Enjoyable Interesting hotel very central to everything and it had lots of character. Fairly quiet.
Pros:

Good rooms two of the four were very good size
One should have been single beds but was a double and two were at the back which was not such a nice view and not so big
Breakfast excellent and catered for Gluten Free diet
Staff were excellent advising us where to go with kids

Cons:

Four rooms at the front

Grossly Overpriced with Absurd Policies and Hostile Staff, Location Does Not Justify This Nightmare
Pros:

Close to city center, and train sitation.

Cons:

We stayed at Hotel Prins Hendrik as a group of 4 for 3 nights and 4 days. Given the exorbitant rates which are far higher than many other options in the city, our stay was an absolute disaster. While the hotel is close to the central train station and city center, prime location cannot compensate for the total lack of hospitality, dreadful service, and nonsensical rules.

Ridiculous Key Policy & Unattended Reception: In a setup I have never seen anywhere else, our group of 4 was issued only a single room key card. Worse still, the hotel demands you hand in the key at the front desk every time you leave. Every time we returned, the reception desk was deserted, forcing us to stand around waiting for minutes just for someone to show up and hand us our key.

Hostile Night Staff & The Hot Water Incident: The staff's attitude was exceptionally cold and dismissive, treating guests like unwelcome intruders. Because the room provided no kettle, we went down to the bar at night simply asking for a bottle of hot water and two tea bags. The night staff glared at us with utter disdain—as if making an alien, absurd demand—and then had the nerve to charge us extra just for plain hot water.

Dreadful Breakfast: The morning buffet was a complete joke. There was practically nothing decent to eat, the selection was bare-bones, and the quality was shockingly poor for a hotel charging premium prices.

Completely Stripped, Smelly Rooms: The rooms lacked the most basic amenities—no kettle, no iron, no hairdryer, no minibar, and not even a single complimentary glass or bottle of water. The room had a persistent foul odor, suffered from awful ventilation, and the Wi-Fi connection was completely dead and unusable.

Paying top-tier prices for bare rooms, inedible food, restrictive key rules, and staff who treat you with contempt over a cup of hot water is unacceptable. Do not be misled by the central location, book somewhere else.
