I got one of the windowless rooms and it was so cozy and had just enough for my needs. The staff was really nice. The restaurant for dinner was fabulous (amazing cocktails) and the buffet breakfast. The location is perfect and very central. A block away from where bus #4 from the airport drops you off. Very, very happen with my stay here.

Super stay, again!

We have stayed in the Clarion several times. The beds are very comfortable, the rooms are very clean and the toiletries are always beautiful. The full breakfast is amazing!! We enjoy sitting in the lounge/ reception area, it is very relaxed and it is lovely to be able to get complimentary hot drinks. The reception staff are so helpful and friendly.

The staff was nothing but welcoming and service minded! Breakfast was ok/good. Your ordinary selection of bread, fruit, juice, coffee, tea, scrambled eggs, bacon, pancakes etc. The waffle-iron has seen better days and the outcome was half-bad. If you don’t book deluxe room or suit, the beds are not double beds, but two single beds, and the mattresses are so soft that they can’t stay in place. They move and fall off during sleep.. The water temperature in the shower is coming and going. At least on the 6th floor. The windows don’t open, and the AC can’t be adjusted in the room. All in all an ok stay.

Ordinärt hotell

Bra hotell i centrum. Det ingår i en hotellkedja och kanske det därför saknar charm. Man får ingen mysighetskänsla utan det är bara ett boende som lämnar en utan avteyck. Lobbyn var stor och trevlig och personalen mycket gullig. Frukosten var god och bra, men äggröran bedrövlig. Trist möblemang på frukosten men funktionellt.

Deilig og stille på rommet. Negativt at restaurant og bar ikke var åpent, som var grunnen til at vi booket der. Etter en altfor lang kjøretur var vi klare for noe mat og en drink.

Väldig fint rum, lite brister i bekvämligheter

Mycket trevligt hotell med restaurang och bar i toppklass. Rummen är rena och fräscha. Men sängarna var svåra, höga och mjuka och nadrassen rörde sig mycket. Och så saknades möjligt att reglera temperaturen i rummet, ett problem när det är varmt och fuktigt utomhus och i hotellkorridoren.

Varmt men skön säng!

Ingen ac gör sommarnätterna väldigt varma. Låsta fönster som bara receptionen kan öppna åt en. Lågt till tak lite varstans ger en lite klaustrofobisk känsla över det hela.
