Description

The Hampshire City Hotel-Groningen is located in the centre of this vibrant university city. You will have no excuse to be bored here: both inside and outside of the hotel there is a lot to see and do. The hotel's staff will gladly help you choose between the city's many possibilities. The hotel has bikes to let which costs €5 per day, which will surely come in handy in the bike-friendly city of Groningen. You can reserve the bikes in advance in the hotel.

All of the rooms have been decorated in a modern fashion, and are equipped with a bathroom with a shower and/or bath, and toilet. The rooms are also fitted with air conditioning, a cable television, pay-TV, a telephone, and a safe.

Relax in the hotel's sauna and the Turkish steam bath, or make use of the sunbed (at a charge). Guests can make free use of the coffee machines available on each floor. In the Internet Corner you can sit behind the computer at any moment of the day, free of charge. The hotel's roof terrace offers a lovely view out onto the city. This terrace is also a great venue to host a reception or a party for upto 50 people.

Food and Drinks

Surroundings

The 750-year old city of Groningen has much to offer, also in a cultural-historical sense. At a 5-minute walk from the Eden City Hotel you will find the 'Prinsenhof' (Prince's Courtyard) with its 'Prinsentuin' (Prince's Garden). This Renaissance courtyard contains a rose garden, an herb garden, and a walking path with ivy-covered arches. The entrance boasts what experts argue is the finest sun dial in The Netherlands. Close to this garden you can climb the 97-meter high Martini Tower, which offers a truly breathtaking view of Groningen.

Guests have free access to the Holland Casino with the hotel key.

Well, they were very sorry, but she had left already. Next day I asked again, but it was week end and she was not avalable. I was never succeded!
