Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which boasts a very spacious and light room with all the necessary amenities. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, really enhancing my visit. The location is fantastic, just a short walk to the Old Town, and right beside the canal. However, I did wish there were a few more accessible power sockets in the room, and the breakfast could have offered more variety.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel in Uppsala, thanks to its great location near the city center and the lovely view from my room. The rooms are spacious and well-equipped, making my stay comfortable. The staff was friendly and very helpful, though I did find that the dining options could be improved. Overall, it was value for money with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel has a fantastic location close to the city center and lots of attractions. My room was spacious with a great view of the cathedral and river, which I absolutely loved! The staff was friendly, but I did experience some inconsistencies in service. The dining options were quite nice, offering delicious typical Swedish cuisine, but the breakfast could use more variety. Overall, it's a good value for the price, but not without its drawbacks.
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel! It’s located right by the main canal, making it super easy to explore the town without the noise. The rooms have a lovely old-world charm with modern touches, but they were a bit on the small side. The service was friendly and offered nice little perks like free coffee. However, they were a little noisy when cleaning up in the morning. Overall, it’s good value for money, but there are definitely some areas for improvement.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel with a fantastic canal view from my corner room. Everything was clean and welcoming, and the location couldn't be better, being close to the university and city center. The staff were friendly and helpful, making my experience even better. The breakfast spread was excellent, although the overall dining experience could use a bit of variety. Perfect value for a great stay!
