Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Very nice hotel. Friendly staff, awesome breakfast, close to City Centre and public transport. Weekend breakfast was open from 7am - 11am and weekdays 6:30am- 9:30am. we have missed breakfast on Monday as were not told about different operating hours. Our fault as should have asked.

Thank you for a nice review! I am sorry that you missed your breakfast. Lunch starts at 11.30 on weekdays but what is better than a nice breakfast?

The first impression of the hotel is that it has a very magnificent position. If the weather is fine. Otherwise, it suffers of a lot of wind. The surroundings are quite nice, but the location is not exactly central so there are not many places for eating that are within distance (and that are affordable) (not at least, if I would be near the central station!)
When checking in, I got a concierge that was quite talkative, but pleasant. However, it was midnight and maybe it was a bit late for the chit chat.
The hotel interior seems a bit outdated, I got the feeling to be in a place where time has stood still since the 80s. Nice though the connection with the fort remains both in terms of miniature available to admire, but also to see it just almost integrated in the hotel building. Nice also with the historical traces of the brewery where the hotel has been placed. Let's say that the hotel has a great history!
My room was sadly having incredibly tiny windows that one could barely open, towards the rocks. The room decor was simple but functional. The room quite big with a decent desk, seating place and a good bed. Also the toilet was spacious. Everything was tidy.
Breakfast was quite standard, with a good choice of all the things one usually want at breakfast. One could eat on a suspended veranda with a view over the bridge and the älv. In a sunny day it must be fantastic.
I think the position of the hotel was quite convenient for work purposes, so I wouldn't mind trying it again and check if I find some more interesting places to eat dinner or more of what the hotel can offer to its guests!

We’ve been staying at several Choice-hotels in Gothenburg and keep returning to this one. Always something unexpected or extra for breakfast (only a small minus for lack of coffee selections). Staff exceptionally nice (a special recognition of Fedor at the reception who showed our kid the popcorn machine).
A small but ok sauna/jacuzzi (steamer not working during our stay).
This hotels also provides charging for electric vehicles at a cost. Parking is 80SEK/night.
The hotel is situated in an intereting partnof Göteborg with walking distance to ferry and tram.
Nice for families.

Great location - just a few Inured walk to the tram. The water and bridge views from the hotel are amazing. From the hotel you can walk along the water for miles. It’s a very pleasant neighborhood. During the weekend the nearby restaurants on the water have live music and reasonably priced bar food and drinks. The hotel restaurant is surprisingly good for breakfast (big range) and dinner. Later at night it is the only option and a good one too. The staff are friendly and helpful. Feels like a nice culture. The rooms are a bit tired but overall I would still give it 5 stars as the location is great and the service is excellent. It is also reasonably priced.

The experience with this hotel didn't start very well, as I arrived pretty much early for check-in. Be aware that check-in starts at 15:00! After I finally checked in at 15:00, I found out that my room wasn't really clean. I mean the toilet was obviously used previously and wasn't cleaned afterward. So I went to the reception and they changed the room for me.
Apart from this incident, I had a really nice experience there. It was around Christmas time, and they served glöögi and ginger cookies in the lobby every evening. The room was warm and cozy. Bed soft and comfortable. Personal is very friendly. Breakfast is delicious with a wide range of options. The sauna has an additional fare though.
The hotel is in a historic building with a spectacular view of the riverside. It is a glorious place, I could say.

This hotel is fairly new so everything was in good shape. Reception staff were very helpful. Good for one night but any longer is difficult as there is no space for clothes storage in the room and everything must be left in your suitcase. First time we have encountered this problem anywhere. No tea/coffee facilities in the room. You can make yourself a cuppa downstairs but they charge you an expensive price to do this. Breakfast was OK with cold meats, cheeses and only boiled eggs. No bacon, sausages etc. This place was reasonably priced which is probably why we stayed but we will stay at a place with more character next time.

The location on the waterfront is picturesque but a distance from town. Taxi to and from the Central Station cost about $28. A few restaurants in the immediate neighborhood and a huge bridge, but that's about it. Most guests seemed to have cars. We didn't, so bought 72-hour passes for boat, buses, and trams. Room was decent size and bathroom had a bathtub, which pleased my wife, but the window looked out on a grey rock wall, and the room was quite dark. The breakfast spread was quite good. The lobby offered several games for kids. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Stayed here one night january 2024 on a businesstrip. Arrived late in the evening and left early morning.
Room was quite old but clean. Bed was confy eventhough the bedding was bit rough. There was only combined hair&body wash available, no conditioner or bodylotion.
When looking out the window in the morning, I was happy that I only spent one night in the room..
Breakfast & lunch at the hotel restaurant were both really good.

My husband was working outside Gothenburg so we spent two nights at the Waterfront hotel. The parking was easy and only 50 kr. for 24 hrs. Unfortunately, the restaurant was not open Sunday evening or for lunch, I assume due to the pandemic. We had a nice room on the 5th floor. Our only complaints were that the description of the hotel lists a fridge and microwave in the room. There was only a minibar that had been emptied. We could use that but there was not much space. Also the glasses in the room and the bedside tables were TINY. . . . not sure why. Otherwise, the bed and bath were good and we had an enjoyable stay. We also had a nice view toward the river and the bridge. Breakfast was good except for the cold scrambled eggs.
