Vassviken

Marvellous location

This is one of the oldest hotels in Gothenburg, but it is very well-maintained and clean. To me, it is a boutique hotel. The staff is friendly and professional and takes pride in going the extra mile for guests. My wife and I were originally intending to stay only one night. But we enjoyed our experience at the hotel so much, we extended our stay for three more nights and would have gladly stayed longer except we had to catch a flight to return home. My wife and I speak English. The staff was very fluent in English. The breakfast is complimentary, and we enjoyed our breakfasts very much. There was a lot of choice, and the breakfast seating was peaceful. Our room was very clean and the fixtures in the bathroom were new in appearance. The rooms have a heater/air conditioner that works exceptionally well. And in the bathroom there is a heated towel rack. Just off from the front desk there is a tea/coffee/hot chocolate counter that also includes little cakes. The drinks and cakes are free. The hotel is a short walk from the central train station. It is easy to catch a tram or a bus to go anywhere in the city or to the airport. In fact, you can check your luggage for your flight at the train station so you don’t have to lug suitcases on the train (called the Arlanda Express). The hotel is also an easy walk from Stockholm Old Town, a must-see part of Stockholm. There is so much good to say about this hotel and not enough space to do it justice.
