A good basic hotel in residential district, tram for travel to center of Gothenburg just outside.
Complete breakfast.
A few minutes walk to a nice italian restaurant, Marsala.

We stayed two nights at the Spar Majorna. It is a nice place that was clean, the front desk spoke decent English and it was convenient being on the #3 tram line. The rooms are small but that is not unusual in Europe. The breakfast was better than good and there was something for everyone. You could hear the tram but it was not too noisy. Parking was beneath the hotel and was extremely convenient. If we visit Gothenburg again we would happily stay here again.

I stayed here for a weekend visiting my son and chose this hotel because it is close to where he is living at the moment. So yes it is not close to the centre but several tram lines stop just outside so it's not a problem. It's quiet and comfortable if a little on the basic side as far as the furnishings go. I got a room at the back of the hotel which I think is quieter. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast is very good. I would happily stay here again.

I booked this hotel for our 5-day city break despite the fairly mixed reviews - sometimes you just have to take a chance, and the price was right! And the good news is, we were extremely happy with what we got. After a super-early flight, we arrived at the hotel at about 10:00hrs hoping to drop off our bags. However, our room was ready, so we were able to check in and freshen up before hitting the town. The room was certainly compact, but well designed so that we didn't feel cramped, the bathroom was lovely & clean, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. The breakfast was amazing, great choice & plentiful and the dining area was nice and comfy. Make your own waffles, they are tasty! Unfortunately, we didn't get a chance to use the sauna and gym on the 8th floor, but those facilities are available which is nice. The hotel is about 10-15 mins from the city centre, but the tram stop is literally outside the door and trams seemed to run every 6 minutes, so we were able to get around easily. Gothenburg seems like a pretty small city, so I don't really understand the complaints about location...There is a large ICA supermarket about a 10 minute walk away if you need supplies and a great park (Slottskogen) around the corner -perfect for a lazy Sunday, with animals, crazy golf, and plenty of snack shacks. We would definitely stay at this hotel again, it was a great place.
HOTEL TIP: No toiletries - take your own!
HOLIDAY TIP:If you are there for a few days, get the Goteborg card - free entry to tons of places and free travel on public transportation.
