Elite Plaza Hotel Gothenburg

This hotel is easily one of the best in Göteborg/Gothenburg. I've stayed here a few times and never been disappointed. The rooms are decently spacious, well-kept and comfortable. The staff are friendly and helpful and the breakfast is simply superb. There's a small but well-equipped gym and a sauna/spa in the cellar. The location is perfect and most of the city's sites are within walking distance. I booked through book.com and the room rate was among the lowest in the city center. Highly recommendable.

We stayed here for 3 nights over New Years and had a lovely stay. The hotel is really grand looking inside, and the service was more than adequate. We stayed on the 2nd floor overlooking the street and we did hear the lorries first thing in the morning dropping off supplies or emptying bottle banks which did wake us up early unfortunately. If you’re after a quiet room, request one not on the roadside. The room’s were lovely though. More than enough space and bathrooms were clean and fresh too. Breakfast was great each morning with a wide selection of fruit, cooked foods, cold selection and cereals etc. Location was excellent too for getting around Gothenburg easily - it’s in a central location and only a 10 minute walk from the train station and the bus stop where the Airport bus drops you off (get off at Kungsportsplatsen stop - this is where it picks you up too to take you back to the airport). We would definitely come back here if we come to Gothenburg again. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

I had the pleasure of spending a day with my work colleagues at Elite Plaza. Even though the service was a bit rough around the edges when the serving of coffee and sandwiches was pre lunch it was a really good day. The Christmas lunch in their wine cellar was truly amazing. The food was outstanding and the setting and service was really nice. Classic Julbord with some finesse and great vegetarian/vegan alternative.

Very nice holiday in Christmas, nice hotel and staff. It’s situated in the best area of Gothenburg. I’m from Gothenburg so I choose that area as well. The hotel is very beautiful

Amazing staff... great hotel..and clean rooms. Awesome breakfast!

Have been staying at this hotel for 10+ years and I’m sad to write this review. In terms of the positives, the staff are lovely, always positive and friendly. ||Unfortunately, the issues are in a few specific areas. ||1. Bathrooms tired: black mould in the shower/bath, the screen was loose and water sprayed outside onto the WC and floor every time we used the shower. ||2. breakfast: horrific experience each day; the staff don’t allocate seating so maybe individuals/couples taking 4-seat tables; kept running out of basis like bread?!? I wanted a fried egg on the second morning and was told “we only make one batch and when they’re gone, they’re gone”. So at 09:15, there were no fried eggs. Let’s be honest, these are fried eggs, not Rolex watches. ||3. Bedrooms: some of the bedrooms have windows so small that there is barely any daylight coming in. Anyone who is not getting enough Vitamin D, this isn’t the place for you!!||Such a shame, as I love the location but will need to start looking for a new go-to hotel in Gothenburg.

My daughter and I had an amazing stay at Elite Plaza Hotel in Gothenburg! The room was absolutely beautiful and the staff were so welcoming and helpful. The breakfast served every day was delicious and really set us up for the day. The old building had so much character and charm, and the location was perfect with everything easily accessible. A special thank you to Lotta from the front desk for suggesting some amazing places to eat - her recommendations were spot on! I can't wait to come back and stay at Elite Plaza Hotel again. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Gothenburg! You will be so happy you stayed at the Elite Plaza!

Quality and history, friendly staff, fabulous breakfasts, close to harbour and shops. This was an absolute week of bliss - thank you for the experience

Terrible! Our room had very small windows facing a VERY noisy alley. The interior design feels old and has "dents" here and there which was very surprising!! Cleaning looks very sloppy with dirty mirrors and dirty bathroom details. Hotel breakfast needs a update from only serving meat with no options for a vegetarian. Also had a VERY rude experience with the bar personel at Bishops arms on the bottom floor and noisy bar! The service was not very accommodating and I would only recommend the hotel for its cool lobby or location. I would never recommend this place :(

The Plaza is situated in a very central location in Gothenburg. The building is truly a grand old building. It dates from 1889 and considerable effort appears to have been taken to preserve the old fashioned charm The service when checking in was swift and polite. Was given my room within a few minutes of arriving. The room was on the fourth floor and I was pleasantly surprised that it was fairly big. The decor was not entirely new and modern but it did fit the style of the hotel. The room had a good sized desk,comfortable chairs as well as a very comfortable bed. There were plenty of lamps in the room but would have been nice to have a light switch controlling all lamps (now I had to walk around the room to turn on several lamps). There was no iron, ironing board or coffee/tea making facilities but there was a sign at the desk that one could ask the reception for it - did ask and it was promptly brought to my room. The hotel of course offers free wifi and a pretty good selection of TV channels. The bathroom was fairly small but still sufficient. It had a tub (and there were bathrobes in the room).Seeing that it is a five star hotel I would have expected better quality shower gel, shampoo etc, now it was the standard stuff one finds in all Elite hotels. The hotel has a nice pub (the same chain as in many other elite hotels, the Bishops Arms) in the basement and there is also a very nice restaurant. The spa and fitness centre are also above average. Breakfast was not excellent but not as poor as some others have stated. The selection of bread, cold food etc was good. The hot food was limited but good quality. A bit annoying that they charge extra for additional things such as some variety's of coffee (like lattes etc) as well as omelette's, pancakes and such. Service and quality wise I would not rate the hotel as a five star hotel but considering the price level it is not priced as a five star hotel either so to me it is really great for the price paid.

First night was not good. Too cold and there was a club making fours through the floors until 2 in the morning on a thursday. The service on the other hand is excellent and they are eager to make sure you have a pleasant time. So the next two nights were great in an other room! Thanks

Some of the best bourbon old fashions I have ever had. Good location easy to get around staff is super friendly.

A lovely hotel. Rooms are of good size, well appointed. Front desk staff are professional, efficient, and friendly. Since a group of us were visiting the city regularly, the staff remembered our names and each person's preference for room. The restaurant (Swea Hof) is one of the best in Gothenburg, and if you know Gothenburg, you know this city has no shortage of good restaurants. Swea Hoff's menu leans on fish / shell fish, but meat entries are excellent too. Every dish is exquisitely presented, a feast for your eyes and mouth. Oh, same room for desserts, Valrhona chocolate mousse is quite addictive. There is also a bar / restaurant in the basement, good quality burgers and fish and chips. You will see a lot of locals hanging out there on pay day. Conference rooms are available, including one in an old "cellar"/vault. Swea Hoff does catering for these meeting rooms, and they don't miss any details. If you drive, valet parking is available. Highly recommended. There is another Elite Hotel in Gothenburg on street Avenyn, but I prefer this one.

Hotel and room were a bit old. Well located in the city. Didn't try the restaurant. Staff was very helpful.
