The location is excellent, every important historical landmark is really close. The historical building has quite a nice atmosphere, with its intricate stairways, pleasant decoration and a great garden.

The building is old, so special (doubled) windows are used, and you cannot open the windows. The internal ventilation system is working efficiently, but it cannot be set, the flow of air can be annoying if you happen to sit/sleep under the ventilation air outlet. You cannot really work on laptop, as there is no suitable table in the room.

We made a spur-of-the-moment decision to spend the night in Leewarden and we ended sleeping in an astonishing historical building placed in a top location, just a stone's throw away from Leewarden's city center, canals and main tourist spots. The room was spacious, quiet and even had a coffee machine. We also liked the back garden where guests can chill at night. We only had a small issue with the room key but that was promptly solved by the staff at the reception. Overall, it's good value for money!

The carpet had some stains but other than that it seemed pretty clean.

The location if great, in the centre of the city. It was easy to find on our bike tour. The bike storage facilities were great, an underground garage across the other side of the square. The room was huge. I think I have never been in a bigger hotel room ever. There was just a Velux window, so no view.

The building is an old historical one and it's like traversing a rabbit warren finding your room. We had 7 bike bags and a battery to carry and needed a few trips from reception through the "warren". Thankfully there was a lift to our 5th floor room.

The location, the wonderful breakfast and importantly the greeting at reception. It was just before midday when we arrived with our bicycles because of the forecast of rain all afternoon. There was no problem at all in finding us a room already cleaned and allowing us an early check-in. It worked out alright for them as we enjoyed the bar all afternoon, watching the pouring rain!

The room was small and on the ground floor close to the bar bistro so people were walking past our door noisily all evening and early in the morning

Right in the centre and a very character building exterior. Excellent secure bike storage. Very comfortable room. Staff on reception were really friendly and helpful.

The layout was quite rambling as the interior had been built inside a facade. No opening window in our room because it was inside an old facade. Not that anything can be done about that but be aware. The bistro was pleasant but the food was average for the price and the service was rather glum

The room was pretty decent and well equipped for two persons. Including coffee and tea facilities in the room and a vending machine with snacks and drinks quite close to the room. The building has lots of character and breaths history

The beds and pillows were a bit soft (guess that is a matter of preference) and the floor above our room was creaking a lot when the upstairs resident moved around.

We planned to visit Grioningen but could not find the "right" accommodation fit. Quite by chance then, we staged our visit visit from Leeuwarden, and what a wonderful surprise: a beautiful city, historic and vibrant but without the crowds, and an hotel in the center of this city that was once a royal residence. Ask the manager for a rundown of the building"s history. The breakfast room is in an intercoonected adjacent building – have the pancakes, bacon, cheese, and syrup. Centrally located, absolutely everything is a short walking distance.

There's nothing not to like!

Beautiful old building. Great location, in walking distance to shopping, public transportation and restaurants.

The building is an old historic palace that has been adapted. So for people traveling with big suitcases, like us, it could be tricky to move around. Even the access to front door could be difficult for some people (few steps).

Excellent location on the main square. Our room was big with a big bathtub, but carpet needs replacing, and while I liked the throwback kitsch, the rooms need a bit of updating. Loved the Common spaces though. Gorgeous.

Staff didn't help us with luggage, which was awkward, and didn't have much info on the area either (staff is friendly). Odd that they did not provide real cups in room, but I found when no staff was around.

Location was excellent, in the middle of the old town, bars, restaurants and canals. You could walk everywhere including the train station. Beds were great, breakfast good, rooms renovated and clean. Tee and coffee makeing facilities in the room. Helpful staff, some tables also in the back garden, nice old building.

There could have been two things in the bathroom to make it perfect: curtain or door in the shower and hand'shower'/ bideshower next to toilet. And also maybe mini fridge could be added in the room.
