4 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 May 2012 NEW

I have visited Gothenburg more than 10 times and most of them I have stayed at the other side of the river. This time I decided to revisit this hotel, almost after 5 years since my last stay. The location is unquestionably the best. Everything is in walkable distance, the central station is just below, you can find a taxi... More

Too bad my singing is not as good as Amy's. Then again, this hotel doesn't deliver either. I had booked a deluxe room, and my concierge service secured an up-grade to a suite for the first night. i was excited, the hotel website promised plenty and I thought that a new house can never go wrong. Yeah right. Frontdesk was... More

The hotel is located in central Gothenburg, beside the central station and Nordstan (shopping area). We came to Gothenburg by car and parking was no trouble. This is a good value hotel. Nice and friendly staff. Spacious and clean rooms. I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

Excellent central location, friendly staff and modern facilities.Very handy to the rail and bus network. A Hertz Office right next door and a modern shopping centre 100 meters away. The breakfast buffett is great.

Spent a few Easter holidays there. Nice and friendly staff, good room and great bathroom. Rather small room though for a Superior room, but well, the size of the room is not the most important. All necessary there :-) For me the bed was too too soft, so have spent the next days straightening my back on my floor... If... More

Typical Swedish minimalist hotel. It is located in the train station and next door to the bus station. However the hotel is really quiet and you could not hear any noise from the train station. It has a small but fuctional gym.There is a mall across the road from the hotel.

Considering this hotel is right slap bang in the middle of Gothenburg, above the main railway station, it's incredibly quiet: during my stay I heard not even a whisper from outside or adjacent rooms. Rooms have lots of wood, but unlike many Swedish hotels there are decent in-room coffee-making facilities, and a very-well stocked (albeit expensive!) minibar. Breakfast is typical... More

The hotel is literally above the train station but it is so quiet you wouldn't know. Buses from the airport drop off at its door and obviously lots of trains! We walked all over Gothenburg but there are trams nearby if you prefer. The rooms are basic but stylish with large LG flat screens. We had to choose a shower... More

Cool ambience, very friendly reception. Room was inward towards other rooms, thus no view but other rooms. Room was comfortable and very clean. The bed was very comfortable. Did not have breakfast at the hotel. The main reason to stay here is if you arrive and leave by train, will spend most of the time in the neighbourhood (very central... More

Good service, mediocre rooms, not so nice breakfast buffet, not worth the money IMO... Convenient location though which makes it good for business trips...
