2/3 found this review helpful

We stayed here for a long weekend in late Sept’06.

Room. Not so much 5 Star fantastic but more like 4 Star average. Small, bland, very high ceilings that are disproportionate to the rest of the room. This makes it feel cold and lifeless, some basic design could easily have helped this. Clean with wooden floors. Noise level: I could at one point hear someone in the room above mine but it was not a problem. There seemed to be no air conditioning which may be an issue in the summer as once the windows are open you can hear all the street noise and night club close by.

Bathroom. Small, clean, functionable, green marble floor and sink, white everything else. Not the best shower power shower but worked well enough. Hair dryer a complete waste of time, so ladies it’s either go natural or get your hair set before arrival.

Lobby-Bar-Reception area. Fantastic, very ornate, wood carving, marble, mosaics, gold leaf paint, huge cut glass chandeliers. Bar; Small / intimate in a nice setting styled in a mix of contemporary and old, atmospheric light, lovely large windows, wood panelling, chandeliers and best cocktails you are ever likely to have. They stick with the basics but are really excellent. There is also a larger American style lively ‘pub’ in the basement.

Service. Very good, very helpful.

Breakfast. Very good, is in the lovely part of hotel most photographed. Incredible choice from bacon and eggs etc to a rang of meat cold cuts, cheeses, fresh breads, sauces, chutneys, Swedish caviar, smoked salmon and other fish. Fruits, i.e. melons, grapefruits, grapes etc, cereals, yogurts, fruit juices, the list goes on.

Comment. Had a lovely time here, enjoyed the hotel and the staff were so helpful. Room could have been better. Would I go back? May consider other options but knowing Gothenburg is quite small with limited options would be very happy to return.

Stayed 2 nights mid-august.

Very good location, but to be honest - this hotel has nothing related to the "design hotels".
Small room, but nice bed.

In couple of words nothing special but great location

“Perfect location!”

Elite Plaza Hotel Goteborg

Jul 6, 2006
4/5 found this review helpful

I have to say that I expected a bit more from a 5 star hotel than what we got. The room was tiny and no place to sit down except for the bed. However, the bathroom was very nice, the bed comfortable and the rest of the hotel very nice. Breakfast was very good with a wide selection of cold cuts, fruit, cerals, tea, fresh juices and bread. I am gluten intolerant and they did have bread for me but I am not much for bread so i did not try it out. Good to know they have it though.

The staff was friendly and we felt very wlecome every time we came back from a tour on town. The only problem was that we were there at the same time as Robbie Williams which caused papparazzi and fans to wait for hours outside....So be sure to not stay there when a major artist is in town....if you don't want a chance to bump into them in the elevator that is :)

As said in the title, the location of the hotel is perfect! A short walk from the station, close to shops and nice restaurants. There is also a tiny little café in the back of the hotel where one could relax in the shadow for a while :) And of course, the excellent restaurant and pub is well worth a visit...

“superb hotel”

Elite Plaza Hotel Goteborg

Jun 5, 2006

Great place... the mix of scandinavian design and historical building is unique and classy.

Rooms seem a little small but the heigh of ceiling compensate this. Service is helpful and location is central (great for shoping).

“Quiet and relaxing comfort”

2/2 found this review helpful

The single room I got was small but had a very warm atmosphere and was very comfortable and quiet despite windows towards the restaurant far below (glass ceiling). Luxuriously comfortable bed and a lovely bath robe in the room.
Staff was average. Friendly but did not make or break the experience of staying there.
The location is good, in the centre and "on the border" of the main shopping area. Reasonable walking distance to most places of interest. And tram station almost just outside the hotel.
Large breakfast buffee, also with wholegrain breads and fruits.
