10/10 Exceptional

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.

Trevligt personal, bra frukost, rena och fina rum. Bättre för ni som reser med större barn till Liseberg, mycket lugnare och sen närmare avenyn.
