Hotel Wahdo, Den Haag

Ibis hotel centre, The Hague, The Netherlands

Advantages: Centre of city, excellent location, bars, restaurants, sightseeing, transport
Disadvantages: Some small rooms, could be noisy near busy road

I have lived in The Hague for about 2 years now. Dutch name 'Den Haag'. Recently I stayed a night in the Ibis hotel, checking it out for some friends who were going to stay there and visit for a week. The hotel is located in the centre of The Hague, near a busy road, lots of shops, restaurants and bars. Perfect for couples, families wanting to be close to the action. Ideal as a base for sightseeing, near old grote church, dutch parliament, ancient buiildings, galleries, tram and bus stops. You may want to request a room on other side of hotel away from road if you are a light sleeper. The hotel itself is quite modern with a large open plan bar and reception area on the ground floor. Comfortable leather seats and sofas. Lifts and stairs then go up to the restaurant and rooms. The eating area on 1st floor. I had breakfast which ...

Review of Ibis Den Haag Centre, The Hague

The Giant's Den

Advantages: huge play area
Disadvantages: Expensive

Giants den Huge warehouse on the easily found Team Valley trading Estate, this has been opened a few years now, and is usually busy?one of those places to go to when it's raining and you need something to amuse the kids. The whole area is divided into sections for under 2s, which is basically ball pools and Little vehicles to drive in a specially enclosed area, an area for under 5s, which is more of the same but with some slides and climbing frames added, and then there is the real "I am" things. These include a giant slide 3 storey climbing frame, as many nets and tunnels as you can negotiate, basketball area (there are coaching nights), PS2 and x box areas complete with some of the latest games and a mini village with small road system. Definitely something for everything if nerves can take it!! PARTIES We have. Over ...

Review of The Giants Den

Will you make it out of the Dragons' Den with your dignity intact

Advantages: Great show, variety of judges with different personalities, great presenting and narration.
Disadvantages: None

Dragons Den is shown on BBC2 and has five judges who are Theo Paphitis, James Caan, Deborah Meaden, Peter Jones & Duncan Bannatyne who between them are worth over 1 billion pounds. The show is hosted by Evan Davis. The concept of the show is very well thought out but also quite simple. Entrepreneurs will enter the Dragons Den, have a quick chat with Evan Davis to explain what they are producing or what their idea is and then they will be sent through to the Dragons' Den. They will pitch their product or service to the Dragons and then they will ask for a certain amount of cash for a percentage stake in their company. It is then up to the Dragons to ask questions about their product or service and test things out and advise whether or not they think the product or service is viable and then they will say whether they want to purchase ...
