The room was small but had enough space for two adults who weren't spending a ton of time there. The included breakfast buffet was genuinely one of the best I've ever seen at a hotel. Huge array of options hot and cold and the pancake/crepes with whipped cream and strawberry jam were a hit! Only reason we didn't rank five stars was the shower. It was cramped and a bit slippery and the shower head was not high up and didn't angle into the shower; it angled straight down and couldn't be adjusted because there isn't a real shower door or curtain, just a pane of glass that swings out and is approximately one third the width of where a shower door should be!

It is a newly constructed building, across from the new train station on a street that now has a string of new office and apartment buildings. The lobby and lobby restaurant area is a large open space flanked by floor to ceiling glass, which makes the space feel open and airy. The guest rooms are very large, almost American in size, but are still very Scandinavian in style - wood laminate floors with minimalist, but functional & comfortable furniture. The beds are very comfortable as well and the bathrooms are very well appointed. The staff is very friendly and helpful as well.

(This review is only about the breakfast buffet, as it is the only thing that I have experience of…read moreat this place. Just so you know!) The place is located in the centrum of Uppsala, just across the street from the Uppsala Central Station. Thus it will serve very well as accommodation if you come by train or by bus. Kind staff, a very nice atmosphere and a fresh interior. The breakfast buffet is included in the hotel price, but if you are a hostel guest (or if you just randomly drop in from the street as I did, in because I wanted to have a little bit of a morning luxury) you can buy the buffet for 79kr. I think it was totally worth every "krona". The buffet was very good; there were a large assortment of muesli and yoghurt, different types of bread, cheese, jam etc. Also boiled eggs and fresh fruits. And what was probably the best part: you could make your own Belgian-style waffles! And of course add some nutella, peanut butter, whipped cream etc. to it. Yum! Tea, coffee, hot chocolate and juice are included. In addition, they also offer gluten free breakfast. It's the swedish way - no discrimination. The atmosphere was cosy and calm. They also have a shelf full of books if you like to read while enjoying your "frukost". Very good breakfast buffet for a reasonable price at a good location!

I arrived early in the morning and they accommodated me by letting me check in early. I asked for a…read morequiet room and they delivered. I really appreciate the service. The room is small but functional. Beds are soft and comfy. Free wi-fi. It's a bare bones room but I won't be here for long so it's fine. Central location is walking distance to restaurants, bars, and stores.

Food in the bistro is about avrage but could be better and not much to choice from if you are a vegeterian or only eat chicken and fish. Breakfast is just above average and it dos the job for most people but the downside is they cut up so much fruits and after the pandemic and especially in Sweden it feels unhygienic and unsafe to eat. But in all breakfast is good. The rooms are ok nothing special but good and the cleaning staff is super friendly and helpful. The gym is good and has all you need to keep in shape, but the sauna and the showers need a makeover and more regular cleaning During my 3 nights the showers was not clean even if i told them after the first night that the show was full of hair and you could see the hair was from more intimate parts. So if the clean they showers, put up some hooks for towels, fix the bucket in the sauna like buying a new one, put a thermometer in the sauna and maybe add some hocks or shelving, a hairdryer the sauna would be a great pleace visit again. The best thing would be a phone with a direct line to reception so you could order drinks like water, coffee and fruit and so one without having to leave the sauna area as it is on a sperat floor in the building from the reception.

The room was nice enough (with a great view of the Cathedral), but the bathroom wasn't the best (that quarter-circle shower enclosure was tight). The hotel has some limited parking, but it's difficult to get into (I wish we hadn't had a car in Uppsala, because it was very different to drive around so many pedestrians and cyclists and even harder to park). We called the hotel when we got close and they explained how to get the last spot in the garage. The service was great (the staff member at the front desk was very helpful and nice), and the breakfast in the morning was very nice, as well. But it's really all about the location - so central, walkable to everything in Uppsala! Overall, a good place to stay in Uppsala, but you'll pay a little extra for the location!

Pros: -Location, it was very close to Downtown Uppsala and there were many cafes/restaurants and shops within walking distance. -20 minute walk from the Uppsala Central station -Free breakfast with a good amount of items to choose from. Bread, eggs, Swedish pancakes, bacon, spreads, juices, and cookies -Comfy beds and decent TV -Large windows Cons: -The tiniest wet room in the world. I've never seen a bathroom like this. The shower head was in a corner and wet everything, including the toilet and sink. Virtually impossible to even fit one person. There was a great flood after every shower. -No AC (like every other hotel in Sweden)
