Hotel Poseidon

This was our second time in less than 6 months coming to stay in this perfect little hotel. The rooms are very well decorated and clean. The breakfast is fantastic! The staff are very friendly and welcoming and the hotel is located in the perfect part of the city to explore by foot or by tram. I can not recommend this hotel enough. One of my favorite hotels I have ever stayed at.

The only thing lacking in my opinion would be a small fridge in the room to be able to keep cold water and drinks and some snacks cold. It is an old building and there is no air con, but there was a nice fan already in the room when we arrive and it was perfect.

The exterior and interior design were vintage yet upkept with a hint of modernism with the flat screen TV and the A/C unit. The beds were exceptionally comfortable and it was easy to simply discard breakfast in favor for another hour or two of sleep.

The elevator had a hard time functioning, as in it was slow at raising us to our floor and it often made me question its integrity. The light switches in the bathroom would also not work at times prompting you to switch them several times before the light would actually turn on. Lastly, the variety in breakfast choice was lacking.

A nice Hotel, close to the Center but a quiet place, due to very good windows Perfect breakfast, with all things you need and some more. Nice and friendly service personal. Room was small but comfortable. Bathroom clean and well equiped. All in all a nice stay for two nights.

It should be clearly stated on the main page that the parking in the parking place (external, 8 Minute walk, no problem to reach well) is not possible for van or car higher than 1.94m. You can try with a MB Marco Polo or T5/6 with integrated sleeping roof, but I would not recommend. You will get stucked on deck A :-( We checked by measuring. So you have to stay outside near the Hotel and pay official prices. :-(

Breakfast was incredible- lots of wonderful options from fruit, breads, yogurt, meats and the best Swedish pancakes. Location was the best part, easy to get to a bus stop and very close to town. Staff was very friendly and nice and helped us multiple times. Loved my daughters single room with the turquoise modern decor.

Our double room was smaller than expected with no place to put a phone, water, etc at night next to your head and no where to charge items at night. Very small thing, but we would have liked a to-go cup for my coffee and something to put a sandwich in on our last morning as we had to grab breakfast and leave for a train. Not a big deal as we were happy to have a great breakfast to choose from.

We were on the top floor so some of the ceiling was sloping. Everthing else was all that one would expect for a mid-range hotel. Breakfast was excellent with good selection of hot food as well. Very clean room. Pleasant reception staff. Very solid building so no noise from adjacent rooms.

It wasn't the fault of the hotel but there was a Pride festival going on some distance away but still very audible and also it was student graduation time so there was a lot of celebrations in the street. We will probably stay in this hotel again but ask for a courtyard facing room.

The room was cozy and with a good view to the backyard. Sunny. Big bathroom. Good breakfast. Perfect location of the hotel in the more authentic part of the city, further away from the train station. Still only a 10 min. walk to the station.

The room was under the roof and thus had weird dimensions. The bed was too soft so we both slept not too well all three days. The room did not have enough electric light, as there was no light in the ceiling. As a consequence the room was very dark when the sun didn't shine in. The shower was also made in such a way that the water ran out onto much of the bathroom floor.

Front desk staff was terrific, helped me understand parking in the city, provided extra pillows, and was extremely kind.

The room had everything you need in a compact space. We liked being able to open the windows a little. The twin beds were close together but enough walking space on either side. I liked the colour palette of the room and the ambience of the whole hotel. The breakfast room was good and the food had a bit of everything. Nice to have elderflower juice as well and the option of 4 minute or 6 minute boiled eggs. Staff were very friendly and professional and had put our gloves aside when we left them accidentally in the lobby (which was a cosy place to hang out) and also stored our luggage after check out while we explored the city.

Our friends stayed in the ground room and found it a bit noisy on Saturday night.

That the interior was more traditional in style and not been hyper-modernised – apart from the bathroom which was super fresh. Extra plus for the excellent shower. Our room was quite small but had very comfortable beds. Nice breakfast room and good breakfast. Charming back yard, open to guests. Really nice area in the older part of Gothenburg with beautiful houses and parks. Easy to find parking on the same street. We would definitely stay there again.

Nothing to complain about. Our room could have been bigger but just for an overnight stay it was perfect.

The hotel is in the perfect location, situated right next to the city centre and all the fabulous restaurants. It's very close to public transport too. The hotel staff were very friendly, and happily accommodated our requests (e.g. we had a very late check-in). The room was beautiful and clean, with very comfortable beds. Breakfast was included, which was a great bonus – it was really yummy and fresh (mostly fair trade too!). Would definitely stay again :)
