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.

Great hotel and breakfast!
We were very pleased with our stay at City Hotel Groningen. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The room was clean and the bathroom quite large. The breakfast was fantastic. The best hotel buffet breakfast we have ever had. My only request would be to put a sheet on the bed under the duvet. The duvet was extremely warm and in summer we found it too warm. Otherwise no complaints whatsoever. Would definitely recommend staying here.

I've stayed here several times before but it's standards have dropped. As an expedia VIP member I did not receive my usual welcome, nor was I given a room upgrade, nor given the free drinks advertized during my stay. The staff are friendly enough, my room was clean but small, the hotel has upgraded the checkin area, but singularly the breakfast service has dropped precipitously. They ran out of juice, cheese and meat on two of my days ( I chose not to eat on the third). I was hounded by different staff for my room number. If they paid half the attention to replenishing breakfast items as they do patrolling guests they would not have these problems. This is not rocket science it is a management issue. I will choose another hotel on my next visit.

Nice great location for walkable sights.
A nice hotel unfortunately being revamped when we visited. Staff seemed more concerned with that and emails than customer service, although they were always polite. The hotel is in a great location but needs to tell you 'parking available' needs prior reservation. Excellent for short walks to city's best sights. The alternative nearby Q Parking was very expensive and you had to pay a full 2 days even when we were 8 hours off the full 48.

Had a comfy bed, clean and well-featured bathroom, friendly staff, and good city center location with much to do and many transport links. The outwards-facing windows were at the top-and-bottom of the wall, and a little small, so would've liked a little more natural light in the room during the day. During our stay, the hotel was being refurbished so there was construction noise throughout the day. Facilities being constructed looked nice though. Air conditioning in the room seemed hard-coded to turn off at 01:00am, which often meant waking up in the heat to turn it back on.
