I stayed here twice now, on both occasions the service provided by the staff was great, the room was spacious, comfortable and clean, and the restaurant downstairs provided good breakfast and dinner. I especially appreciated the early check-out option.

LABnul50 Groningen, hotel in Groningen

This unique design hotel offers rooms with themed décor featuring movements from art history.

I like the concept of local artists designing rooms. Also, the location was ideal for me: close to the city center and train station, in a neighborhood with nice parks and restaurants, and well-connected to the university campus. The staff was also very friendly, and the breakfast was nice.

Groninger Museum has one of the finest modern art exhibitions in Northern Europe and Oosterpoort plays host to cultural events from around the world. Students play a role in defining modern Groningen, giving this city a reputation for a vibrant nightlife.

    Groningen is a beautiful city , I would prefer it to Amsterdam . It is a nice size, there's loads to see and do. The Groninger Museum always has terrific exhibitions and the building itself is amazing. The Ship Museum is excellent also . There is a lovely ambience with many cosy cafes and bars and great eateries such as the Drei Gezusters. We had great takeaway food at the Vis Markt , the Kibbeling is very tasty and the portions everywhere are generous. As it is a University city , there is a lively student atmosphere, We walked everywhere as everything is accessible. It is a wonderful spot for a city break.

    We liked this time a lot because of the boat tour through the town and our visit to Groninger museum with the Rolling Stones exhibition. We had diner at the Branderij and at Eetcafe de Slingerij. Both good quality for a fine price and kind staff.

    Groningen is a lovely univeristy town easily reached by train. Taking a walk through the center to visit the almshouses (there is a good guidebook for that) and their gardens was a pleasant way to get to know the city. A big plus is that there is no mass tourism as in Amsterdam, mostly day trippers from the area or just across the river from Germany.

    I would definitely recommend Groningen as a place to visit.

    I would definitely recommend Groningen as a place to visit. It is a little gem. It’s easily reached from Schipol airport by a direct train that takes just over 2 hours. I only discovered it as I found Dutch family that live here. Definitely recommend as a change from Amsterdam. The town has plenty of shops and restaurants, museums and a canal. Everything is accessible by foot or local buses. Just be aware of the cyclists.

    Groningen is a very lovely smaller town with a nice old town surrounded by water canals. In the city I spent most of my time at a conference at the university, whose campus itself is very interesting and I had the opportunity to see the particle accelerator there as part of the excursion - certainly very interesting for those interested in (bio)physics and (radio)medicine. In my free time I walked through the old town and around the canals, which was very nice and romantic. The same could be said of the walking path from the city to the university area, which led through beautiful, almost wild countryside along horse paddocks, one arm of the river, among meadows, etc. The town also offers great gourmet experiences. I was only able to spend a few days in the city, so unfortunately I didn't have a chance to explore the surrounding area.

    Breakfast was lovely, good variety and plenty of each option it seemed. The room itself was very dated but not unclean or uncomfortable, quite adequate for our needs. The location was amazing, right in the city centre, though it was a little hard to find the parking if you’ve never driven in the city before, or aren’t used to driving in the Netherlands in general. The staff are so friendly, helpful and really the soul of this hotel. It would have gotten a lesser rating without them.

    “UP SIDE DOWN MOTEL” The fotos are tricky on the website. it is ONLY 2 floors , first and second floor and each floor has 18 room, the whole building is for Apartments only , so the real rating is 2 stars hotel. The reception is a small counter inside the restaurant, NO LOBBY without facilities , swimming pools, etc. The reception is in floor 3 and the rooms in floors 1,2 only and few in ground floor next to the street. Location is very bad

    The breakfast was excellent since the restaurant is merged with Martini Hotel. A bonus, I guess. The hostel itself provided a microwave for you to warm up your food. Located in the heart of the city made it easier for me to discover the entire scenery. The hostel is also very accessible since there are plenty of bus stops. It is excellent for you if you're looking for a place to just put your luggage and leave to hustle.

    This apartment was amazing, clean, great size, great location, well maintained, modern everything you would need for a really comfortable stay in Groningen. The staff were courteous, respectful and helpful. Highly recommended. The location by the canal was beautiful and about 15 minutes walk from the station.

Location only 5 minute walk to city center, discount for the parking garage was great and only a 5 minute walk to hotel. Would definitely stay there again when in Groningen.

    The room is beautiful with a great view of the Martini Tower. The hotel is located in a central area but on a quiet street. I forgot something in the room and got a call from reception only a few minutes after I left saying that housekeeping had found a pair of trousers. I was actually positively surprise that they reached out. :-)

    We received a warm welcome at the Student Hotel Groningen. We were surprised with some candy in our room. The bed was very comfortable and the room had a nice size. A modern bathroom and nicely decorated. A big plus for us was the ping pong table downstairs, some extra entertainment when we came back from our Christmas dinner.
