I just spent 4 nights at the Avalon Hotel in Gothenburg, Sweden and it was, without a doubt, the BEST stay I've had at any hotel in Scandinavia - and, in fact, maybe anywhere. And I've been to some pretty amazing places around the globe. Artful, amazing design The NICEST, MOST ACCOMMODATING PEOPLE WORK THERE! The amenities in the rooms... More

I stayed here in July 2011 for 3 nights for a conference. Having been guided to this hotel by other favourable Tripadviser reviews I wasn't dissapointed. The hotel is fashionably fitted out and themed, the staff are courteous and helpful and the breakfasts were fantastic. Thoroughly recommended. More

I have stayed at the Avalon three times previously, however, I'm not sure I'll stay again. My first room had no bath so I was moved to another room: very cramped; thin duvet; very slow broadband and a very low chair that made working at the 'desk' very uncomfortable. The reception desk seems undermanned and brusque...this used to be a... More

Booked a Superior room through Thomas Cook (cheapest we found). We arrived at about 11am and were able to check-in straight away, which was great. The room was spacious, with a gorgeous bathroom. The room looked into the inner courtyard, with a small balcony (not used by us), and a side road. Ask for a city view if you can,... More

Great hotel right in the centre of Gothenburg. Close to all the shopping and other amenities. Breakfast is what you would expect. Not overly big rooms but super comfortable beds, well appointed bathroom. All very stylish and funky. Wouldn't suit families ie more than one child, great for couples and business travel More

The Avalon has so much going for it, not least of all the amazing staff. Nothing is ever too much and from the breakfast crew in the morning to the bar staff in the evening the service is seemless and welcoming. The front desk personnel are forever smiling and always friendly and helpful. We arrived at 10am and were fine... More

We arrived around 9pm at night and asked at check in about room service, to be told it was not available but we could order from a very limited menu or go to Mcdonalds (their words, not ours!) We chose from the list but when we got to our room, we found that it was indeed available for another 2... More

Thank you for your response to your stay at Avalon last week-end. I am sorry that we did not meet the level of standard and service that you expected. Hopefully we will have the pleasure of welcoming you back to our hotel next time you are in Gothenburg so we can prove different. Have a nice week-end. More

The hotel's feature is architecturally unique, truly a designer's hotel. Everything is a walking distance, to the shops, opera house, train station and the famous Haga District. More

I have stayed at Avalon several times and it is a great hotel from many perspectives. And it has great service as well. This time I noticed that they had a new online booking dialogue. And that's good as well because the old one was not the best. Unfortunately I had to cancel the booking. I called the hotel and... More

The hotel Avalon is in a great location on Kungstorget in central Gothenburg. My room was immaculate, spacious and comfortable. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom very well apointed. The breakfast buffet was excellent and the statff helpful and friendly. The interiour has a lot of 'designer' and 'artisic' touches. Generally, these lend a welcome sense of character... More
