This was one of the loveliest hotels. The staff was kind, and friendly. My mom was injured and they were super sweet to her and helpful.
The hotel and the surrounding area was beautiful. We had a great view of the gardens and will definitely book again.

One of the nicest hotels in Gröningen
We’ve stayed in Prinsenhof multiple times. A very nice hotel. Nice design, lovely view over the garden this time. Couple of small niggles with shower control not being 100%, and water scalding if you’re not careful

We had a memorable stay at the Hotel Prisenhof. Centrally located in the heart of Gronigen, there were numerous shops, restaurants and points of interest all within walking distance. Our room was on the upper floor of what we learned was previously a monastery. It had a lovely view of the garden and was very spacious, although we wished it had more natural light. Our bed was extremely comfortable and the room was clean and quiet. If you are driving, a tip is to park overnight at the Forum Gronigen, only a few minutes walk away. Another plus is the hotel is dog-friendly (for an additional fee).

Hôtel de grande qualité
Hôtel idéalement placé prés du centre ville, tout en étant très calme car entouré d'un jardin et d'un parc. Personnel très agréable et prévenant. Chambre confortable et restauration de qualité. Une mention spéciale pour le restaurant Nassau, pour un dîner de grande qualité au service impeccable. Nous avons passé un très bon séjour.
