About this property

Gorgeous canal house in The Hague city

Enjoy all the pleasures of this spacious, quiet and delightful canal house in the centre of The Hague’s city life. A central location, on the most beautiful canal of The Hague, also known as 'Avenue Culinair' due to the many charming high quality restaurants situated here. The city centre and the international train station can be reached within a five minute walk. Numerous shops, boutiques, restaurants and cafes are just around the corner. All this makes the house a unique place to stay.

The picturesque ground floor apartment is very tastefully furnished including a sofa bed for one extra guest or two small children, piano, flat screen TV, fridge, washer and dryer, iron and coffee maker. The apartment also has a spacious kitchen including a dishwasher, a bathroom with a rainshower and a separate toilet. Then there is a roomy bedroom with lots of cupboard space that opens out onto the little patio where you can sit when the weather is nice. A gorgeous and comfortable home.

This apartment is an ideal expat apartment since all facilities required for making your life comfortable during your stay in The Netherlands are provided. The apartment breathes a delightful Dutch atmosphere, which makes you feel at home straight away.

The Neighbourhood
For centuries, this neighbourhood is the home and workplace of many artists and free spirits. The house where the philosopher Spinoza lived is just around the corner. Three master painters of the Golden Age, Paulus Potter, Jan van Goyen and Jan Steen lived and worked from the Dunne Bierkade (opposite the apartment), the place where beer was delivered into the city. You can still enjoy a beer here, cosy establishments can be found along the old routes of the canal boats, with appropriate names like De Pakschuit or De Paas. The canals and old avenues are being restored more and more. You can embark on a boot cruise of The Hague or the neighbouring municipalities. Those who like to discover on their own can hire canoes and explore the waterways themselves.

Transport
A 5-minute walk from the international train station. By tram or train you are within 20 minutes by the sea, 15 minutes in Delft, 25 minutes in Rotterdam and 50 minutes in Amsterdam. Not only a perfect location for your visit to The Hague, but also a great base for visiting The Netherlands. Almost everything is a 10-minute walk away, all trams and buses stop in the immediate vicinity. Nearby you can also rent a bike. The Peace Palace is a 10-minute bike ride and Scheveningen beach is just 20 minutes away.

Within 5 minutes you will be in the shopping area and in 10 minutes at the King's work palace, the government buildings (Binnenhof), Mauritshuis, Escher Museum, the antique market at the Lange Voorhout (every Sunday). Do not forget to look at The Hague town hall (architect Richard Meier) commonly referred to as the Ice Palace, which also houses the public library and tourist information. And do not forget to go for a drink in Bleyenberg's rooftop bar, a cafe restaurant with spectacular views over the city.

Lovely place in The Hague!

This is a lovely spot to stay - so historic, well laid out and so close to everything we needed. Dino and Marjan were able to let us check in early which was so kind. The train station was close, grocery store was close, the restaurants across the canal were lovely and being on the canal was super cool.

Fantastic location

Right on a canal in a great part of Den Haag. My husband and I stayed here with our two children. We loved the location with its close proximity to many restaurants, stores and China town. The bathroom was lovely and the beds were comfortable. I really loved the little courtyard for a cozy place to sit outside and chat at night. We would definitely stay here again.

Central Canal House In The Hague

Marjan & Dino are friendly and accessible hosts. We were welcomed at the property on our arrival. The apartment is situated on the bottom floor of an old canal house in a historic street. It is close to the HS train station, the tram stop and the bus stop. It is easy to walk to central Den Haag with all it has to offer. The public transport makes it easy to explore the surrounding area and even the beaches.

Excellent location in Den Haag

The property is in an excellent location, 10 minutes walk from the train station and about 20 from the city centre and the market. There are also some good restaurants nearby. The communication with the owner and the check-in and check-out process were very easy. The furnishing and kitchen equipment is more limited than in some properties we have stayed in, but perfectly good for a weeks stay for two.

Perfect location, lovely apartment

We loved our stay here. It was so close to everything and a beautiful apartment. The listing said two bedrooms, but it's really a one bedroom with a (VERY comfortable) sofa bed in the living room. There is just a curtain between the living room and the bedroom in case noise/privacy is a concern for you. I highly recommend this host and apartment.

Amazing apartment in perfect location

We stayed for 6 nights. The apartment had everything we needed for a wonderful stay. Did appreciate having access to a washer/dryer as we were finishing up a 3 week trip. Central to everything we needed. Our hosts were attentive and always available if needed. Checked in on us regularly. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for a stay in Den Haag. 2 thumbs up. 5 stars.

Fantastic!

Lovely little place, with everything you need to enjoy your stay. Dino and Marjan were perfect hosts. Communication was fab, Marjan replying very quickly to all my questions. Location is spot on, with the trams and central station with in very easy walking distance. (Note to future guest's, turn left when you come out on to the street from the main train/metro station). There are lots of places to eat, shopping and a short hop on the number 1 tram, will take you straight to the beach. You don't need to buy an ov chip card, you can simply use your own debit/credit card to tap on and off the trams (remember to definitely tap when you get off!) I'm sure you won't be disappointed with this place, so don't delay....book it today!

Lovely Canal view apartment!

The host, Marjan was not available when we arrived so her husband, Dino greeted us. Because we were arriving in The Hague early they graciously let us store our luggage in the apartment until we could move in. Dino was great and gave us a tour of the apartment. And recommendations of things to do in the neighborhood. We loved the apartment, so nicely furnished and decorated. Beautiful antique furnishings and a beautiful, comfortable bedroom! It had a small patio off the bedroom which was nice in the mornings. The location was fantastic with good restaurants right across the canal and a historic brewpub serving drinks on a floating canal boat! The apartment had everything we needed for our stay. We both loved it and would definitely return!

Cozy apartment in wonderful location

We were very pleased with our stay. The location could not be better, and Marjan and Dino were helpful and very prompt to respond to any questions we had. The kitchen is well equipped, the shower is wonderful, there is a grocery store just around the corner, and while there was some street noise on weekend nights overall the apartment is very quiet. It was a great place to stay. This is an ideal apartment for a couple. For three people, there are some points about the layout that are worth considering. The third person sleeps on a fold-out bed right by the door onto the street, which means the living room isn't usable as a living room while that bed is made up. The shower and toilet can only be reached through the bedroom, so if the third person needs to get up in the night, s/he has to walk through the bedroom. And there's no door to the bedroom -- just a curtain between it and the kitchen, which lets through a lot of light if anyone wants to stay awake after the others. This arrangement worked just fine for us, traveling as family and used to being in close quarters with one another, but some people could find it off-putting. For us, however, the lay-out was only a minor inconvenience and we loved the apartment and loved our stay there!

Great flat! Great location!

Visited for a week early May with my aging (70+) parents and needed a unit that didn’t have lots of stairs. The flat was in a great location: very easy walk to city center and museums and close to groceries and all the amenities. The location directly on the canal across from great restaurants and pubs was also a plus. We were able to hire a boat for a canal tour and bikes to rent were within a block. The Haag HS train station is within walking distance, and light rail is only a few blocks away. They also have nearby parking for a low cost which made it very easy to take day trips. The flat itself had everything we needed with great character! The listing said two bedrooms which was not accurate but the three of us made it work. There is one bedroom and a futon in the shared living/kitchen area. With the futon set up with a very comfortable mattress, there isn’t really usable living room space. I would say the flat is good for a couple, or couple with one or two children. It’s not really ideal for more than two adults. The owners were very receptive to communication before and during the trip. They made everything very easy. I would definitely recommend this unit to couples or young families looking to experience downtown canal life in Den Haag!
