The Hague combines art and political history with a visit to the North Sea. Treat the centre and Scheveningen as two separate parts of your stay. Check your hotel location carefully too: the City Center hotel is in The Hague, while Grand Winston is in Rijswijk. Current access matters, as Binnenhof renovation and museum closures can affect the day.

01Grote Marktstraat in central The Hague
The City Center hotel suits a stay focused on central streets, shopping and culture. Its address directly on Grote Marktstraat puts the shopping street at the centre of your location choice. It is the central The Hague address when comparing the two options with Grand Winston in Rijswijk.
Hotel details and booking
02Rijswijk, Generaal Eisenhowerplein
Grand Winston is in the separate municipality of Rijswijk. Meeting rooms and a rail connection to The Hague give the stay a regional focus. It suits appointments in Rijswijk or a regional base, with a separately planned journey for visits to The Hague’s centre.
Hotel details and bookingThe Mauritshuis can anchor an art-focused trip. Check opening, exhibition access and individual works before making a particular painting the deciding reason for your journey.
Scheveningen changes the pace after the centre, with beach and boulevard offering space to walk and look out to sea. Allow a separate journey rather than treating it as a passing detour.
Compare The Hague City Center with Rijswijk against your actual destination. Appointments in the Plaspoelpolder call for a different starting point from a mostly central sightseeing stay.
The Hofvijver offers an outside view of the historic government district. The Binnenhof is under renovation, so free access through courtyards or buildings cannot be assumed. Plan your walk around current routes and consult information about the renovation project if you want to understand the work.
The Mauritshuis is a painting museum beside the Hofvijver. Plan a focused art visit once current opening is confirmed. Check published closure dates; individual famous works may also be absent temporarily. An exterior view can still be part of your walk without relying on seeing a particular painting.
Beach, boulevard and pier make Scheveningen the maritime counterpart to the centre. Choose a manageable stretch for a first visit and adjust your clothing and time outdoors to the weather. A coastal walk does not require a midsummer beach day; check individual attractions and places to eat separately.
Begin with an outdoor walk by the Hofvijver, following current routes around the Binnenhof construction area.
Visit the Mauritshuis only after confirming it is open. During closure, allow more time for the city walk and an earlier journey to the coast.
Travel to Scheveningen and choose a beach or boulevard walk. Plan the return to your actual hotel location, The Hague or Rijswijk.
Choose the correct hotel address first: Grote Marktstraat in The Hague or Generaal Eisenhowerplein in Rijswijk. Check rail and onward connections to that location. Scheveningen requires a separate journey; from Rijswijk, also plan travel into the centre. Use the full address of your chosen hotel when planning your route.
