This is my second stay at the Parkhotel (the first was in 2006). The pros - the location is great - close to shopping and restaurants; the breakfast room is huge and offers a great selection (although a bit pricey at 19 euros); the rooms are renovated - laminate floors, flat screen tvs, nice all-white bathrooms (note that size of rooms varies quite a bit - I've seen very small - fitting not much more than a double bed - as well as a large suites). Ask for a room on the garden side as a big "con" would be to have a room on the street. Molenstraat is a short street but it has bars (and so patrons who make quite a bit of noise as they leave in the early morning hours - and if they don't get you the birds feeding of the trash from the garbage left on the street will). I've had amazing service from the staff at reception - from dealing with room issues to helping with reservation. They are well trained (or just well chosen when hired). The cons - I guess that depends on the room you get. The rooms can be small; some don't have a bathtub - just a shower; walls are paper thin so if you have noisy neighbors, that can be a problem. I would stay here again.

You are with this hotel close to town center and all the shops (4' walk)
Situated in a small street, the hotel entrance is not really appealing;but you will say to me that the rooms are the most important after the location. I was given a superior double and what a disappointment to see my room located in a corner of the hall on 3rd floor. The bathroom has an inconvenient: the sentence "mind the step" is on the door so you guess correctly that a different level between room and bathroom is existing...in a superior room that is a shame!
the cupboard has a huge iron board inside leaving no more space for your clothes! another shame for the standard of this room
Breakfast is good
If you don't find another 4 star close to center then you can still choose this hotel

My partner and I really enjoy Den Haag, and this hotel is a in great location; we would certainly go to the Parkhotel again. In fact, when we checked out, we mentioned a couple of things we would have enjoyed, such as a room facing the Palace Gardens, and the man on the desk offered to put this preference on our profile for the next time! It was a last lovely touch as we were leaving. The first was an enthusiastic welcome, then a wonderful breakfast buffet and charming service to go with it, and, it's true...proper light in the very roomy bathroom (and even a magnifying mirror for those older eyes)! We were a little bemused by the absence of a single drawer into which we could unpack, and there weren't so many hangers, but I'm quite sure they would have been provided had we asked. It was a minor thing, but it's good to find those niggles or you wouldn't believe all the good things I've said!

There is a really fun bar just around the corner from the hotel, The Cafe de Oude Mol. On Sunday evenings, they do a kind of happy hour, during which they serve soup and nibbles on the house. We heard a terrific jazz singer and the place was PACKED. Another not-to-miss thing to put on your agenda is a visit to Escher in Het Paleis, an exhibition on the life and work of the graphic artist in the old Royal Winter Palace.

Den Haag is around 30 minutes by train from Schiphol Airport. Also note, trains to Gouda run frequently and take around 20 minutes. Gouda has the largest (Saturday) market in the Netherlands, and it's a good one! Be sure to try Gouda cheese with cumin (komijn) and eat some kibbeling (bits of fried fish) and visit Sint-Janskerk, famous for its stained glass.

Well, it said single room on the booking and, for €109, that's what I got. The room was dusty and had no safe but TV and free wifi fine. Shower (no room for a bath) was interesting with the temperature varying from scalding hot to freezing cold for no obvious reason!

Breakfast seemed to take the staff by surprise (no milk and coffee machines not switched on) and, for €20, was not good value.

It's safe and central but you need to arrive late and leave early...
