Average

The hotel was not full and i was allocated a room where there had clearly been a leak and the walls were covered over with plaster cast and not painted over. I am not sure what cleaning took place during the stay, glasses were not collected, the tea bags were not replenised and the towels etc in the bathroom were not folded/tidied

Potential of being good

This hotel has the potential to be a really good hotel. Great design, comfortable rooms, a nice bar and we really love the service and quality of Brasserie Draken. Unfortunately the hotel really need to do something about the appalling level of housekeeping, they either forgot to clean the room at all, or it’s half cleaned with missing towels, dirty glasses/coffee cups etc. We stayed for 4 night and not once was the room properly cleaned. Unfortunately there also seems to be an issue with staffing at reception, no one picks up the phone when you try to call and if you go down to reception to get help you’d be waiting for at least 15min as it’s too busy with guests checking in/checking out.

Jan Niklas

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I travel a lot, but I rarely encounter service this poor. The staff was unfriendly and seemed annoyed by the presence of guests, as if we were a bother. Our room wasn’t cleaned once during the entire stay – no fresh towels, no bed made, nothing. At this price point, I expect at least basic cleanliness and some attention to guests. The breakfast area was cramped, overcrowded, noisy, and lacked natural light – not a pleasant way to start the day. Overall, a terrible value for money. I wouldn’t stay here again and definitely wouldn’t recommend it.

Hej, vill tacka er för en fantastisk upplevelse när vi i helgen firade dotterns 30 års dag. Bästa service, personals bemötande, lyxiga rum, bordsplaceringen i restaurangen på kvällen var helt otrolig och maten i en nivå över andra. Stort tack!! Vi kommer tillbaka.
