Hampshire Hotel - Babylon Den Haag

Good hotel, good location, good price

• + Right next to the main train station (but no noise), and this is very close to the city centre - location can't be beaten. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Good view across the city from our room (7th floor, I think).
• – No lock on the bathroom door. Perhaps because it's a sliding door?

• – I think the price was very high. And I could not get WIFI in my room.

Good Location near the station

• + Good Location near Station bus and trams Really comfy beds Breakfast nice
• – I have stayed at this hotel before and I thought it had a makeover as for quiet some time it have scaffolding erected. As far as I can see it has not had an upgrade its the same as before , its even got the sink that if you don t know about you hit your head on when you bend over it. I thought they would have got rid of these as a few people have commented on this before, don t let this put you off its still good value for money if you get a special deal.
• * my tip Vapiano Italian ideal families couples and the younger set good value for money gets busy go after 8oclock

superbly located hotel with excellent in-room facilities and comfort.

• + Front desk staff superb. Ambiance and decoration enhances the overall quality of service at yur front desk.
• – Hotel price a bit high - but then were does one get value for money in Europe today?
• * my tip Location plus room comfort superb.

Excellent

• + We were Japanese on first trip Holland . Our stay in your hotel was excellent ,just next- door Central station,in front of beautiful park and clear room and fare and keeping baggage after check-out . All of it impress made us favorably .
• – None

Good hotel let down by its staff

• + Location, and clean - good room
• – Breakfast was poor quality for the price. Reception staff were not efficient - did not manage large queues in the morning very well, and did not take responsibility for the problem.

The best hotel I have stayed at so far in the Netherlands!

Bathroom design flaws.

• + Location Friendly Staff
• – Bathroom wash basin too close to shelf. Difficult to clean teeth. Bath and shower taps difficult to operate. Soap dispenser not well positioned.
• * my tip Take your own soap.

good

• + Het is een mooie hotel en personeel zijn vriendelijk. prima bed het lig lekker. ontbijt is goed
• – parkeer plaats is erg duur

Excellent price, excellent location, excellent service

• + Very convenient to train station and metro - 32 minutes from Schiphol; and very convenient to Den Haag shopping and significant museums; also convenient to other points in Holland ( 52 minutes to Amsterdam central - at least 4 times per hour; Rotterdam via metro, 35 minutes 6 times hourly. Hotel staff very helpful; free internet; restaurant very accessible, good food and reasonable prices. No significant surprises (city tax added to bill in end, but that was communicated at initial reservation)
• – Room temperature variation was limited to a few degrees - for those liking colder rooms for sleeping, maybe a problem in summer only. Cost of telephone usage not fully communicated; perhaps that could be better organized. Although TV internet was made available for free, TV internet usage is clumsy. Also some complaint about lack of train and metro published schedules - but that's a complaint to public transportation system -trains provide lots of frequency, but it is not easy to figure out the network without a laptop.

Excellent apart from the unexplained additional charges.

• – Today I found that the hotel had debited my credit card with $A82 that I can't identify. I paid for the room in advance and I settled all other charges in cash when I checked out. Yhose additioal charges consisted only of one room service sandwich and the city tax. I will telephone the hotel tomorrow to ask why they withdrew $A82 from my account without my consent.

Convenient and utterly uncharming

good location, comfort, minor detail problems

• + My trip was to do research at Nationaal Archief - so location was perfect. Easy to walk to den Haag sights, museums, etc, and of course train to Amsterdam and Schiphol. Quiet room and very good bed, internet, TV.
• – Carpet room 908 needs cleaning or replacement. Various items in room were not plugged in on arrival, like the TV, lamps. These simple things should be checked before a new guest comes in.

Nice hotel and good service :)

Easy and convenient

Good place for the purpose of my visit

• + Close to Den Haag Central station that makes the trip easier when connecting to tram or train to the airport
• – Only Dutch and English TV channels available while they could have at least TV5 Monde TV channel

They forgot to teach the staff good manners

• + Location
• – Ill behaving staff, bad mannered

Very decent place to stay and enjoy home atmosphere

• + I really enjoyed my stay because it was very convenient in terms of my being able to in no time reach all places i was planning to. Specially grateful for screening all my favourite TV channels: all ITVs and V-channel. I wish I would understand Dutch channels.
• – Can't say anything simply because there was none of them

Convenient short stay business hotel.

• + Right next to Central Railway Station in The Hague so only 30 mins by train from Schipol AIrport. The in-house "living room" restaurant is a good choice for eating in The Hague,
• – Still a significant amount of construction work ongoing in the area surrounding the hotel.
