Decent hotel in the heart of the city. Parking is extra but close to the hotel. Breakfast was nice
Stayed here with my tour group the night of October 8. The main building of the hotel is over 300 years old, and this hotel screams character. Some of the stairs are quite steep, but have no fear, they have elevators. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Rooms felt a bit spartan but were very comfortable. Bathroom had a tub and a seperate shower stall. The fixtures reminded me of my grandmothers home. The breakfast was very good and well worth the price. If I were to travel to Gronnigen I would stay here again. Lots of places to eat nearby if you dont want to dine at the hotel. Underground parking is a short walk from the hotel.
Very helpful and responsive staff at reception. Centrally located hotel, would have loved to try breakfast at 7am but only opened at 8am.

The primary reason for my negative review is the fact the hotel was suppose to refund the first night of my stay due to the Train Stoppage in Amsterdam making it IMPOSSIBLE to go from Amsterdam to Groningen. I spoke with an agent and they advised me I would get credit for the first night. This did not happen. They lied. Even Expedia could not assist me. Everytime we tried to reach someone at the hotel, that person was not it.
Cleanliness was excellent, service was exceptional as was the food.
Only problem that I had was the stairs, which were steeper than we are used to in the UK, and the steps were shallower. No problem going up but had to be really careful coming back down. This was obviously due to the age of the building, so wouldn't change a thing.
This hotel is old and beautiful. The rooms are large and clean, with classic furniture. We had a wonderful stay!

Very unique property built out of an old estate home, with all of the rooms being individually decorated and shaped differently adds a lot of character to the place. We enjoyed our time spent here and although the COVID restrictions meant that certain amenities were not available, the staff was friendly and helpful. We would stay here again as it was very centrally located and provided easy access to walking around all of Groningen.
This was our third time at Schimmelpenninck, so needless to say we love it here! Breakfast was as delicious as we remembered it, Jacuzzi as relaxing as we remembered it. We did notice that here and there, over the years, the hotel could do with a few touch-ups (lick of paint, tightening a few screws in the furniture, perhaps new pillows - all little things). We'll definitely stay here again. It's amazing how quiet the hotel is, even if it's on a busy street. It's a great location for shopping, dining and close to the station and the fabulous Groninger museum.
