A brilliant setup, very well thought out. The only thing that I should comment on is that they should have told me to bring my own towels. Unless it was in the small print, I did not realise. But drying yourself with a pillowcase is not too bad :). I will certainly recommend Jorplace to anyone who is travelling the The Hague and would not hesitate to stay there again (but this time I will bring a towel).

Checkin closes at 10, so make sure you get there before then, or you're walking back into town, as public transport stops as well. Otherwise, a very cool place. We hung out in the bar and chatted. The beach is close by, and it's easy to get into town and to make a day trip into Amsterdam.

It was a nice place. Lots of charcter. The staff were friendly. The beds are small and in my dorm the stacked them 3 high. I was on the bottom and hit my head alot. The chef was a really nice guy with an awesome personality. Even though you pay for your breakfast there it was the best I had in any hostel. It's real close to the beach only like a 3 min walk. You have to put on your own sheets and they don't carry change for your deposit, it gets really loud at night to. But in all a nice place.

A new chef has just started working there and the food is excellent. Although the hostel is a bit outside the city centre, it's really near the beach so when the weather is better I can't imagine a better place to stay in Den Haag.

Absolutely not value for money. When we booked, breakfast is included but pay 3 euro for a better one. Turn out no breakfast is provided and need to pay 3 euro to order a breakfast. The part about breakfast on the brochure is deleted. Cant bring food and drink to the hostel, most ppl booked hostel bcoz they're in budget, it is unreasonable not allowing food from outside. The table inside dropped suddenly and hurt my foot, afraid to tell the staff as 20 euro deposit is kept in case any damage.

Jorplace hostel is definitely a hippie. At checking-in the waiting time was long. When was finally my turn, i got wrong key cards. In the morning, when trying to get breakfast and check-out, waited more than 30 min for the staff to find the key to the kitchen and then it turned out our deposit of in total 40 euros was gone - there had been a party a night before. In the end we did get a sandwich and a cup of coffee for 5 euros, and our deposit back, but it all took around 1.5 hours.

It's convenient to get to the beach. The rules on the wall are not so comfortable, although the real experience is quite better. I booked a 6-person room but nobody else lived there the two nights, that's good for me beacuse the room is small……

Overall it was a good hostel. Very chilled, staff are friendly, great kitchen. Only criticism it did accept large groups of bucks party which does kill the atmosphere a bit in the weekend. There's not much to do around the town apart from the beach. Can hire a bike and The Hague is not too far, but good for a break and to do nothing.

The bathroom and the toilet were not clean enough at the moment of our stay. No lockers.

Hi Mariia, Thank you for your reply! We're sorry to hear that our bathrooms and toilets were not clean enough. We will take you're review with us and inform our staff. Concerning the lockers this is strange and unfortunate as you stayed in room 2 which is our room that have lockers in the room, there were as well lockers next to your door in the hallway. Padlocks were for sale at the reception. In case anything is not at order then you can always contact someone from the reception ;). Wish you all the best. Kind regards, Jorcrew Ika

Close to Scheveningen Beach and easy to reach from Den Haag by tram, this is a nice and safe hostel with a lovely common room/bar and outside fireplace. We stayed in the 24 bed dorm which was all right - the beds are in angular corners that allow for some privacy. Definitely enjoyed our stay and will come back. Many thanks to Yvonne from the Delft hostel for the warm welcome on Queen's Day!

SOOO DISSAPOINTED! And warning: there is NO POOL! (even though it says under amenities that it has an 'indoor pool,' 'outdoor pool,' and 'swimming pool'). This is the place to be if you want to be up all night drinking and doing drugs. We did not feel safe walking to the bathroom in the evening, as you have to walk through a dark staircase with random drunk people bumping into you. The overall feel of this place: SCARY

Very friendly staff.

The staff was nice and helpful and the hostel is a cozy surfer-style place super close to the beach of Scheveningen. We stayed in the twin room and had the uppermost floor to ourselves most of the time (offseason). Good guest kitchen which provides anything you need! Towels were not included, but a map of Deen Haag costs 50 cents less than at the tourist office. The only bad thing was that the internet didn't work sometimes 'cause the guest limit was reached. I'd definately recommend this place!

The directions on the website are incorrect if you are coming from Hague Central Station as tram 16 no longer stops at Buitenhof due to roadworks. If you are coming from Amsterdam I would recommend getting off at HS Deen Haag Station (which is before CS anyway) as it is opposite Kneuterdijk on tram 1. I have stayed in nicer dorms for the price I paid but the main thing about Jorplace is the common room, which is the best I've stayed at. Welcoming, good vibe, bar, pool, Foosball etc.

We only stayed one night, but from just one night, our experience was good. Great location, very close to Scheveningen beach, comfy common area with a nice fire to keep us warm. The funky art and the VW bus in the garden gave it a nice unique touch.
