Right in the heart of the party
This was a surprisingly good hotel. Ample water pressure and plenty of hot water for the shower, modern fixtures, etc. The service staff were very good/attentive, excellent English. Convenient location near the cathedral and the University hangouts. There is a big parking lot nearby, but I didn't have a car; the hotel is convenient (10 minute walk) from the train station. Perhaps it isn't this rowdy all the time, but I was there during Euro Cup (and the Netherlands made it to the semis) so there was a lot of late-night noise from the pub patios nearby, up to 3am both nights. It didn't bother me (I'm a sound sleeper) but maybe something to consider if you are in Holland during a major athletic event!

From USA - Great Stay!
Awesome breakfast, friendly and helpful staff, and rooms were quite nice. You feel like each room is a little different and gives you the loft apartment "feel" I would recommend staying at the City Hotel Groningen, lots to do within walking distance.

Central Groningen perfect stay
The reception on arrival was great and the service was excellent - by offering a drink and explain how the hotel operates. The hall (incl. breakfast room) has a home-like feel and has boardgames displayed. You can also play pool in the hall whilst having a drink. Also, you get two access cards to the room which is spacey, modern and clean. No noise was heard during our stay.

lovely but some room for improvement
Hotel location is great, the breakfast was fine too although as a Ceoliac it was a little limited but i didn't starve ! Room was spacious and clean but lighting was poor given the colour scheme was very black. bed was comfy but bathroom smelled a lot of sewerage. DO NOT get a room on the street side if you are a light sleeper like i am as you will get very little sleep with the noise. Room was cold even with the heating on for 3 hrs and very noisy - shame these little things were like they were because the staff are super friendly and professional throughout the hotel and very polite and mannerly.
