Is Residenz a hotel? A bed and breakfast?
It’s a question many of our guests ask. With just four suites and two apartments, we are among the smallest hotels in The Hague. Yet Residenz is larger than most B&Bs.
We are something in between. A hybrid, offering the best of both worlds
The comfort and refinement of a boutique hotel: Spacious and elegant rooms, privacy, stylish interior design, high-quality amenities, and high speed Wi-Fi
combined with the warmth and charm of a B&B: Personal service, insider tips, genuine hospitality, and every morning a fresh homemade breakfast.
Residenz, that’s who we are. And we are dedicated to making your stay in The Hague truly exceptional.

Booking directly with us? Then we promise you the best rate. You can cancel free of charge up to 24 hours before the day of arrival. And only when you book here: breakfast is included.
Many of our guests share their experiences in online reviews, and their kind words have earned us several well-regarded awards.
Even more important to us is hearing from you directly. Your thoughts and suggestions help us continually refine our service, and we truly appreciate every piece of feedback — it allows us to make your stay even more memorable.
We believe a hotelroom should be a convenient place to live while you are away from home. Therefore Residenz has spacious rooms (35 m2+), big comfortable beds for the best possible sleep, a table with two chairs so you can properly work and eat, a sitting area with armchairs or sofa to relax and windows you can actually open for fresh air.
You are looking forward to enjoy the highlights of The Hague and Scheveningen beach. But you don’t want to be in a hotel in the middle of the touristic bustle? Then Residenz is probably the right place to stay. Our hotel has a stately location in one of the finest neighborhoods in The Hague. Residenz is still just 10 minutes away from the main attractions and the coast.

Residenz is located on the Sweelinckplein, in the heart of Duinoord.
This charming district was developed from 1891 onwards, originally intended to welcome repatriates returning from the Dutch East Indies. Our house was completed in 1895.
As a hotel-pension, it offered accommodation to those arriving in The Hague to arrange formalities — often serving as their first stop before finding a permanent home. Under the name “Pension Zwart,” it welcomed guests until the 1950s.
Before we transformed it into a boutique hotel, the residence was home to the Spanish Consul-General. Today, we feel privileged to honour its original purpose: offering warm hospitality to visitors of The Hague and making them feel truly at home in this beautiful city.
