felt that they were watching out for me--which was particularly nice given that I knew almost no one when I first arrived. As a nice addition, they were able to provide rooms for my friends and family when they came to visit.
