Hotel des Indes the Hague

Staying at Hotel des Indes in The Hague was an absolute delight from the moment we walked in. The grand entrance and elegant staircase to the first floor set the tone for a truly special experience. We were initially assigned to a room on the top floor, but there was a shower installed directly in the bathtub—quite inconvenient. Thankfully, the staff handled it immediately and moved us to a ground-floor room that was both spacious and beautifully appointed, with a well-designed bathroom. The bed was perfection—firm enough for great back support, yet soft and comfortable around the hips and shoulders. I slept like a baby! What really stood out was the fascinating exhibition on the first floor, detailing the hotel’s history as a former palace and highlighting famous guests who’ve stayed here over the years. It added such a rich layer of character to the stay. Location is excellent, service attentive, and the overall atmosphere is timeless. This isn’t just a hotel—it feels like stepping into history. Highly recommended!

Hilton the Hague

The food offered was quite good, and the ceramic tableware added a nice touch to the dining experience. However, the acoustics in the dining area weren't ideal—there was noticeable echo, which slightly affected the ambiance. In the room, the natural stone tiling in the bathroom had sharp outer edges, so care was needed when walking around. The shower floor was almost flat, making it slippery and potentially risky, especially during use. Additionally, there were no grab bars installed on the walls, which could have provided extra stability for guests who might need it. While these minor issues were noticeable, they didn’t overshadow the overall quality of the hotel. The staff were attentive, the location was excellent, and the room itself was spacious and well-designed. For the price, this remains a strong choice, especially for travelers seeking comfort and convenience in The Hague.
