The reception was very friendly and check-in went smoothly. The room was large enough and well equipped. The breakfast was really good, there was a lot of choice.

Recommended for cyclists

My wife and I enjoyed our stay. We travel with our bicycles and very much appreciated that we could store our bicycles in the hotel in the basement. The hotel is nicely located directly at the river and the city center is close by. There is free coffee at all times and the breakfast was appropriate. We can recommend the hotel for people traveling by bicycle.

Veldig god beliggenhet. God frokost. Hyggelig betjening. Helt greie rom og bad. Fin utsikt, men veldig små vinduer på hjørnerommet vi fikk. Totalt trivdes vi godt.

Hyvä hotelli keskustan tuntumassa. Ravintolat ja kaupat kävelymatkan päässä. Huone oli siisti ja tilava. Aamiainen respan tuntumassa oli hyvä. Kaikki tarpeellinen löytyi. Pysäköinti kadun varressa tai pysäköintihallissa n. 300m hotellilta.

Ett centralt beläget hotell med personal som var trevliga. Ingen natt betjäning. Bra frukost. Tyst och mörkt i rummet. Ett bra hotell för jobb resa, inget jag skulle bo på med min fru.
