What guests think

At Hotel The Happy Traveler, guests highlight a central city-centre location, warm and friendly staff, quirky travel-themed spaces, and generally clean, comfortable rooms, some with kitchenettes or balconies, alongside a popular rooftop and bar that create a lively atmosphere.

There is recurring late-night noise from bars, terraces, and the courtyard, so light sleepers may be disturbed. Room layouts vary; some include kitchenettes and balconies, while a few found spaces compact or bathroom arrangements unusual. Expect a stylish, central stay with great energy, best for travellers who do not mind nightlife.

A wonderful place with amazing staff. I was already expecting a lot of noise in the inner yard and it was ok except that they started moving metal furniture and stuff outdoors etc. after 1am making extra noise which was completely unnecessary. I do not mind loud people outside but this was just not needed. Overall I enjoyed my stay a lot in this lovely hotel.

If you want to go to sleep before 1am don’t stay here. The bar by the same name but operated by others keeps the music loud until midnight or 1am then you can listen to them clean up and put all the bottles away. Otherwise a nice clean hotel, know before you go!

Wir waren mit sechs Mädels da. Und das Hotel ist einfach so toll gestaltet und hat ein wirklich besonderes Design. Alle Mitarbeiter waren super freundlich, die Zimmer geräumig und die Badezimmer groß. Bis 01:00 Uhr ist es nach hinten raus sehr laut, hat uns aber nicht gestört und es gibt Ohropax auf den Zimmern. Auch die gesellige Rooftopbar ist einen Besuch wert. Wir kommen in jedem Fall wieder ♥️

The room we had was really nice, but a bit cramped. The patio was nice to relax on. Having the kitchen was nice to do some actual cooking for ourselves instead of having to eat out. The bathroom was quite small and dim (which was the only major downside) - and the mirror/light was rotated 90 degrees from what it should have been. Having a clothes washer to use was nice as well, but some instructions would have been nice since we weren't Dutch and are used to a different style

Wat een leuk hotel! De inrichting is zo origineel! Het personeel is zo vriendelijk en behulpzaam, er wordt heel hard gewerkt om het iedereen naar de zin te maken. Ik had een leuk ingerichte kamer, met zelfs een klein keukentje er in. En zeer schoon ook. Het hotel ligt midden in het centrum van Groningen, op 10 minuten lopen van het station. Het ontbijt was heerlijk, en zeer gevarieerd, evt. buiten op het terras te nuttigen. Als ik weer naar Groningen ga, logeer ik hier weer!

A terrible noise from several hundred young people partying two meter from our window, music hammering until two in the night and noise from the clean up until four in the morning. Smoke from sigaretts and mariuana from people one meter from the window in the room. It is a scandal that we have to pay 130 Euro for this nightmare.

The good - I had a great price for a room with a balcony (the balcony was awesome). All but 1 of the wait staff were excellent. Location was perfect. The not so good. Breakfast, cheese old, bread loaf (yesterday's bread), coffee machine for breakfast - also not so good, paying a pretty good price for not so great food. Also the roof top deck that was raved about wasn't open for the two days I was there - no reason, just not open. I'd give it 3.6 stars - for me is a pretty good rating.

Fun travel themed hotel with everything you need. Was quiet when we stayed (winter) but they warn it can get noisy with the bars around the hotel in season. Windows have hard shutters with acoustic foam on to counter this, plus ensure a good blackout! Would go back - better than other hotels I’ve stayed at in Groningen.
