This is our 3rd time at this hotel and we love it. The view sea side, the rooms, and the walkability of the location to the city center. The only drawback is the parking, as everytime we have arrived the place parking was difficult. A+ Hotel

The hotel overall was nice and breakfast was excellent. However, we were travelling with a child and there was no place set up for her to sleep when we arrived. We called down to reception and asked for the sofa bed to be made up. Staff dropped off bedding but did not make up the bed. Once the sofa bed was made, there was very little space to manoeuvre around the room. There was also loud, thumping music being played at an event downstairs until around midnight that made it difficult to get to sleep.

Very poor and dated decor and 'vibe'. 'Musik' everywhere including loudly from pool areas from exactly 8:00am every morning to wake you up. Noisy building work going on at front door which twice started at 5:00am. food was indifferent, decor shabby and from a 1980 time warp. It was in a convienient location and the views were good but the 'pool area' noise and building work ruined it for us.

Like - The setting on the water with views of Sweden. Wine bar. Spa. Ability to elax. Didn't like - parking was problematic; it was difficult to find a parking spot anywhere near the hotel on multiple occasions. We also believe we sustained some damage to our car while parked. We notified you of this via email and have yet to receive a response.

Some disappointing lapses

The hotel is very nice and the staff are friendly and helpful. Some things were surprising though in a hotel of this quality - the curtains not being of sufficient quality to keep out any of the bright sunlight, the only way to turn on the fan was by climbing up on the bed, the tv remote not working. A bit disappointing in a hotel at this price point.

Lovely stay

Lovely location and great service. Only negative was that my room wasn’t ready for check-in at 3pm as promised which left me little time to get ready for my event. It is a big hotel and there is lots of guests so expect queues for checkin, bar, breakfast buffet etc I would stay again and try the spa facilities next time.

Disappointing, not fit for 4 star rating

I had a reservation for just one night, which turned out to be enough. The room wasn’t ready until 40min AFTER check-in (3pm according to their own instructions), so I was asked to just sit in the reception area until the room was ready for me. When the room was ready, I was not offered a free drink at the bar as all the other guests, whom I could see and hear from where I was waiting, so I asked if I also qualified for a free drink. I got one, which was only valid that same evening, an evening I already had plans for, so I had no use for it after all. My room was down the hall from the elevator, a very frequently used elevator, and not only could I hear the door opening and arrival sounds in my room, the whole room shook when the elevator when up and down -it was very difficult to fall asleep like this. Also, weirdly, the thin top mattress just below the sheet was at least 30cm narrower than the mattress which made a ridge where I had to sleep. On the up-side, there was a bottle of wine in my room -to compensate for the construction noise outside my window -but no glass-so I had to drink it out of a coffee mug. In my opinion it is also very late for breakfast to start at 7:30am on weekends, most other hotels I stay at breakfast is available from 6am every day of the week.
