This is a really beautiful hotel. Our room was gorgeous. The area around the hotel has a lot of building work going on at the moment but it will be lovely once it is all finished. one thing of note, while the breakfast area and the food selection was really excellent it was VERY busy every day. It is such a big hotel that shouldn’t be a surprise but worth planning for.

Great view and comfortable room and bed. The shower had a problem with clogging and we didn’t get help the same day, so after a reminder the day after it was fixed fairly swift, we also got vouchers for a cocktail upstairs in the rooftop bar so all is forgiven. The spa is not worth a visit, very little variation and extremely loud environment especially when a group of guys occupy the pool in the centre of the room screaming to each other constantly. We also found a hefty portion of snus tobacco pasted onto the seat of the sauna. The hotel personnel should have asked them to behave or kicked them out, but unfortunately nothing of the sort happened. Breakfast was very crowded but you could always find seating. Better information about the booked time slots would probably have helped.

Bad

Room Access Failure – The key didn’t work, and my daughter and I had to sit on the floor waiting for help. 2. Lack of Communication – No phone in the room, making it impossible to contact staff at night. 3. Unbearable Noise – Loud disturbances continued until 4 a.m., ruining any chance of rest. 4. Misleading Support – Hotels.com told me I could cancel with a refund, but the hotel refused. 5. Inadequate Compensation – One hour of spa access for one person only, while I was traveling with my daughter. These failures completely ruined the purpose of our stay — a peaceful and relaxing day — and I received far less than what I paid for.

Breakfast was exceptional and the property is trendy and spacious. The roof top bar is great with exceptional views of the city, and the Obie spa was definitely worth visiting a number of times during our stay for sauna and massage. Gao went above and beyond with helping us out with a few issues and we received both helpful and friendly customer service from Helene, Linne, Emilie and Sara. All staff at the hotel and spa were super nice. Woukd definitely return!

FIVE STARS!!!

Lisa at the front desk was amazing! The area was experiencing a heat wave while we were there and I expressed my concern at check-in. She was very polite and offered to provide us with a fan which promptly arrived once we were checked into our room. The breakfast buffet was incredible with tons of tasty options for starting our days. The hotel is also very close to the train stops so we were able to get around town super easy! Highly recommend this hotel and would 100% stay here again.
