Hello, we visited the room and turn back to car and booked another hotel. Room was extremely too warm. Children wouldn't sleep any minute there. We're very disappointed.

We stayed one night during a winter car vacation along the east coast. The hotel is central to shopping, restaurants, and lovely neighborhoods. Street parking was free from 7 pm to 9 am. The facility is steeped in history with charming furnishings in the common spaces and high quality beds and bedding in the room - the most comfortable of all the hotels during our trip. Warm fresh bread and lots of other delicious breakfast offerings. Coffee and tea in the common area as you wish. It’s a secure building and very quiet - in winter with windows closed. I can imagine hearing sounds of the city in the summer. There is a handy elevator to the hotel level, but there are at least 10 steps to get up to the elevator. We will return for a summer visit to this lovely and historic city.

Åsikter

Väldigt fint och gammalt hotell! Underbar personal som välkomnade direkt och visade runt. Rummet var otroligt fint det med! Det enda negativa jag har att säga är att sängarna gled ifrån varandra för lätt så om man har en partner så ramlar denne (eller du) ner i springan mellan. Frukosten hade inte så många alternativ tyvärr. Såg fram emot ägg och bacon men det fanns mest torra mackor och flingor. Annars var det en fullpott trots att toaletterna är gemensamma och inte på rummet! Nära och bra, personalen var så välkomnande och vistelsen var super!

Mer ett vandrarhem än hotell

Järnvägshotellet upplevs mer som ett vandrarhem än ett hotell. Det är gemensamma toaletter och duschar. Inredningen är gammal. Vilket iofs säkert är ett medvetet val av ägarna, men den behöver inte vara sliten för det. Standarden är låg med gammal utrustning. I frukosten saknades den ”varma maten” och påläggen som låg på faten kändes som ”billighetsmärken”.

Underbar liten personlig pärla i stan! Lite dammigt på rummet, om man känner av sådant. Ett ställe att återkomma till när vägarna går ditåt. Prisvärt och utmärkt läge.

Så mysigt och fint hotell i gammeldags stil. God frukost (saknar gröt!) och ett fint rum där jag sov gott, trots varma sommarvärmen. Bilderna är från mitt fönster tidigt på morgonen kl05 den 15 juni 2025. Så vackert här i Gävle där gammalt och modernt mixas. Många skulpturer i city. Jag deltog som ombud på Gävle Konserthus för Örebro i och med Riksstämman 2025 för Naturskyddsföreningen! Rekommenderar hotellet: fin service och trevlig personal, rent och fräscht: kvalitet till bra pris.

Plus: ett stor rum, en stor garderob omgjord till hylla/hallförvaring, okej sängar, två charmiga vintage fåtöljer, tv fanns och den fungerade, bra läge för oss. Sådär: Lite slitet. Eventuellt minus: inget eget badrum, men det visste vi när vi bokade. Helt okej.

Välj ett rum med hög siffra om du vill sova.

Blev tyvärr väckt flertalet gånger från 02:00 på morgonen och framåt då väggarna är papperstunna och jag hade rummet närmast utgång/entre. Klev slutligen upp då städet dammsög rummet vägg i vägg vid 6:30 "som om hon försökte riva ner väggen med hjälp av dammsugaren". Annars ett trevligt rum, renoverade duschar och en okej frukost.
