I’m Eric, your host, and hospitality is my passion. I want every guest to feel genuinely cared for: spotless rooms, crisp sheets and towels, and fresh, well-maintained bathrooms. I prepare each room so your first impression is calm and welcoming. What matters most to me is the quiet of my home. Even if you’re in The Hague for work, your stay should still feel like a small holiday with a peaceful base, unhurried mornings, and a good night’s sleep. I’m always happy to share local tips, from coffee on De Fred to scenic walks to the harbour and beach, or the easiest routes to the Peace Palace and ICC. My goal is simple: that you relax fully, feel at home, and leave already looking forward to coming back. Our reviews reflect the same message.
