“Clean but soulless”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2012
3
people found this review helpful

We stayed as this hotel on the 6th February 2012. It was spotlessly clean and the room was very nice. Breakfast was good but we didn't eat there in the evening as it was completely lacking in atmosphere. The bar was better but there was no one in there. Having said that it was a Monday night. I would recommend this hotel if you are just stopping over for one night. It is in the middle of the town and there are lots of restaurants to walk to.

“Fantastic Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 February 2012
2
people found this review helpful

We stayed 3 nights at this fantastic hotel.
The reception staff are very friendly and helpful.
The bedrooms have everything required, a very comfortable bed. A lovely warm shower with the watering can type of head. The rooms are spotlessly clean.
The bar has a happy hour every night at 6. The bar staff are very efficient.
The location is great and a perfect position for all the best bars and restaurants.
The breakfast is very nice with a buffet with plenty of bacon sausage eggs hash browns etc.

“Very friendly, comfortable, affordable and cental to town”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2012

Very clean hotel remodeled in the past few years. Hotel is in the very center of town so you can walk just about anywhere in town. Small TV in room was a bit old school but we didn’t go there to Iceland to watch Seinfeld re-runs. Staff can arrange day trip, make hotel reservations, warn you away from certain tourist traps, all with a good nature and never a sense that you are intruding when you ask for help. Americans should really try and book a room with as large as bed as they have available. If you get anything larger than a queen you will find that they have strapped two smaller beds together to make a larger one – You find that more and more outside the US. Again location is really important. Before you book a room, look on a tourist map and locate the house that Reagan and Gorbachov met and then plan on avoiding any hotel within half a mile of there. Yes, that’s where some of the internationally know hotels are and the restaurant Vox is not to be missed, but otherwise it’s a boring stretch of highway, convenience stores that close early and winding edge of town roads that may be interesting the first walk. But for me nothing beats being able to get back to your hotel walking in 5 minutes should you suddenly need to, or being able to walk out of the hotel at 4 in the morning to get something to eat or drink. Daily breakfast was Nordic and not bad for $ 20 bucks a person but the coffee could be better. It’s a lot like having breakfast in Sweden, but not nearly as nice a spread as you’ll find in even the most modest hotels in Stockholm. I would happily stay there again. By the way, since we flew into town from the US and arrived around 8:00am, they were happy to clean a vacant room within 20 minutes, upgraded us to a mini suite and all at no additional charge. When we checked out they were happy to lock up our luggage, so we could spend our remaining hours walking through town.

Room Tip: Try and get a bigger bed and you may end up with a larger room.

“Realy good central location and nice hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I stayed here for 2 nights only, with my husband, son, daughter in law and their two very young children. We arrived after midnight because our flight had been delayed but found a warm and friendly welcome. Both our rooms were very comfortable and quiet. The family room was great with a large mezzanine level bedroom and a nice sitting area downstairs. Breakfast was very good and plentiful with delightful and friendly ladies serving. The hotel is in a brilliant position within walking distance of all the central areas without being a traffic area. We really enjoyed our stay and if we visited again we would certainly stay there. My only adverse comment would be to agree that the bathrooms are a little compact but totally adequate.

“great location, very nice”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2012

person found this review helpful

many of the "name" hotels are very far outside "downtown." This hotel is in a great location right in the city center so we could walk to dinner and shops and museums. We were upgraded to a mini-suite which was wonderful - lofted bedroom and livingroom/bath below. The TV service wasn't great, but then again i wasn't there to watch TV. Staff very nice and helpful. Breakfast buffet available and a lovely cafe/bar for cocktails. This hotel isn't fancy, but it is clean, well run, perfect location, very affordable and a great choice.
