I truly loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms offer a unique view of the well-kept garden and boast ultra comfy beds, especially on the higher floors. The service was exceptional with staff who truly understand what good customer service means. The location, right in the center of Groningen, provides the best of both worlds, combining beautifully restored palace charm with contemporary style. Although the dining options are not included, the fruit buffet was a nice touch. Overall, a great value for money experience.
