This hotel is a former Cumulus Hotel in two buildings on both sides of the street. There is a tunnel connecting the buildings.

Before a two-night stay here, we stayed one night in the nearby Scandic Station. The public spaces at this Scandic City are much better. The reception, the gym, and the Moe's Bar are located in one building. The other building has the pool with saunas, the breakfast room, and the Bord restaurant.

The rooms are a little bit outdated, although they have the newer Cumulus decor with light green curtains and no blue walls.

We booked the only Superior Sauna room which is the best room category at this hotel. It is a very spacious room. Actually, it could be called a suite because it has separate living and bedrooms. There are two bathrooms, one with a big dressing room. The sauna is spacious, for 5-6 persons. The only thing which we didn't like was the sofa. It was uncomfortable, worn and should be replaced.

The breakfast was pleasantly calm because of the coronavirus pandemic. The food selection was good.

Our stay had excellent value for 124 euros per night.

Friendly reception staff and nice room in 5th floor. I could go again anytime.

Standard Scandic breakfast selection, kitchen little bit delayed to fill bowls.
Table cleaning need more focus during rush times.

Stayed there for one night. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Rooms looked nothing like you book online and we were disappointed in that.

Breakfast was included but was mediocre at best. Good location to center of town.

Stayed here two nights on a weekend break. Very good location in city center, close to the main bus and railway stations. The hotel has their own parking area which is easily accessible but unfortunately not very spacious, at least not if you own a big car. Both check-in and check-out were very efficient and friendly and we received all necessary information about the hotel. Our room was standard, cozy, well-kept and clean with good quality amenities but not very modern. The bed was large and comfortable. Most importantly, the room was quiet. Breakfast was standard Scandic quality, with a large selection and ample choice of produce. We also dined at the on-site restaurant and found the food very tasty and very reasonably priced and the service friendly and efficient. The hotel is somewhat in need of renovation, there are signs of wear and tear here and there but overall impression was O.K.

This is a good standard hotel, room was good, super nice staff and OK breakfast with fantastic coffee - Swedish blend :) Walking in an underground tunnel to get to the breakfast room did not bother me. It was easy to find. I would certainly stay here again.
