24 hours The Hague

Morning

Start your day nice and quiet with coffee and breakfast outside your door in the middle of The Hague's city centre. Have breakfast at Jamey Bennett's historic Place, for example. After breakfast, take a short walk through the Palace Garden. This beautiful city park is freely accessible but unknown to the general public. A real oasis in the city centre.

Or take a nice stroll through the Hofkwartier, a shopping area full of quaint boutiques with art, crafts and second-hand shops. You will also find the oldest bakery 't Bakkertje here and the hidden Schuilkerk Willibrorduskapel with the Haagsche Broeder Brouwerij.

Lunch

Stay a while longer in the old centre of The Hague. Stroll through cosy streets like Prinsestraat and Molenstraat and settle down at one of the cosy restaurants. Or walk on and have lunch on the Veenkade. Find more great hotspots for a delicious lunch in The Hague here.
