Kurhaus
Historic beachfront hotel with ocean views
The Kurhaus in Scheveningen is an iconic grand hotel and a symbol of seaside elegance on the Dutch coast. Overlooking the North Sea, this palatial building has welcomed guests since the late 19th century and remains a centerpiece of Scheveningen’s lively boulevard. The Kurhaus impresses with its ornate façade, soaring domes, and opulent interiors, making it a favorite subject for photographers and a must-see for visitors to The Hague’s beach district.
Guests and day visitors alike can enjoy the Kurhaus’s sweeping seafront terrace, which offers panoramic views of the beach and bustling promenade. The hotel is renowned for its luxurious spa facilities, including steam baths and saunas, making it a perfect retreat after a day by the sea. Direct beach access allows for easy strolls along the sand, and the hotel’s breakfast buffet—sometimes featuring champagne—adds a touch of indulgence to any stay.
The Kurhaus frequently hosts concerts, galas, and weddings, so some public areas may be reserved for private events. Spa treatments and rooms are in high demand during summer and weekends, so advance reservations are recommended. Whether you’re staying overnight or simply stopping in for a coffee or spa session, the Kurhaus offers a blend of historic charm, modern comfort, and classic Dutch seaside atmosphere, making it an essential stop on any visit to Scheveningen.
