Reviews and Ratings
I had a fantastic stay at the hotel, with clean and comfortable rooms and super friendly staff. The dining experience was good, but could be improved with more breakfast options. The location was perfect, and the facilities were enjoyable. Great value for the price.
The hotel offers well-designed and rather hip rooms that are stunning and soundproof, although the AC unit can be noisy. The service is professional, with exceptional customer care, but there are some areas for improvement like removing used items promptly. The location is excellent for sightseeing in Groningen, with modern interiors and great soundproofing. The dining experience is tasty, although lacking some variety in pastries and juice. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few minor room and service issues to consider.
The hotel is in a fantastic location in the center of Groningen, with good soundproofed windows and a very modern interior. The rooms were in top condition and exactly as shown in the pictures, but the AC unit was pretty noisy. The service was exceptional, with professional and friendly staff offering top-notch customer service. The dining experience, while not my favorite compared to other hotels I've been to, was in excellent quality. The facilities were well-maintained and added to the overall positive experience.
Staying at this hotel was a real treat! The rooms were spacious with a large bathroom, and the morning breakfast was a cut above the rest. The French balconies provided a great view over the bustling main square, though the AC unit was a bit noisy. The soundproof rooms added to a peaceful stay.
The hotel offers a kind of Japanese-inspired, minimalistic design in the rooms, which were very comfortable and extremely clean. While the lack of a separated area for the bath and shower might be a drawback, bringing your own hairdryer is recommended for a better experience overall.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms, though a bit tight, were well-designed, practical, and very comfortable, plus the market's side location was convenient. The service, especially from Jelle, was super friendly and top-notch. The hotel's central location made sightseeing easy, though the hotplate fat at the dispensing bar was a minor inconvenience.
