    cleanliness issue
    slow bar service

    I enjoyed the spacious playroom for kids, which kept my children entertained while I relaxed. The breakfast was excellent with a good variety every morning. I found the staff friendly and helpful, making our stay comfortable overall.

    We found the cleanliness of the room lacking. The bar service was slow, affecting our experience.

    spacious playroom
    cozy room
    uncomfortable bed

    The spacious playroom kept our kids entertained, making it easy for my fiancée and me to relax. After a day exploring the city, we enjoyed our clean and cozy Quadruple Room, especially spending quality time together after a fun-filled day.

    My wife says that the bed was less comfortable than expected.

    comfortable room
    helpful reception
    rich breakfast
    limited storage
    poor cooling

    I chose the Superior Twin Room at Scandic Opalen for its proximity to Ullevi stadium during a Coldplay concert. The room offered stunning views and had a decent amount of space. The breakfast buffet impressed me with its variety and quality, especially the hot options. The reception staff were warm and helpful, making check-in smooth. On the downside, the air conditioning struggled a bit to keep the room cool, especially during our warm stay. Although it was clean, the rooms felt a tad cramped with limited storage space. I'd also recommend incorporating more in-room amenities, like a small fridge for convenience. Despite some room for improvement, the experience was enjoyable and I'd consider returning.

    lack of toiletries
    limited options

    Spectacular views and a solid breakfast

    I was really impressed by the amazing views from my room on the 13th floor and the breakfast spread was excellent, although it could be a bit limiting for vegetarians. The cleanliness throughout my stay was top-notch, and I appreciated the option to book breakfast through the app without any interruptions. However, the lack of toiletries in the bathroom was a downside that could use some attention.

    suitable accommodation

    Just a suitable option for a short layover in Gothenburg with best value. The pillows weren't great but I managed to get some sleep. Bring your own toiletries since the bathroom supplies were lacking.
