MJ's

Great hotel location, walking distance from train station and very close to Malmö city center. Amazing choice for breakfast in very nice looking restaurant. Definitely a great choice of hotel to stay in Malmö with very unique style.

This quirky old hotel with its pink flamingo theme was a delight to stay in. We stayed in the largest room, a corner room with multiple windows facing in two directions on the top floor, room 402. It had a king size 4 poster bed, a living area with capacious and comfortable couch and chairs, and a spacious, pristine bathroom. A small wardrobe easily accommodated our hanging clothing, but there was not much space for other clothes.||In addition to photos of 402, I took a photo of rooms 406 and of 407 (while housekeeping was making up the rooms) - I will attach them to this review; they will be single room pics at the end in that order. ||The bar area is warm and inviting, and the breakfast room is the most charming we have ever seen. The breakfast offered fantastic variety, with all foods properly labelled to avoid allergies – without a doubt, the best of all of the 5-star hotels we stayed in on this trip.||The hotel’s location was exquisite – quiet at night (if you get a room far from the bar downstairs) but in the heart of the old town within walking distance to the most popular sites. We put on 25,000 steps in our one full day in Malmo, and saw most of the key sites. Malmo surprised us with its old-world charm and friendliness on the one hand, and its progressive, innovative vibe on the other.||The shortcomings in this hotel were: 1. The early checkout, time of 11 AM (most hotels of this calibre allow check out at noon); 2. The lack of face cloths in the bathroom, not unusual for European hotels, but inconvenient (we brought our own); and 3. The lack of telephones in the rooms - we had to get dressed and go to the reception to ask even the simplest and shortest of questions. Those shortcomings are the reason for my 4 star rating.||Overall, the positives outweighed the shortcomings by a wide margin, and we would recommend this hotel.

Honestly, I cannot speak highly enough of MJ's and my experience there. For one, it is a lovely hotel with stylish comfortable rooms and a great breakfast in a good location, but what really set it apart was the care and attention to detail of the staff. I emailed in advance about it being my girlfriend's birthday during our stay, and they went the extra mile to make it special. I would 100% stay there again and I would 100% recommend to friends, family or anyone else considering staying there!

From the moment we stepped into MJ’s, we knew we were somewhere special—but it was Room 202 that truly stole our hearts. The atmosphere felt more local and authentic than anywhere else we stayed in Sweden. With the French doors that opened above the main entrance, we had the perfect perch to watch the city’s rhythm—cobblestone streets alive with energy, laughter drifting up from the streets below. It felt like stepping into the past and the present all at once. I couldn't help but imagine my ancestors walking those very same streets 200 years ago. The room itself was enormous—airy, stylish, and welcoming. The bathroom was especially spacious, with clean lines and thoughtful touches. Even the flamingo that stared me down from its perch above the toilet made me laugh—it was quirky and memorable in the best way. Breakfast? Absolutely phenomenal. We still talk about it. The variety, quality, and presentation were on par with some of the best dining experiences we had on the entire trip. And the staff? So attentive, so warm—genuinely kind people who made us feel like we belonged there. Everything we needed was within walking distance—shops, restaurants, and beautiful little corners of the city. But truthfully, once we landed at MJ’s, we barely wanted to leave. Next time, Room 202 will be our base of operations for exploring more of Malmö and the Skåne countryside. Thank you, MJ’s, for making our trip unforgettable.

The rooms are nice, clean and spacious. The location is superb, but you absolutely have to earn your customers that this hotel transforms into a nightclub in the weekend evenings, with the risk of keeping you awake until past 1 in the night. We had requested a quiet room, but we got a room on the ground floor with the extremely loud music keeping us awake, when we wanted to sleep. If it was coming from another nightclub or something not in this hotels control it would be understandable, but it felt particularly bad being kept awake by your own host. We had a super friendly interaction with the staff afterwards, who refunded us a night for our inconvenience. Hoping to stay again and update our review in the future <3

I absolutely loved everything about the hotel, including such friendly and attentive staff and incredible breakfast. I’d definitely stay here again! MJ’s offered me everything I’d need to feel like a home away from home. I highly recommend it to anyone who’s planning to stay in Malmo.

I came in this hotel for lunch. The food is very good. With the dagen lunch the main course was served with salad & focaccia and coffee & sweet bakery.

We stayed at this hotel for two nights and had a wonderful experience. The rooms were clean, beautiful, and well-equipped with a fridge, hairdryer, and iron—everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The beds were especially comfortable, ensuring a great night’s sleep. There was no kettle in room but you could go to the bar and request hot water, coffee and tea. Breakfast was a highlight; astonishing dining area , delicious food and varied options. The hotel’s location is also very convenient. It’s just a 10-minute walk from central train station and less than 5min to the old town. Definitely recommended staying in here and looking forward to coming back soon.

MJ's is cool, no doubt. We loved the vibe and the food. The downsides are that they don't have air conditioning, the lobby turns into a busy bar with DJ at night, and they have inappropriate sexual photos in the hall and rooms if you are bringing children. I would stay here again on a couple's outing. Not for families.

If you want fun, colorful spaces, a hopping bar, cozy fireplace and softly glowing candles set to the sway of music, this could be your spot. We arrived on a Friday evening and the joint was jumping. It's a little confusing when you come in, because you enter into a bustling bar, people everywhere and then finally figure out that a small stand at the end of the bar is where to check in. There wasn't enough seating in the bar when we arrived, so we came back later. There is a restaurant around the back, as well as the elevators/ stairs to get to rooms. We did an upgraded room with the seating area, so it was huge with fun decor. Something I'd never seen before is the double doors. And I don't mean like French doors. I mean you unlock one door and then there is another door. Because out in the hall, there is often fairly loud music playing, so with both doors, and the rest of how it is designed, it's almost sound proof. You hear more through the windows than the door to the hall. I almost left 3 stars because of the bathroom. No curtain, it is a bathtub shower and so the floor and everywhere else seems to get wet. Also there is a fun flamingo in the bathroom on the counter, but he is bolted down, so it was a little in the way for a couple people trying to share counter space with all bathroom items. Nice enough staff, but we are also still trying to figure out about an unwarranted charge that we couldn't get figured out on our way out the door--especially since the early morning guy did not speak English. Everyone else seemed to.
