    Comfortable, clean and central.

    The hinged, glass, curved partial shower door was odd to look at and not very functional as it barely kept water from spraying all over the place.

    The location was great, right near Stortorget and Lilla Torg, and it was easily walkable from the central train station. There are plenty of restaurants in the vicinity.

    Shower doors have a strange design, does not really stop water splashing everywhere

    Excellent location! This hotel is right in the city center, close to all the sights and restaurants, while also being in a fairly quiet street. Breakfast was superb! Staff was very helpful and friendly.

    Didn't feel like Elite Hotel standard, bathroom was not fresh, shower door wasn't closing so bathroom ended up being all wet, water pressure was bad, room didn't feel fresh either, I was a bit disappointed considering it's the family of Elite Hotels and I was always happy with their hotels

    Good localisation - only 5 min walk to the train station, fantastic breakfast, spacious room

    Nice and central, could go for a general brush up. For a 4 star hotel, it lacks a bit of comfort.

    Beds are waaaay too soft. Scrambled eggs were wildly undercooked and had no seasoning.

    Great location. Friendly to dogs (they had a bed and bowls in the room). Breakfast was very good (except the scrambled eggs, those were the worst). Rooms are very nice.

    Excellently located right in the city centre of Malmö next to Lilla Torg with lots of Bars and Restaurants nearby. Despite its central location, the rooms are spacious and quiet with comfy beds for a good night's sleep. Breakfast was excellent with lots of tasty options and professional staff. Just be aware that you have to choose a one hour timeslot for breakfast start the night before.

    There is no phone in the room. The furniture and the beds are old. Most of the blankets and pillows have a bad smell. I advice that you should bring your own blankets an pillows.

    🇰🇼🇰🇼🇰🇼 The Hotel is not new. The air conditioning is very cold and nice. The breakfast is relaxing and good. It has a nice location. The staff was amazing and very friendly.

    Shower situation was messy; lots of water everywhere given only one glad panel. Even with lots of towels to catch spray water, I still felt like it was a mess. Grout in the bathroom was not very clean as a result?

    In a very cute area. Good size rooms. The lent to s to make our kids feel welcome was wonderful; they love the tigers!

    Breakfast buffet is a challenge at this property when it is fully booked. There is not quite enough capacity. The staff seems engaged in optimizing the flow of guests but it is difficult. The quality of the breakfast buffet is very good. The lighting is aligned to the evening restaurant vibe - it’s dark.

    Central. Clean. Good sized rooms nicely furnished. Comfortable. Efficient staff.

    In room coffee was minimal and could have been better in today’s world and the quality of hotel. Water availability in the room

    Good location. Very friendly and helpful reception staff. Facilities were good. A roof top area would have been great for such a city. The in room facilities of tea/coffee and water were disappointing

    Bed was too soft and "sensitive", disturbed my partner when I turned, it took me three nights to get used to it. A bit noisy for us, we were at second level facing the street.

    Location is very good, probably the closest hotel to Lila Torg, with good restaurants nearby. Room is very spacious, breakfast is good especially the staffs serving breakfast, they are helpful.

    Bathtubs is not what we want to have in our hotelrooms today. A proper shower with a mounted shower head above your head. This is what we prefer and that will happen next time they upgrade this hotel.

    Location, location, location. This hotel is in the right location in Malmö next to Lilla Torg. The facilities are getting a bit of age, but still work great. The in-house Asian oriented restaurant with fusion food is just fabolous and worth a visite.
