8/10 Very good

I really liked the cozy rooms and the overall style of the property, but the cuisine needs some work: not only the breakfasts, but also the dinners needs a bit of improvement.

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful hotel, second best I’ve stayed in while in Europe (first is the Artz in Barcelona). Very nice, clean, beautiful rooms, wonderful bar and restaurant. Breakfast was incredible. Nothing isn’t to like!

The room is very spacious and nice design. Good location with reasonable price. The staff are very professional and helpful especially the tall guy with blue jacket in the restaurant who introduced the breakfast buffet. Definitely will come back again!

10/10 Exceptional

Great hotel, fab location, great staaf and really modern. Cant wait to come back. One slight thing the tv in the room was supposed to have chromecast to link your phone to stream but this doesnt work. Said the wifi of the hotel was not the same as the chromecast.
Patrick, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

On the positive side, the room was spacious and clean, which made my stay quite comfortable. Restaurants and shops are also on a walking distance. However, a major disadvantage was the noise from outside. Even with the doors and windows closed, it was quite loud, which made it difficult to get a good night’s sleep. Overall, while the hotel has its merits, the noise issue is something to consider if you're a light sleeper.
Stephanie, 6-night trip

6/10 Good

Fine, modern hotel in Groningen center.

It's a nice and modern hotel - but service is just not their strength. Waited for like ~15 min at the reception while she was just speaking on the phone. This is weird. No one else came, and the reception just let us stand there. In the room, the chrome casting to the LCD TV didnt work (I use this kind of service routinely at hotels). The reception had no idea and the solution was to send a technician to our room - in the evening when you're in bed is not the moment for that. Reception should be trained and educated in basic room amenities and functionality - obviously I dont expect them to be tech wizards but this was not that kind of problem. Anyway - the hotel is in good shape. No major problems but they have no real concept of real service and hospitality. That said - this is common in NL.
