Avalon Hotel

Avalon Hotel is centrally located in Gothenburg. It’s close to square, the shops and restaurants, and it’s conveniently close to the central station, mall and at walkable distance to the ferry. I stayed here and took the ferry to the island. I loved the rooms and the layout and design. It has paintings and pictures everywhere and that was a nice touch. Heard about the nice rooftop but I guess I will have to back again in summer. The breakfast buffet was great and I also loved the bar . The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. I loved the stay and will go back again.

Great location and rooms! It’s an older hotel and there some eccentric art in the halls and room, but worth the price. Very clean and comfortable!

Located very centrally for anything you may want to do in Göteborg, wonderful breakfast. Bar was lively and open late. Very close to several beautiful parks for walking as well as shopping and several nice restaurants.Staff was incredibly helpful, with mapped suggestions of local attractions. Not a single complaint!

Such great staff at reception and the restaurant. Very comfortable, clean rooms and breakfast was delicious.|I have stayed here before and would definitely stay again and would recommend it to others. |Terrific location in the heart of city. Great walking location.

Fantastic hotel in central Gothenburg. The avenue is basically outside the door and the famous Saluhallen right outside the door. Pleasant and helpful staff at the reception. The rooms are of a very high standard, just like the restaurant.

Great hotel to enjoy a fantastic city. We really had a delightful stay at the Avalon, and would recommend to couples/families looking to explore Gothenburg. Centrall located, right outside the Express bus stop to/from the Airport. Great restaurant/bar. Breakfast is spot on, and staff are friendly and always keen to help! Thanks to everyone at the property for making it such a memorable stay :)

Fantastic location in the heart of the City. The staff were friendly and welcoming. The rooms were bright and clean, with all amenities. A fantastic bar & restaurant. I will be back here next time I travel, be it for business or pleasure!

We were in Gothenburg for just one night, and the Avalon was a great choice. It was a nice location, and the room was stylishly appointed and the bed was very comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the breakfast buffet was very good.

Christmas Eve. We arrived very late at the hotel, but check in had already been done by my brother earlier in the day, so it was just to walk in, take the elevator, open room. Nice, no frills room with a very comfortable king sized (I think) bed. Pillows, covers and sheets were superb -- 5 stars. We slept very well. Bathroom had an interesting solution: if you happened not to close the 2 doors while on/in the toilet and someone knocked on the room door... Hahaa... well... the world is an oyster. The husband in the bathroom, the family at the door, I'm in between. 10 stars forever! Breakfast was great. Anything you'd expect from a luxury breakfast was presented: fresh scramble eggs, meats, pancakes, fruit, cold cuts, cheeses, GF, breads, etc. And the pièce de résistance was seeing my friend Alexander Klingspor's beautiful paintings in the dining room and lobby. Very nice stay.

We booked a room here, last minute. The reservation process was flawless and we were given a fair price as members of Nordic Club. Check in took minutes and we were given a lovely room with free early check in. Views were great and the windows opened. The vibe is super hip and fun. Oddly, the elevator and halls smelled musty and not good. Breakfast buffet did not rival Clarion Post, where we stayed previously but it was a lovely buffet. Marcus went the extra mile to insure our stay was great. Super location. Super quiet night's sleep in room 44.

I really enjoyed staying at this hotel. If you're from the US, it has a vibe similar to a Kimpton property. Hip, but not hipster. Clean. Fun. Decent food, and good bar. Pleasant helpful staff. Convenient walking distance to a lot of dining and shopping. I would definitely stay here again if I return to Gothenburg.

I keep returning to this place every time I am in Gothenburg. I love the atmosphere at the hotel - it feels like a luxury hotel anywhere in the world, yet with a very personal service and touch. I have tried many dishes and they use mostly local groceries and never disappoints me with the quality. One time I've had the best chicken I have eaten, and I think it was from a small farm nearby. It is hard to find good chicken these days but they manage to. I've also had dry aged veal filet that was amazing. Perfectly cooked salmon. The list can go on and on. The staff is always amazing, super service minded and always knows where the meat is from. This is a great place for couples and business people. Not boozy groups.

Good service! The shrimp sandwich was more than OK, but not super! The cod filé was high standard! Friendly and nice atmosphere! Price/quality is almost right!

This review is for the hotel. I stayed here for 2 nights this autumn and I really loved the experience. Its in a beautiful location of Gothenburg and the decor of the hotel is really colourful and quirky. I loved the seated area in the lobby beside the modern style fire, it was really cosy and a really nice spot to sit and do a light bit of work in. There breakfast buffet is lovely. Full continental style which was included in our room price. My room was great, large open plan room, with a bath tub in the centre of it. Rainfall style shower was superb. The bed was very comfortable, loved the choice of 3 pillows, hard to really soft. There is complimentary bottled water and a chocolate waiting for you in your room which always wins my heart over. My only criticism of the room is the lack of privacy you have in the bathroom. The door does not go the entire way, so your a bit exposed and can hear everything :-/ Not exactly romantic haha. I defiantly recommend this to be changed, so I have taken 1 star away.

I have only been to Avalon for their downstairs bar area to get drinks... I have to say that its pretty good for a hotel bar in Gothenburg. It has a trendy vibe and the bar is surrounded by couches, in which you can sit and relax with your friends while sipping on a much needed drink. Shopping is just around the corner day time, and clubs and bars are just a few feet away at night... Thumbs up!

When I first visited Gothenburg we stayed at Avalon. It's right downtown next to Saluhallen at Kungssportsplats and is a well known hotel here in town. They have a top floor pool that hangs out over the roof (with a clear glass bottom), and have a nice bar/restaurant on the first floor. In the summer they open their patio area and it's a very popular place for those people that want to be seen. As far as the hotel goes, it's top notch. They were always extremely helpful, going out of their way any chance they could assist us - from bringing extra towels to bringing us a glass of milk. The rooms are a bit small, but acceptable, and include all the amenities one would expect from a hotel of this caliber. The beds were awesome, the rooms have snacks and a small bar, a fridge, safe, closet and a wet room bathroom. I did find the square toilet a bit weird, but I guess it has something to do with the hotel being designed entirely fung-shui. They have flat panel TV's and English language channels available. If you say there you get breakfast for free, which is totally worth it - it's an amazing spred! Even if you don't stay there, if you're in town go check out the hotel. It's pretty cool just look at from the outside, and it's next to Saluhallen, which is another place you need to check out too. I'd totally stay here again, and I'd recommend it to any friends I had who might come to visit.

Ok this hotel was too cool. All kinds of art that was pleasant, but tiny rooms, a pool that is totally awesome but closes at 6 because the people in the suite have private access at 6. I don't remember the breakfast. My suggestion, don't worry about the place unless you get the suite or you're a design obsessed idiot. If I was going to party like a rockstar in Göteborg, I'd want that suite. You can look down on the street through the glass in the bottom of the pool.

Great hotel although not cheap. Nice decor, great staff, spotlessly clean. Standard room has free wifi, minibar, safe, hairdryer, iron and board, sparkling water, tv, dvd player, walk in wet room with great shower. Breakfast is included in room rate and is superb! Endless choice of buffet food which is very fresh and always topped up. Anything from fresh fruit to cereal, sausage, bacon, swedish meatballs! fancy teas, coffee, breads, croissants. Breakfast will not disappoint! Cant really fault this place apart from tv's could be doing with being replaced and a bar/restaurant price list could be placed in room but these are very minor points and would certainly not put me off staying here again.
