Very Good

A few minutes walk from the train station. Ideal location to restaurants and shopping areas. We had the super King room which was spacious and nice. The bed was super comfortable. Buses stopped in front of the hotel. Espresso cafe in the same building which was very nice.
Facility dramatically updated in 2025. Room/bathroom/bed very comfortable, breakfast buffet wonderful, hotel location near best restaurants and train station.
Hotel does not offer parking.

Room was clean, bathroom could do with a deep clean. Staff were very polite and efficient.
The receptionist was very friendly. The hotel had been renovated since our last visit but the changes confused us. Upon entering the hotel we were confused about where the registration desk was. Before renovations the reception desk was right at the entrance. This time what we saw were chairs and a small lounge? The new “look” was confusing. We paid to check in early and they gave us a room in the hotel section that had just been renovated, and not completely finished. Construction tape had not been removed even in the elevator. A weird experience frankly. Our room was a long walk to find. But it was clean and spacious enough. Not enough electric outlets. Our stay was pleasant. The hotel was a few minutes walk from the train station, and near restaurants and walking distance to Aros Museum. Housekeeping was great.
Nice clean hotel with good breakfast buffet and pleasant staff, and also very handy to the train station. Unfortunately, there is a downside to the locale: noisy drunks, screaming and fighting on one occasion, more celebratory on others, kept us awake between 3 and 5 am on three nights of a 5-night stay.

Basic hotel in need of renovation
Rooms were little outdated and pretty basic. Beds were not the best. Location was great and staff friendly. Parking was tricky as it is located in the nearby shopping centre and it was not possible to stop in front of the hotel (busy street).

The hotel is conveniently located across from the central station and with a bus located at the entrance.
Great breakfast selection.
The bedroom was comfortable.
The bathroom and shower was extremely small! Every time I showered the bathroom used to flood, making it disgusting to have to walk on your shower water which never dried.

Shaun does construction at the moment you could hear very loud construction. No one in early that wakes you up. Also lift was broke for a day otherwise people like nice breakfast was really good.
The hotel is under renovation. This lead to a lot of noise from 7 in the morning.
There was a lot of builder dust on the first floor, there was no heating in my bathroom (freezing), and the hotel had no option to move to a proper room.
Would definitely avoid staying here until renovations are done.
On the positive side the location is really good, and everything is close.
Good location and standards. We had the superior family room, which fitted our family of our quite conveniently. The only minus was rather bad/nonfunctioning AC, which also was the case for another family we were travelling with. No way to adjust it either. Other than that, it was a great stay and the best Scandic Hotel experience we have had.

Staff was very friendly. We would have liked a better view instead of looking at a construction site. Blowdryer broke down. Asked for another one but it never arrived. Asked for ice and the machine was broke. Parking was at another location and almost impossible to unload your luggage at the hotel as it was a bus zone in front of the hotel. We enjoyed the breakfast it was very delicious.
