Do you prefer a hotel in the city center, or rather a nicer, cleaner, newer hotel with parking facility just outside the center? We chose the last and weren't disappointed. The room is new and spotless with a large bed in which you can stay for hours in the morning, because the breakfast is until 12! And at breakfast you can fry your own eggs! The people are friendly, the bar is nice and the restaurant above what we expected.
The only things we didn't like were a strange soft humming noise in the bedroom and the noisy breakfast room (bad acoustics). Also the highway can be heard quite loudly.
Since Groningen has a policy to minimize cars in the city center, consider driving to the nearby P+R Hoogkerk (exit 35), where you can park for free and buy a bus ticket for €3 (both ways).
