Best Hotels near Nya Varvet, Vastra Frolunda

Great service, location and value for money! For only a small additional fee they put up an extra bed in our double room for our son, which made staying here cheaper than at less centrally located hostels in Gothenburg. We also appreciated access to refrigerator, microwave, coffee, tea and cookies in the hallway. The breakfast buffet was quite simple but mainly organic. I also appreciate that Le Mat is a social enterprise who create work for people who are far from the labor market. It makes you sleep even better!

Stayed 3 days and had an excellent time. Room was great with all amenities and staff friendly and attentive. Food was great with an excellent assortment of choices. Many healthy choices. For the value, can't be beat. Easy to get to downtown. Suggest taking ferry to hotel (5 stops) and fun. Gothenburg has lots of shopping and great restaurants, formal and informal. Had a great dinner at greek restaurant close by.

If you want to be spoken rudely to then you should stay at this hotel. Max who works at reception was not only rude but harassed me several times by calling my cellphone and the room I was staying in. When I went down to reception to ask why he called me so many times he said he ”wanted to explain how the hotel worked” but instead he proceeded to be argumentative and rude. He, who is the person who represents the hotel, did not ensure that his guest (me) was comfortable and was enjoying my stay. What had happened was that I had the day before extended my stay for two nights. It was Sunday lunch time when Max called me to confirm my stay and asked me to stop by reception to extend my key which was coded. When I did stop by the reception, he then demanded that I give him the immediate payment of the room or he would not give me my key to the room- knowing that my things were there and my cat! I was offended that he was suggesting that I wouldn't pay for the room (which I had all intentions of doing)...but I said I would do it in two hours. (I had a migrain and wanted to lie down for a little bit just to feel better). He instead insisted on getting payment straight away or ”he couldn''t” give me the key. When I did finally get my key, and went to the room to lie down, he proceeded to call the room phone and my cell phone repeated times. I think this is completely inappropriate. Instead he belittled me and accuse me of ”not listening ”when I told him i did not want to discuss this futher and I tried to remove myself from the situation. Max is rude and should not be working in reception for a hotel when his need of ”being right” is more important than the comfort of the hotel guests he is serving.

We felt very welcome and relaxed in this beautiful place with a great location. Close to many nice places to visit. Both Majorna and the central city. The staff helped us out to make our stay with a nine month year old baby as convenient as possible!

Very nice modern hotel, super convenient location and friendly service! Avalon is on Kungsportplatsen in city center, easy to go around by walk and tram stops are round the corner. Our superior room was nicely furnished, modern design, comfortable beds and huge bathroom. And extra surprise, own balcony. I asked a quiet room and this room really was it. Service at reception and at restaurant was so friendly and attentive. We were first time in Gothenburg and got all the information we needed when we checked in. The breakfast was also good. The Terrace Bar was nice, too and in the morning the breakfast was possible to have outside. Nice! There is a wide collection of art and design at this hotel, we really liked it. We were super convenient and I really can recommend Avalon!

The room has just been renovated for a year, the facilities are perfect, the room on the 12th floor has a good view. The hotel lobby is great in design, with a lot of space and a lot of sofas. The breakfast was particularly rich.

Gothenburg (pronounced ”Gothenburg” locally) It is a distance from the central station, but if it is a bright time, take the tram number 9 from the tram stop near the information center and take the Stenpiren tram stop. Get off at and walk for a few minutes. A taxi costs about 200 SEK (a little over 2000 yen, depending on the taxi company). Is the boarding time about 10 minutes in each case? The exterior was under construction when I went, but the lobby and the atmosphere of the room were satisfactory. The front desk is also friendly. ^ --^ Please note that there is a deposit here (because there are paid drinks in the room)! The breakfast was well kept warm and the taste was delicious.

It’s very rare you find a hotel that checks all the boxes but this is it for me. Had the friendliest welcome when arriving at a late hour. The check in was quick, easy and I was in my room in no time. I’d forgotten adapters for my electrical items, the hotel was like no problem. Turns out the rooms have USB and USB-C plugs in the rooms so was covered. Moving onto the room. I had the best sleep ever. Perfect climate control. Wonderful views to wake up to and just every little detail was just amazing. After a delicious breakfast (lots of choice, Swedish and international cuisine), I explored the hotel further, the gym looks really good (I didn’t use it… just told myself I should have) and they also had a sauna. Moving outside, the location. The freshest air ever (it was nice to breath there) and literally just over the water from the city centre. If you like to walk, it’s perfectly acceptable however as I travelled with people who don’t like to walk, the hotel directed us to a bus stop one minute away. Literally two stops later, you’re in the centre. The hotel pointed out the work being done on the water front. There’ll soon be the option of getting back and forth that way. Finally, the team. It’s clear that this hotel clearly has the customers at the heart of what they do. Everyone I spoke to was warm, friendly and open to sharing hints and tips to make our stay in Gothenburg magical. And it was… EVERYONE needs to visit this wonderful city. I’m already planning my next trip and I will definitely stay again at this hotel.

We really wanted to like this place. The location seemed nice online - but in person you are surrounded by construction - this is 2021 but from what I can find the construction is going to be here for a while. It’s almost like the whole city is under construction. It makes navigating around the hotel, on foot, via bike/scooter, or in a car - very challenging. There is a ton of public transport here though. Which brings me to the next bad point. Noise. If you’re on the 6th floor with the balconies - don’t expect to leave your doors open unless you like noise. The busses and trains and other traffic are fairly quiet as far as transit goes - but they do make noise, as well as the traffic signals. And they run all the time. In addition - anything on the 6th floor and you get thumping bass music *all night* from the nightclub above you (especially on weekends). Damn near impossible to sleep. Another thing which bugged us (may not bug you) is a lot of people smoking on their patios around us made ours smell bad fairly often. The bathroom is a very neat concept - but executed poorly. The shower would flood water into the main part of the bathroom - like there is not enough slope or drain in the shower and no lip to keep water in there - so it just runs out under the door into the main bathroom area. The restaurants and bars in the hotel are nice. Breakfast was decent - nothing to be amazed by - but it will get you going for the day (although it was really crowded and often very hard to find a socially distanced seat - but this may not apply too long into the future I hope - this review is 2021). The bed is comfortable and the room nice enough. The patio chairs were not the most comfortable, and there was broken glass all around our patio so we had to wear shoes when walking out there. The view was very nice - albeit full of construction (not the fault of the hotel of course). Overall a nice place with lots of tiny flaws that made it annoying. Maybe if you stay farther away from the night club or on one of the lower floors it would be nicer or quieter. Not sure if the bathroom issues would exist in other rooms - if it is a design flaw it probably would.
