This is a really beautiful hotel. Our room was gorgeous. The area around the hotel has a lot of building work going on at the moment but it will be lovely once it is all finished. one thing of note, while the breakfast area and the food selection was really excellent it was VERY busy every day. It is such a big hotel that shouldn’t be a surprise but worth planning for.

Breakfast was exceptional and the property is trendy and spacious. The roof top bar is great with exceptional views of the city, and the Obie spa was definitely worth visiting a number of times during our stay for sauna and massage. Gao went above and beyond with helping us out with a few issues and we received both helpful and friendly customer service from Helene, Linne, Emilie and Sara. All staff at the hotel and spa were super nice. Woukd definitely return!

Room is nice, looks good. Lobby beautiful. Breakfast is very good but you have to book a slot cuz it's very crowded. Our room was facing a wall and they didn't really aloud changes so don't count on views, u could get unlucky. You must pay to use sauna and pool. Restaurant upstairs is nice but costs a fortune.

Family trip to Göteborg
Really nice (new) hotel close to city center and public transport. Arrived with ferry from DK and had hotel in walking distance. Really good breakfast. Good rooms which were clean and quiet. Area around hotel is nice and city center is in walking distance.
