The hotel feels like a solid 3-star option with some nice touches. The rooms are large by European standards, and I appreciated the luxury of extra duvets and towels in the wardrobe, although a bit more space would have been welcome. The service was a mix of convenience and oddity, with the charge per meter reading being a unique touch and the staff entering the room at strange hours. The location is ideal for easy access to the city's attractions, but the breakfast setup can be a hassle during peak times. The dining experience offers a decent selection but could benefit from more variety. Overall, a decent choice for those looking for a convenient stay.

The hotel had clean and well-equipped rooms, but they were a bit bland and cold. Unfortunately, the night club in front of the hotel made it noisy until 3 am. Despite feeling stuffy, the room was not very fresh. The service left a sour taste with clear limitations on assistance. On the bright side, the dining experience was excellent with a wide choice and nice staff. The location was great, close to the main square and shopping areas. A downside was the lack of dinner options and road diversions. The facilities were really nice with no complaints.

My stay at the hotel was mostly positive. The rooms were decent, albeit a bit outdated, and the bed was comfortable. However, the superior double room I had was very small. On the bright side, I got it at a great rate, thanks to my travel agent. The glass wall separating the toilet from the rest of the room might be something to consider if you're sharing the room.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was great for exploring the waterfront and nearby attractions, but the breakfast area could get crowded, resulting in long waits. The rooms were a bit noisy early in the morning, and the hotel seemed a bit outdated and in need of maintenance. However, the staff was helpful and friendly.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were spacious and clean, making it easy to relax. The easy check-in process was a big plus, and the breakfast overlooking the river with fresh squeezed juices was a delightful experience. However, the glass walls in the restaurant could make privacy a bit challenging at times.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room was comfortable and clean, with a nice view, but the price seemed a bit high for what was offered. The service was top-notch, with friendly staff and a great breakfast. The location was convenient, close to the city center and with excellent views. The dining experience was exceptional, especially with the famous Swedish pancakes. However, the temporary setting for check-in was a bit off-putting.
