History
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).
