Flonk Hotel Groningen Zuid, BW Signature Collection
Beautiful location and a shuttle is available to and from the hotel to downtown. They have a very nice sized pool too. Food was unfortunately not to my liking.

Mercure City Groningen Martiniplaza Hotel
Fantastic service and nice room. Some weird things like no provided free water and no openable window but otherwise a great experience. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

Marble Times
Lovely accommodation, modern and stylish, had everything you need. Great location not far to walk into main area of town but quiet enough to get a good nights sleep. Cleaner was lovely and very helpful. Would definitely stay again.

The Hogg House
Fantastic room, but this isn’t called Hogg house it’s actually Hotel Groningen- be sure to tell your driver that, or you will get driven around. Very nice place and easy to walk where ever you want to go. Very happy

Hakuna Matata
Property was nice and was clean. We loved being in a place like an apartment with lots of dinning and shopping options nearby. Shower drain was slow and there wasn’t added toilet paper supplied. Everything else was awesome! We would stay there again for sure.
