"We really loved this hotel. The "jailhouse" vibe was cool and we enjoyed the history presented along with it. The kakola neighborhood is beautiful and worth exploring. The hotel staff were very helpful and kind. "
"This place was fine, but when you're travelling with a dog there is not useful area to take your dog out. Small yard, but nothing more. It is not useful. Luckily there is a park in next block.
Otherwise the place was good and easy to use. "

Scandic Hamburger Börs
10/10 Excellent
"Excellent breakfast, super clean and quiet rooms. 10/10"
"Everything was very nice. Great deal for the price. I really liked that there was no staff and the check in was still extremely easy. The whole room was clean except that I had some long black hair on and under my sheet. The sheets were definitely clean but I think that the cleaning stuff could be a bit more careful with this. Also our TV started lagging after ~15minutes of use. But the stay was still better than I expected."
"Exceeded our expectations. Very clean and well thought through amenities. Make sure to read about parking because it is not visible and you may think it is hard to park. "
"Friendly staff, clean and well appointed rooms, excellent breakfast, walkable distance to the riverfront, safe beautiful surroundings. The old prison vibe was still there in a good way - not your usual cookie cutter hotel. I will most definitely come back! "
"We had an excellent stay at this hotel. The room was spotless, and the bedding was incredibly comfortable. The complimentary slippers were a thoughtful and appreciated touch. Every staff member I encountered was warm, welcoming, and professional, which made the entire experience even more enjoyable. Breakfast was wonderful and we were served coffee at our table a real treat.
One small issue—our in-room telephone didn’t work, so we weren’t able to order room service. We ended up using a local takeaway instead, although we would have preferred to dine in. Hopefully, this is something that can be easily checked for future guests. The cleaning team at 09:00 were a little too noisy next door too but we managed to ignore.
Overall, a fantastic stay and we would gladly return. "
