The hotel from the Muntplein

A tower at the present-day location of Hotel de l'Europe was demolished in 1633 and five year later the inn, later hotel, Het Rondeel, was built. This building was replaced in 1895–1896, when the 50-room Hotel de l'Europe, designed by architect Willem Hamer Jr., opened its doors.

Alfred Hitchcock used the hotel just before the Second World War as a location for Foreign Correspondent (1940).
