The location is quite good close to the train station. Try to get a room with a view over the lake. The reception may be crowded in the morning and early evening, and the two elevators does not cope. The kids play room is on a separate floor nowhere near reception or restaurant. WiFi with VPN tunnel may be extremely... More

Good location downtown Jönköping and nice to see the neighbor restaurant that now is direct to the hotel. But room standard and overall design needs updating. Price is far to high for this poor room standard. Next time we will look for something else.

A nice hotel in the middle of town. Walking distans to every thing. The railway station is just 5 min to walk to. But you don't hear the trains for the hotel. It's near to some museums like the Match museum and Viktor Rydberg museum about 5 min walking distans. Ther is also ner to the cenrtal shoping area about... More

Hotle is up to usual Scandic standards and breakfast is amazing - vast choice and great Lofbergs coffee! Located right in the middle of town which also serves as its comedown. We stayed over Friday and SAturday whilst attending family wedding. We were on the 6th floor on the side street and teh noise from revellers and nightclubs was horrendous.... More

I had a single room, it was good, but little to small for me, will be great if will ahve maybe 2 square meters more. Rooms designed in modern style. You... More

As the title says, the hotel is in a great central location and on-street parking is free after 6pm. Very friendly receptionist who gave us some general info and maps of the city. Most importantly, she gave a great restaurant reccomendation for "Twin City" just along the road. Room was up to the usual Scandic standard. Our last night in... More

Clean room with work desk and a bed. Nothing extra ordinary as most Scandic Hotels, but comfortable and I slept very well. Very helpful staff and a plentyful breakfast.

I stayed in this hotel for 2 weeks whilst visiting my daughter. It was very comfortable and staff were very helpful. They put on a fantastic breakfast with anything you would want...with healthy options including organic and gluten free. You can even pack your own lunch at a small cost, although no one seemed to worry about charging for this.... More

The hotel is ok, good value for money. However, the location is next to a pedestrian area with pubs and discos, which makes it quite noisy on weekends (we stayed there Friday - Saturday).
