We had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. Although it’s a place chosen by families with young children, our room remained remarkably quiet throughout the entire visit. We slept well, relaxed easily, and felt genuinely comfortable. The room and bathroom were newly renovated, modern, clean, and thoughtfully designed. One of the absolute highlights was the breakfast buffet, truly outstanding in both variety and quality.
I have a daughter w severe allergies, hotel staff was very knowledgeable and my daughter was able to enjoy their wonderful breakfast. Thank you

The hotel staff are very friendly but I was disappointed in the cleanliness of the room I slept in. Was disappointed as it looked very shabby and cheap which I didn’t expect. I have been in better hotels before with the same status. My room was not once cleaned whilst I was there which was odd. We had dirty towel when we first came into the room which didn’t set the scene of cleanliness. No top up of tea or coffee which is the norm in hotel rooms. Breakfast was lovely and was plenty of it. All in all, its was ok.
The hotel was superbly located for access to the Ullevi Stadium. Staff were really friendly and there was no issue with our lack of Swedish. The breakfast options were plentiful. The room felt a bit cramped, but it served its purpose. It was great that there was an ironing board and iron in the room without having to call reception for one. The restaurant couldn’t handle the number of customers in the evening (due to the football match), and turned away my group and two others. The price of snacks etc on offer was amazingly cheap. Not sure if that was the hotels pricing or the transfer rate from Kr to
GBP. We’d probably stay here again if we wanted access to the Ullevi stadium or the theme park which is just up the road.
There is some renovation work taking place on the ground floor, but this didn't detract from my stay and I couldn't hear any noise. Room was very comfortable and well equipped.
The family room was clean and well-equipped. The hotel itself was undergoing some construction which didn't have any detrimental impact on our stay, though.
A breakfast slot needs to be booked via the hotel's website but they are quite lenient if you're showing up a bit later. The breakfast was really good and the staff was very quick at restocking.
The hotel itself is located within walking distance of the town centre and very close to the Ullevi.
Okay hotel, not the best view on the second floor towards the back yard and also I was woken up by noise from workers in the room next to mine from changing tv screens I think. In my room the card board was left when arriving to the room..
