Nice hotel in good location
Hotel is conveniently located near Liseberg and the bus stop for airport. 5 minute walk into the city centre. Plenty of choice for breakfast. Reception staff very helpful.

Would avoid in future
Not sure how it is a 4 star hotel:
The room is so small one can barely move.
Shower gel was empty: had to use hand soap.
Breakfast options are not suitable for people who avoid breads, except if one likes boxed liquid industrial eggs: I asked for fried eggs - staff refused.
The restaurant’s food menu is poor and the the food itself is average at best.
I would not stay there again.

Fint!
Praktisk familierom! Bærer preg av hyppig bruk og slitasje, men renhold og service var supert, så det fungerte fint for oss. Vanskelig å finne bord da vi skulle spise frokost, ellers tipptopp.

Stökigt
Väldigt stökigt och mycket oväsen på hotellet. Tydligen någon fotbollscup och extremt mycket barn och ungdomar som förde oväsen på hela hotellet. Lekte i hissar och korridorer.
Rummet hade en fin utsikt men dessvärre kändes golvet i rummet och badrummet smutsigt.

Små rum, väldigt stökiga besökare då det var lyhört från korridoren, kaosaktig känsla i frukostmatsalen, svårt att hitta bord och långa köer till de olika matstationerna. Bra renlighet på rummet.

Ryddig og oversiktlig hotell som ligger sentralt i byen.
Bra frokost, men litt kaos midt i påsken.
