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.

Stephanie

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
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.

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.
