DISCOVER THE HAGUE
CITY OF ROYALS
The special connection with our Royal family is apparent all over town. A stroll by the palaces, the Palace Gardens and several historic locations almost makes the connection to our Royal family tangible.
RESIDENCE
A stone's throw away from the hotel, you can find the Binnenhof (Inner Court), where the Tower chambers and the Court Pond are located. Stroll around the Binnenhof and admire the historical Houses of Parliament, still in use today.
PEACE & JUSTICE
The Hague is also known as the international city of peace and justice. The formidable Peace Palace was opened in 1913. A few times a year, the Peace Palace opens its doors to the public for guided tours.
CULTURAL THE HAGUE
SHOPPING
A stay in The Hague is incomplete without visiting the exclusive specialty stores in the many welcoming shopping areas, which are abundantly spread around the Buurtschap 2005 quarter and Hofkwartier (Royal Quarter).
LANGE VOORHOUT
The name of Lange Voorhout avenue derives from the fact that it was an offshoot from the Haagse Bos (The Hague forest). This stately, broad strolling avenue is surrounded by rows of impressive lime trees and is a true example of beauty and serenity.
MUSEUMS & THEATERS
The inner-city of The Hague has many museums and theaters. Lovers of art and culture find more than their money's worth here. In the nearby theaters you have your pick of an extensive selection of music, drama, dance and cabaret shows.
EVENTS
With its many events, The Hague's social calendar is bursting at the seams. Dance at festivals like Parkpop and Jazz in de Gracht, or feast your eyes on the spectacular fireworks shows in Scheveningen. A book lover? Head to the literary festival Winternachten or visit Crossing Border, where more than a hundred writers, artists and musicians from around the world come together. There's plenty to savour too. Eastern flavours at the Tong Tong Fair, handy bites from the food trucks of Rrrollend Den Haag, and snacks from every corner of the globe during the Haagse Wereld Hapjes on the Lange Voorhout.
