Stayed one night at this hotel. We decided to park our car in one of the 25 free parkinglots just outside the entrance. Were nicely welcomed by the receptionist, and promptly offered an upgrade to our chosen room. The room itself was nice and tidy, with really comfortable beds. Our room was to the back of the hotel, facing a... More

Stayed for two nights during a conference. The hotel was recommended by the host. I got a single bedroom with ocean view on the fifth floor. The room was fresh and apparently some of the floors have been renovated recently. The style is minimalistic and scandinavian, for instance the sink was made of glass. Breakfast was overall good (no extra... More

I booked a easter special rate through the hotels website, and first moved in to a "normal" family room, normally sized, with a sofa, doublebed and pretty nice view. But then, my bathroom was cold, and i asked what could be done about that. I requested for a heater, so it wouldn't be cold in the morning... (the bathroom is... More

Use this hotel alot. Is ok, but i wouldnt stay their out of choice. Can hear other rooms, doors slamming and when they do my whole room vibrates. Clean though, but boring. The skybar was closed when i was there and nothing to do. Fine for 1 night stays.

I experienced excellent service at the front desk, both chekcing in and out. Cool bathroom with glas walls, (love the shower) and a comfortable bed made the stay a pleasure. One plus is that it's close to shops and restaurants. Also the view, over the roof tops and the water is lovely.

Nice view, nice experience. The best one for business trip. Very clean, comfortable and has all that you would require for a short stay. The bathroom was very cool with glass and such but tiny and no proper door between the bathroom and the bedroom! Also have nice Jacuzzi.
