“Not what I expected”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012

The hotel is a place to stay for a couple of nights but not a lot more.

I saw the photos on the website and looked forward to a newly decorated room which bright colours and modern furniture. I got an old, out-dated, dusty room with not a lot going for it. It was very dark and the lights all hummed which is annoying when you are in Sweden in the winter as you generally need the lights on.

I thought I would drown my sorrows in the mini-bar but when I opened the dark mahogany cupboard up there was an empty space where I could see through to the carpet.

I wouldn't have paid for this hotel had I known what I would be getting, I would have stayed in the Comfort Jazz instead. I think if you get a new room then you'd probably be fine but the old rooms are pretty grim.

Aside from that the breakfast was good though typically Swedish and I was there when there was a large business group there and they flooded the breakfast area each morning and were loud and made it very busy.

The staff were very helpful and check in and check out were very efficient.

“Functional scandinavian style hotel”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 November 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I stayed on the 3rd floor and had a renovated room, but not sure if the other floors are still not upgraded. The room has everything ypu need except a minibar for those that wants this extra feature. The hotel bar on the ground floor seems well visited. The bathroom is sleek and stylish with a shower . The shower drawback is that the water will cover most of the floor when you are done. I also missed the heated floor that is common in lots of bathrooms but maybe this is one of the eco -friendly opt outs by scandic. The restaurant offered burgers but the bread was hard as wood, so maybe you should try something else for dinner. The breakfast was however well stocked and things were almost overflowing on plates. I did miss a latte or cappucino machine though. Nice attentative staff in both the restaurant and the reception.

“After the face lift at ground floor it is a nice hotel again”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 October 2011

Last time I was here a large part of the lobby was closed off due to renovation.
The result is a open lobby with warm colours.

Staff: Efficient and friendly as allways

Room: Try to get a room on the newly renovated 3:rd floor

Room Tip: Try to get a room on the newly renovated 3:rd floor

“Good!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 October 2011

The room we had, a superior room was actually a suite, large bedroom and a living room with 4 armchairs. Two bathrooms as well. The furnitures were a bit old fashioned, the room would have been considered very modern in 1991, but it was well kept and I kind of liked the style anyway. A bargain for around 1300 SEK /night (weekend price). The lobby and restaurant was way more modern, recently redecorated. The hotel is situated in central Borås, and has its own garage, Staff was friendly as well, and I don´t have much to complain about at all.

“A nice hotel in the middle of the town.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 August 2011

We stayed at the hotel for three nights, and were very happy with the clean spacious family room, a great breakfast and a friendly staff. The kids loved the hotel, and we will definitely stay at the hotel if we visit Borås again.
