stayed in Jul 2008
We stayed for 2 nights. It was really a 5 star hotel, besides 2 things:
The girls, working in the morning in the brekfast restaurant. They were very young and did not have the "5 star feeling". they were maby very new at this, but fx. I asked for a soft boiled egg, but I never got it, even though promised. The second thing: when sleeping, you could hear people walking in the hallway and when they went in to their rooms, the bed shook, when the door slammed shut. 2 things that not should happen in a 5 star hotel. At least I think. Otherwise: the front desk: superb service, they were great! The breakfast food: very, very nice.

The hotel is located in the heart of the city and close to the one of the malls. Nearby, there are also other small shops, as well as pubs and restaurants.
A tram line is right in front of the hotel, although is better to just walk around and admire the city.
As for the hotel itself, the staff is very nice and ready to help with whatever you need. The rooms are clean and the bathrooms are well equipped with bath products.
The breakfast was poor, but the real negative point I'd give this hotel is its lack in heat. It appears they have a centralized heat system and I must say that when we were there at the end of the March, the heat was totally off. In order to actually be able to sleep in the room, they provided a radiator- which was ok, but still, the hotel is rated as a 4 or even 5 stars and having to ask for a heated room I think it's a bit too much. We had to leave the radiator on when we were leaving the room and that kinda gave us some chills, as u never know when a fire can start up and there you are, in big trouble.

stayed in Nov 2006
We stayed here for a long weekend in late Sept’06.
Room. Not so much 5 Star fantastic but more like 4 Star average. Small, bland, very high ceilings that are disproportionate to the rest of the room. This makes it feel cold and lifeless, some basic design could easily have helped this. Clean with wooden floors. Noise level: I could at one point hear someone in the room above mine but it was not a problem. There seemed to be no air conditioning which may be an issue in the summer as once the windows are open you can hear all the street noise and night club close by.
Bathroom. Small, clean, functionable, green marble floor and sink, white everything else. Not the best shower power shower but worked well enough. Hair dryer a complete waste of time, so ladies it’s either go natural or get your hair set before arrival.
Lobby-Bar-Reception area. Fantastic, very ornate, wood carving, marble, mosaics, gold leaf paint, huge cut glass chandeliers. Bar; Small / intimate in a nice setting styled in a mix of contemporary and old, atmospheric light, lovely large windows, wood panelling, chandeliers and best cocktails you are ever likely to have. They stick with the basics but are really excellent. There is also a larger American style lively ‘pub’ in the basement.
Service. Very good, very helpful.
Breakfast. Very good, is in the lovely part of hotel most photographed. Incredible choice from bacon and eggs etc to a rang of meat cold cuts, cheeses, fresh breads, sauces, chutneys, Swedish caviar, smoked salmon and other fish. Fruits, i.e. melons, grapefruits, grapes etc, cereals, yogurts, fruit juices, the list goes on.
Comment. Had a lovely time here, enjoyed the hotel and the staff were so helpful. Room could have been better. Would I go back? May consider other options but knowing Gothenburg is quite small with limited options would be very happy to return.

Stayed 2 nights mid-august.
Very good location, but to be honest - this hotel has nothing related to the "design hotels".
Small room, but nice bed.
In couple of words nothing special but great location
