Renting in Den Haag: how the market works

The Hague is the only major Dutch city right on the sea, and it shows. Diplomats and expats favour the chic Statenkwartier and Benoordenhout near the dunes; Scheveningen and Kijkduin draw those who want the beach on their doorstep. The centre and lively Zeeheldenkwartier suit younger urban renters, while Laak and Transvaal are more affordable.

Prices sit between Rotterdam and Utrecht. In the centre reckon on €1,050 for a studio and €1,350 for two rooms; in the outer districts €925 and €1,175. Three rooms head towards €1,750 and four-plus-room family homes around €2,250.

As the seat of government, home to the International Criminal Court, embassies and many international organisations, The Hague draws a steady stream of expats and civil servants, mostly searching in the free sector, often furnished and at short notice. Good supply is scarce, so being early wins.
