Tucked away near the German border in the north-eastern corner of the Netherlands, Groningen uses its isolated position to forge its own distinct character. The young student population attending the 17th-century University of Groningen complements the historic architecture and famous Dutch canals.

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.

    Really well equipped and very tastefully furnished, spacious apartment. There's even a children's corner with toys. The kitchen area is amazing. Lounge with sofa and chairs and a nice big TV. The host checked us in over the phone and helped fix it so that we could park in the street for free. The location just on the outside of inner Groningen is in perfect walking distance - a minute or two - from the inner city, and the slight distance is actually an advantage in this city full of students and youngsters where a lot is going on.

    Very good hostel double room that had air con and a TV. Although small the ensuite shower/toilet was very good. Hostel included other communal areas and is part of the large Martini Hotel. Was allowed to bring my bike into the room which was a great help. The location was superb in the centre of Groningen. You can also have a reasonably priced breakfast at the Hotel.

    The hotel is very conveniently located close to the city centre. Bus and train stations are within walking distance, as are supermarkets. The kitchen facilities are more than adequate. We had to modify our reservations a number of times during our stay. We found the staff extremely helpful and they went out of their way to accommodate our requirements.

    We had a pleasant stay at NH hotel in Groningen. The room was clean, bright and quiet for the whole stay. Certainly recommended for people that need to visit UMCG, and it is convenient also for visiting the city centre (just 5-10 minutes of walk distance). The staff was available to different requests.
