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.

Excellent location

We ate at four of the restaurants across the canal during our stay. Also the historic palace and town center were within easy walking distance. The teams and trains were also close by for us to visit Arnhem, Schevening, and Delph by canal.

What a special treat to stay in this apartment!

This property was so special. It is beautiful, spacious, well appointed and very conveniently located. We walked to everything, had great food options near-by (right across the lovely canal in front of the house) and the hosts were very helpful. I highly recommend a visit to The Hague and a stay in Huygenspark

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.

Beautifully Decorated Flat in the Heart of The Hague

We had a wonderful 10 night stay in this apartment. It is beautifully decorated, comfortable, and well appointed for a long term stay in The Hague. All the amenities are new and work well. The bed and furniture were all very comfortable. It’s in a great neighborhood, the Avenue Culinare, with many fine restaurants and cafes nearby along the canal. It’s close to a tram stop and a short walk to all the sights. It’s very easy to get everywhere from here. There is a lot to see and do in The Hague. We had a wonderful welcome from our hosts Marjan and Dino, who were always available if we had any questions. They are the kind of hosts that make these stays special, and we really appreciated their hospitality. Thank you Marjan and Dino! This is an excellent apartment, and we look forward to returning on our next stay in Den Haag.

We fell in love with this charming apartment just steps from a lovely canal in a quiet neighborhood

Marjan and Dino’s apartment was everything we could have hoped for and more! Marjan’s correspondence prior to our arrival was wonderful. Dino met us at the apartment and explained everything to us and pointed out restaurants across the canal. They had very kindly left a bottle of wine to welcome us. The Den Haag HS station is only a 5 minute walk and most museums are 15 minutes away. The apartment itself was lovely and very well-appointed. My husband and I are artists and I was formerly a designer and we adored the decor. We wish the weather would have been nicer so we could have used the cozy outdoor patio. The apartment was very quiet and the bed was super comfortable. We loved the fact it was located in a residential neighborhood and not a touristy part of the city. The restaurant across the canal, Kaai 13, was so good we had dinner there two nights. We absolutely loved every minute at Marjan and Dino’s wonderful apartment and highly recommend it!

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.

Alles ist zu Fuß oder per Fahrrad erreichbar. Wir haben unser Auto die gesamte Zeit nicht gebraucht. Mit dem Fahrrad ist man schnell in Scheveningen, in Delft oder auch in Leiden. NatĂŒrlich auch innerhalb von Den Haag mit vielen SehenswĂŒrdigkeiten. Das Appartement im Kanalhaus von 1680 hat natĂŒrlich seinen besonderen Charme. Wir habe unseren Aufenthalt genossen.

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.

Den Haag

Unser eigentliches Ziel war Rotterdam, aber wir hatten dort keine so schöne Unterkunft wie die in Den Haag gefunden. Die aus einem Wohn/Ess- und einem Schlafzimmer nebst Bad bestehende Unterkunft befindet sich in einem typischen alten GebĂ€ude an einer Gracht. Von der kaum befahrenen Straße aus betritt man den direkt den Wohnbereich, dessen eine Wandseite sehr stilvoll mit einer schwarzen Schrankwand verkleidet ist. GegenĂŒber steht ein Klavier, das dem Raum eine besondere Note verleiht. Schlafzimmer und Bad sind funktionell eingerichtet. Hervorragend ist die Lage der Wohnung. Am gegenĂŒberliegenden Ufer befinden sich diverse Lokale, in denen man bei schönem Wetter unmittelbar an der Gracht sitzt. Zum Binnenhof, dem Mauritshuis und der FußgĂ€ngerzone mit GeschĂ€ften sind es zu Fuß 10-12 Minuten. Nahe liegt auch der Bahnhof Hollandspoor, von dem aus man Delft und Rotterdam in kurzer Zeit erreicht.
