    There was no elevator and we had a lot of luggage which resulted in several walks up the stairs with heavy bags and suitcases. There are also stairs at the entrance of the hotel. At breakfast, there were no chicken or vegetarian options for meat and sausages. Only pork. Also, not really worth mentioning, but the playlist consisted of pop songs from a decade or longer back, felt a bit out of place :)

    We were actually desperately looking for a hotel very last minute, and were surprised by hotel Vanilla. Its overall atmosphere is really warm and cozy. I think we had one of the smaller rooms but it was still very well decorated and felt luxurious. The bed was amazing and the bathroom really nice with a heated floor. The included breakfast was really good and we were able to check in earlier than stated. Of course the location may be the best aspect as it is right in the middle of the city centre in a quiet street. The hotel is really nicely decorated. I don’t think the pictures on here do it justice.

    Reception staff didn’t said much when we checked in. We had to ask additionally about where the breakfast is served, do we have a place where we can leave our luggage, and no one told us about the lounge area on the first floor where you can play board games. Also, when we checked out, we left our room key cards on the reception, and the guy just told us “bye”. Nothing about how was your stay, have a safe trip, and other questions reception staff usually asks during check out.

    The location is definitely the biggest plus of the hotel. The room was clean, spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Since we were here only for one night, we can’t rate food options and different breakfast choices every day, but for that one morning, we had nice breakfast and various choice.

    only a small thing - a little bit more light in the breakfast area would be good, especially during winter mornings when it still is rather dark or rainy and cloudy outside....

    the hotel is located smack in the middle of the old town - you can reach everthing easily by foot or by public transport - but in a small and quiet street, hence very nice to relax after having spend a day about town the hotel is rather small although larger than expected since two old buildings have been combined, the feeling being in there is quite cosy, comfy when walking around the hotel floors and sitting in the lounge area or at breakfast (if you are up early)- nothing like in bigger chain store/hotels the breakfast is really nice - lots of things to choose from for every taste, the arrangement of the buffet is more then welcoming - real earthen ware, no plastics, nice plates, different warm choices, beverages hot and cold, milk and non-milk, fresh fruits and bread .... In summer times you could even sit in the court yard and enjoy your breakkie

    Very pleasant stay in the heart of Göteborg

    • Small Double Room

    The room was a bit small. Got a room with a double bed, but had I not been alone it wouldn't have been that comfortable. Facilities in the bathroom are bit old. All rooms are on first (or second) floor with no elevator. I was traveling light, so not an issue for me, but if you have heavy luggage it may be of concern.

    The location is absolutely perfect, with all the main spots in the city reachable by foot. Outstanding continental breakfast offer, with excellent choice and quality (loved the fresh pastries). Overall very nice atmosphere.

    My only issue was that I was woken up on my last day at 7. 40am by very loud drilling and banging..

    The hotel was located very central so was very easy to get around. The hotel was very clean, comfortable and the breakfast included was outstanding..

    - Exposure to noise from neighbour guests. - The duvet underneath the cover needs to be cleaned once in a while... - Breakfast does not have a machine to prepare fresh coffee... the only coffee available is from a big container.

    Cozy hotel very centrally located, friendly staff.

    There is no elevator. I had a large suitcase which made it difficult to carry it up the stairs.

    Good location, conveniently located in the city center, close to many shops and not far from Gothenburg Central Station. I arrived at the hotel at 1 p.m. and the staff allowed me to check in. In fact, I had to check in at 3 p.m. I was very impressed.
