This property was top of our list! It was so convenient being in the city center. There was so much to do in the area and a lot of things were with walking distance such as the Arktikum (great place to see the Aurora in the city!), Candle Bridge, shopping and food. The hotel was clean and I loved the design, the breakfast was good and I love that Robert’s Coffee was right down stairs. We will be back!

One of the best!
This was a great experience. We got there early and they held our bags for us, and let us check in early. Breakfast buffet was great, as was dinner. Right in the middle of town!

Fabulous place to stay, they couldn’t do more for us. Having a disabled member of our family trip this was important for us and they were very helpful. Town around us was lovely and many places to eat out and also go to get a drink.
