About us
Nice to meet you
After being friends for years, studying together, traveling, and spending many evenings in The Hague city center, we added a new title to our companionship in early 2016: business partners. In the spring of 2016, we founded Haagse Schatten together. Because we simply knew that we had to undertake something together. We wanted to combine our energy and ideals and share them with people. We created a platform for all those inspiring treasures our city has to offer.
Haagse Schatten: a platform for and about The Hague’s treasures. Born out of our passion and love for the city.
Barbara & Marlies
Barbara van Rest
Always positive and cheerful, a bit chaotic, but above all, a huge go-getter who effortlessly gets mountains of work done, that’s our Bar. Additionally, she is the mother of Isabel and Tobias and has been in a relationship with Sebas for quite some time.
Marlies van der Kolk
It’s hard not to get caught up in Marlies’s infectious enthusiasm! Writing is her absolute favorite thing to do, but socializing over drinks comes in a close second. In a relationship with Reinout and mother of Lune and Ninte.
Our team
Marijn Pot
Curious, sharp, and always in the know, Marijn explores The Hague with us in search of the best (beach) bars, cosiest pubs, and finest boutiques.
Eefje van Look
We often say to each other: “Everyone wants an Eefje in their life!” Because we know few people as punctual as our wonderful social media manager!
