If you are looking for a decently priced hotel with a more homely, familiar atmosphere, and do not have to live right in the centre, this is a really good choice. Exceptionally clean hotel, not too many rooms, quiet, very friendly staff, spacy, nice rooms. Nothing is extraordinary, but everything is of a good standard. The only real drawbacks with this hotel is that there are literally no restaurants nearby, meaning one has to take a cab or bus to town for a meal. They do serve sandwiches or pie's in the evening, but no real meals.

I stay here quite often for work, as it's about 5min walk to the office. Very friendly personel. Always ready for a late arrival. Very good breakfast for this size of hotel. Quiet location.
Nothing to complain about.

I stayed for 2 nights, when they found me rooms at short notice after I checked out of the low-rent Sparta. The staff at Ideon were extremely friendly, courteous and professional.

The suite is particularly nice, with a full three piece suite, but the standard room was also very pleasant.

The windows fit exceptionally well, and the rooms and hotel are extremely quiet and peaceful. That said, like almost all Scandinavian hotels I have stayed in, the curtains and blinds do not keep the light out, so you may get woken up by the sun if you are a light sleeper. The rooms are also Swedishly hot, although not unbearably so.

Ideon Gasteri is 15 minutes on foot from the town centre, in the middle of the Ideon science park and next to the economics dept. Which is useful if you are visiting these places, but otherwise a drawback, especially as there is no restaurant on site.

If you have a car, and don't want to stay in the centre, then consider this place - the rooms are pleasant, it is quiet, and the staff are great. Free wifi too.
