6/10 Good

Quite Good
Room was nice but was not cleaned and no towels changed during the whole stay. Maybe they don’t do this anymore? Also, there was often no one at front desk when needed. The hotel facilities are great, gym and there’s a new restaurant. The location is also good and quiet.

Sustainable hotel with luxury experience
Wonderful facility with comfortable and modern amenities. The hotel fits in with the nearby industrial harbor environment as well as providing an inviting and pleasant atmosphere. The location is convenient to walk or bike to restaurants or the old town. We appreciated the many ways the hotel is operating sustainably including the keyless door system. We would stay here again.

Superb location. Noisy room facing the main street. Ok helpful reception.

Too hot, there were no sun protection so the rom was over heated. It was also impossible to see the screen at the machine for parking payment.

Dejligt hotel, bestille junior suiten med hav udsigt, meget fint, men utroligt lille badeværelse. Total lækker morgenmads buffet, men alt for dyr, når man tænker på at man spiser et stk brød og drikker en kop kaffe, man burde kunne bestille mindre.
Aksel Blomgren, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Skønt sted!
Et af Aalborgs bedste hoteller og en super beliggenhed. Let at snøre sko og tage en tur langs vandet. Altid imødekommende personale. Dog, var bruseniche ikke optimal. Kloak stoppet, som gjorde vandet løb over og op af rist både i bruseniche og under håndvask så hele badeværelse "sejlede" i vand.

Super fint ophold på Pier 5. Gode værelser og morgenmad.

Fint hotel med meget central placering.
Meget let check-in via tilsendt sms med kode til værelse på forhånd.

Dejligt hotel - spar morgenmaden væk
Fantastisk hotel – det er nu anden gang, vi bor her. Hotellet og især værelserne fremstår rene og velholdte. Morgenmaden var dog ved dette andet besøg ikke særlig god. Udvalget var markant reduceret sammenlignet med første gang, og personalet var desuden dårlige til at fylde op og sikre, at der var nok af alt. Vi havde ikke forudbestilt morgenmad, men endte med at betale 540 kr. for tre personer – det var bestemt ikke pengene værd. Min klare anbefaling er at nyde en overnatning på det dejlige hotel, men springe morgenmaden over og i stedet tage på café. Det ville både være bedre og billigere.
