The Hague, Delft and Rotterdam Small-Group Tour (Max. 8 People)
"Breakfast was great! Staff are wonderful, rooms are spacious, beds are comfortable. Good location and walkable to city center.
Only complaint, the lighting in the bathroom and bedroom areas are very dim, so it was hard to put makeup on. Also, I wished they would have mini fridges so we can keep drinks or snacks in the room"
"The hotel is elegant and beautiful. Also is a nice area that is quieter than other parts of the city but still close to many restaurants. Staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. Room was quite clean but some fixtures were a bit dusty. Our room was surprisingly large."
"Staff was super friendly, the rooms are very dark even with all the lights on and the lobby is relatively uninviting. The property location is great as it’s just a short walk to the different tram lines and conveniently located to hundreds of different local shops and restaurants."
"Only complaint was that no rooms were available before 3pm and so there was a long line at 3pm of people trying to check in. Should let people check in as rooms become available as other hotels do."
