Pier 5 Hotel

I paid way too much for this experience. Very thin walls, my bed shakes when one of the neighbouring doors slam shut and hear it loudly. (They all slam shut by default.) No ventilation whatsoever in the rooms. Literally, zero vents or airflow. You have to keep the window open (it is currently 30 degrees in Aalborg). The heat is fine, I expected it, but the window opens to the pavement and car park and a busy road. So cigarette smokers outside drafts smoke into the room all evening, which sits stale because no airflow. Lots of road and people noise. No fridge, no coffee / tea / cups. TV has no cable or any channels. The shower drained too slowly and it flooded the bathroom to the main bathroom backup drain. The shower has a plastic curtain. Noise is constant, from outside and in.||I have had hostels with a better experience for 1/4 the cost. I can't believe I paid 1500 DKK for this. Would never return.

No air conditioner, no fridge, no kettle, no cup, no closet, no locker. This is a hostel guys, with empty rooms and no facilities (most hostels have more indeed)||There are recycled paper hangers in the room, which bends so easily. Paper hangers are not environmentally friendly, it is just green washing. What happened to the wooden hangers, do they harm the earth, c'mon! And people in the comments say they loved the minimalistic look. Then you can sleep on the pavement, more minimalistic. One comment says this is world-class hotel, loved it :) Yeah it can be, if you have visited only one.

Very good hotel within close proximity of the Ffjord and Aalborg centre, excellent facilities with a minimalistic and environmental friendly feel. Rooms are nice light and spacious, bed was very comfy and you get a pillow menu to select on your preference. Rooms are key coded so no need to carry arounf a key or keycard. Breakfast was good with a vast array of cooked and continental options.

PERFECT HOTEL - SUPERB BREAKFAST I stayed here one night late MAR 2025. There is automatic check-in but also a receptionist that is very help some. There is a bar and restaurant at the hotel. The room was very clean and had all I needed. The bathroom too was clean and got all you need It is quit a quiet hotel, and it is located basically downtown. The breakfast is absolutely awesome. Some of the best I have experienced. I can absolutely recommend a stay here.

Nice hotel, with great breakfast and good bar. The rooms are fine, but the bathroom are small (in our standard room). Located in the heart og Aalborg.

They've done a nice job at pepping up what used to be a very dowdy hotel. They haven't spent a fortune – you can see that – but have still managed to capture the currently ubiquitous 'Warm Nordic' style. ||Positive points:|1. Reasonably priced – we got a good autumn deal for our 3-night stay.|2. Very welcoming staff.|3. Great breakfast buffet.|4. Excellent location – on the waterfront, but really not far at all from the city centre.|5. Good house cocktails.|6. Lovely bathroom products from Meriyaki.|7. A spacious room.||Negative points:|1. Horrid little cardboard cups in the room. What about a couple of glasses?|2. DKK 120 for a small glass of wine in the bar!!!! For goodness' sake.||We would stay here again.

Coming here since multiple years, when Family Bühlmann took over the overall very good experience improofed further. Really nice to be here!

Comfortable but basic. When we first arrived, we were told we had booked two single rooms, although my confirmation said a double bed. It took awhile to eventually correct this, and even then we were not offered the room we booked. |The beds were very comfy, but our room opened right onto the carpark and was next to a pavement where people could peer into our room, which meant our curtains were closed all the time. There are no kettles in the room or basic offerings of tea, and when I asked if it was possible to make myself a cup of tea they wanted to charge me equivalent to £4.50. The bathrooms are also wet rooms, and the showers did you drain well at all, so ended up standing in puddles when using the sink or toilet! Overall, a good location and comfortable beds, but really lacked the small touches you would expect at a hotel like this.
