Would avoid in future
Not sure how it is a 4 star hotel:
The room is so small one can barely move.
Shower gel was empty: had to use hand soap.
Breakfast options are not suitable for people who avoid breads, except if one likes boxed liquid industrial eggs: I asked for fried eggs - staff refused.
The restaurant’s food menu is poor and the the food itself is average at best.
I would not stay there again.

Bra och enkelt
En helt ok och vanlig övernattning. Mindre rum än vanligt men man får ju vad man bokar för, tyvärr börjar Opalen bli lite dyr. God och bra frukost.

Hade queen rummet och fick badkar på köpet. Helt underbart då det inte syntes på bilderna.
Allt bra, tvn lite gammal då man rj kan cromecast:a. Vidare åt vi frukost kl 7, men allt var inte uppdukad då. Om frukost bärjar 7 ska man inte vänta på maten, allt ska vara klart.

Min fru och våra barn bodde på hotellet över en natt, men tyvärr blev vistelsen en mycket obehaglig upplevelse – särskilt på grund av bemötandet i restaurangen.
En kvinna som arbetade där, och enligt uppgift var ansvarig, uppträdde på ett sätt som vi uppfattade som direkt ovänligt och oproffsigt. Min fru blev i princip ombedd att lämna restaurangen eftersom vår treåring inte satt helt still – något som borde kunna hanteras med mer förståelse och tålamod, särskilt på ett hotell där barn är välkomna.
Istället fick hon ta med sig maten och sitta ute i korridoren. Det är oacceptabelt att behandla gäster, och särskilt barnfamiljer, på det här sättet.
Vi kommer tyvärr inte att återvända och kommer även att avråda vänner och bekanta från att besöka detta hotell. Det finns många andra alternativ där man blir bemött med respekt och där barn får vara barn.

Rent och snyggt med sköna sängar och rejäl frukostbuffé,
Perfekt för oss som familj med Liseberg på schemat. Hade vi velat shoppa och gå på stan hade vi nog valt något mer centralt. Men det ligger ju bara två hållplatser från Centralstationen och spårvagnen stannar precis utanför.

Bra frukost, bra rum, lekrummet hade kunnat uppdaterats med lite roligare leksaker.
