Hotel the Happy Traveler Reviews

Totally awesome hotel. Like step in to travel museum. Spotless clean and right in the middle of the city. Yes it is noisy at the night but you just need to close your window and turn on the fan. Will come back if I visit Groningen again.

Love this place. Have stayed a few times now as it's central to Groningen and the university, but quiet enough as it's not on a busy main road. There is a great roof top terrace bar as well. Rooms are clean and come with kettle, coffee machine, hairdryer and fridge as standard and for a reasonable price compared to others. The staff are always friendly and helpful and, of course, speak perfect English! Only issue i had this time was not being able to use the TV on my last evening due to a technical issue.

Great theme-based hotel in the heart of Groeningen! Shout out to the staff for being really nice and friendly.

From the moment I stepped into The Happy Traveler Hotel, I felt genuinely welcomed. The staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile, making me feel at home right away. The check-in process was smooth and efficient, and I appreciated how they offered local tips that truly enhanced my stay. The room was spotless, spacious, and thoughtfully designed with both comfort and practicality in mind. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, the linens fresh, and the bathroom sparkling clean. I especially loved the little touches—like complimentary snacks, quality toiletries, and a cozy reading nook—that made the space feel personal and inviting. Location-wise, it’s unbeatable. Situated close to key attractions, public transport, and charming cafes, it made exploring the city effortless. Despite being centrally located, my room was wonderfully quiet at night, ensuring a restful sleep after a day of adventure.

The Happy Traveler is a family-run hotel and this is visible every step of the way. The staff are friendly and very helpful, and the hotel itself is designed with care to ensure a pleasant dtay. The Happy Traveler is located 50m from the Rijksuniversiteit Groningen, and everything is within walking distance, with a couple of good bars right under the windows. I will stay here whenever I am in Groningen.

Really nice location and good vibe. There are a lot of places around to eat.

Fantastic price for a spacious single room. Staffs at the counter are very friendly and helpful.

Every equipment was so tidy and clean.

It is far from the Groningen Railway Station but other things are good.

It's a great place in the city Center and the room is clean ...

Super!

A small hotel with good facilities in every aspect. It can be regarded as the best single room I have ever stayed in.

Despite the perfect location, you can't stay in your room without the window closed due to the city noise. The beds are clean, and the toilet and shower are new and clean. The Sile management was especially attentive and helpful.

The lady at the front desk was very friendly. Since I made a mistake in booking the wrong date, she helped me to rearrange the room.
