I loved the hotel’s great location, close to beaches, restaurants, and shops. My room was spacious, very clean, and had a modern, comfortable bathroom. The restaurant offered a good variety of tasty food, and the staff were always friendly, smiling, and helpful. Housekeeping kept everything spotless, and the reception team was welcoming and quick to assist. Overall, the stay was comfortable and enjoyable.

The only downside was that the parking garage was quite expensive.

Good old school business hotel in central location, near to parking house. Pleasant views from upper floors. Friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast more generous than in many similar places.

Standard rooms and fittings are clean but very tired 90s-style and in dire need of renovation/replacement. Would not want to stay for more than one night. Some of public spaces are upgraded in smart current design. Breakfast staff is overwhelmed by guest numbers during high season.

The hotel is ideally situated in the city center, making it a convenient choice for exploring local attractions. I found the place to be well-maintained, which contributed to a pleasant stay. Additionally, the staff were welcoming, creating a friendly atmosphere throughout our visit.

I didn't like that parking came with an expensive fee, so we ended up parking on the street instead.

* New and very clean * Exceptional breakfast * Very well-organized room: even though not big, the layout is very convenient with a lot of places to put and store stuff. * Convenient underground parking (price is ~20 euro per night, which is pretty standard for West- and North-European hotels)

* I couldn't think of any complaints.

Our stay was excellent in all regards. Breakfast was great, room was great, location was great. Value was great. Staff was nice and accommodating.

Gym & sauna could have had a higher standard and could have been better maintained. Parking could have been cheaper but there are other options not too far away if you don't need to park adjacent to the hotel.

Easy check-in; parking was very convenient; & our room had all we needed...Breakfast was superb! Great variety of eggs, breads & meats; plenty of fresh fruits & meusli; & the cheeses were delish! Staff were friendly & very good at keeping tables cleared & available as guests arrived.

Beds were fine, but the pillows could be better more firm...

Super handy that you can organise to park in their garage when you stay. We also charged our EV. Excellent overnight stay before we needed to get back on the road to our next destination.

Shower was a little cramped and small. But water pressure was excellent.

Great location in the centre of jonkoping and very clean

There is a confusion about breakfast times, half 10 is actually half 9 so we almost missed breakfast! Luckily one the cooks was kind enough to bring back out some cooked breakfast.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this hotel. The staff was exceptionally friendly, the location was ideal with many nearby restaurants and public transportation options, and the breakfast was very good too.

There was no minibar in the room, however, the hotel did offer ice upon request, which partially made up for it. The curtains in the room were not blackout, so the room became quite bright early on (I was there in springtime).

Very clean, tidy hotel. Room was very clean, neatly decorated. I really liked the sleek design of the interior of the hotel. John Bauer illustrations to give it a more personal touch. Friendly staff too. Would definitely go again, to explore Jönköping some more. All for a very good price.

Not much to complain. The parking spot was a bit tight, but what can you expect in a city centre?
