Elite Stadshotellet Luleå

The hotel is okay but the rooms are incredibly hot and there is no A/C. I understand that it’s probably unusual that A/C is needed up in Norrland, but still, 20 degrees outside and 35 inside isn’t nice. The bedsheets on my side had skid marks which wasn’t great either :S Good and varied breakfast though.

We had a lovely room #409 that has a turret (round wall) and balcony overlooking the park across the street . Bed was very comfortable and the room clean . It would be 5 but this is our 3rd vista to this hotel and Things are a bit outdated throughout but breakfast was wonderful as well . It’s a short walk to town (you are basically in town so it’s very short ) ||They need a remodel but otherwise a great spot !!!

We spent a night in this venerable four star hotel situated along the main square of Luleå in the beginning of July 2025. The large luxury double room we had chosen was facing the inner courtyard and featured the smallest bathroom we have seen in many years. If you are overweight you can hardly turn around and will have difficulties to get in and out of the bathtub to take your shower. There is no anti-slip pattern in the tub so be careful. The breakfast is served in the classically styled ball-room with its giant crystal chandeliers and features a wide range of culinary choices of excellent quality. The staff in the reception is very helpful. There is ample street parking in the area. The hotel garage is paying and has only 175 cm safe entrance height.

Great location (smack middle of city center) Friendly staff Ok breakfast (not super, not bad) Ok room BUT if you live here during summer prepare to pretty much die from heatstroke in the room. I didn’t have a thermometer to check our room temperature but my estimation would be around 35+ Celsius. We complained about the heat and got an additional fan but..that didn’t do much. If Elite had air conditioning then this hotel would get 4/5 on everything. Maybe even more…

Very good hotel The biggest surprise when I saw breakfast hall. Amazing old hall. Made breakfast even more special. Food quality is superb Service is close to perfect Rooms clean and tidy

A nice historical building in the very centre of the city. Friendly staff, some of them even spoke Finnish at the reception. Rooms were quite worn, though. Breakfast was really good and it was served in a spacious and magnificent ballroom. Would be excellent if they upgraded the rooms a bit.

Worst night in 7 years Lapland. It was a summer day and weekend but then you need to avoid this place. It was loud party at the Bryggan until 2am (when I called the police), it was at least 28degrees in my room!!! All night. With the fan on! Horrible. A worn down bed in a warn down dirty room. Sorry. Just no! The hotel has seen its better days, everything is 20 years old, the half of the hotel seems like a paused construction site (terrass area or the hotel side facing the sea). Even with a Asbest container under the rooms windows. I though about sleeping in my car. 1 star extra for the breakfast. But just go to another hotel with aircon, with clean rooms, with updated furniture etc. The hotels potential like some many millions SEK away..

Had a very nice stay! The breakfast was excellent and the rooms are nice. My room even had a bathtub. The bed may be a bit on the softer side for my liking but that’s personal preference.
