Welcoming Oasis
The staff was very welcoming, kind, and helpful. This is a small, beautiful space with art throughout. We enjoyed a drink in the coolness of the courtyard. Breakfast was lovely. We felt safe and secure. It seemed like a tasteful example of Göteborg hospitality.

The hotel staff were pleasant and gave good service but we got a room facing the back alley where construction was ongoing and it was impossible to relax in the room between 7-16. Also, the standard double room did not have a fridge, which was disappointing.

I had a fantastic stay at Hotel Vanilla. The place was incredibly clean, peaceful, and conveniently located just a short walk from the city's main street. The atmosphere was serene, making it perfect for a relaxing trip. The breakfast was diverse and delicious, offering a great start to each day. Overall, I couldnât have asked for a better experience and will definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit. Highly recommended!

Good location friendly staff but not ideal
Good location, clean with an average hotel breakfast. However the twin room we had was small and looked nothing like the pictures. There wasnât much space to navigate round the bottom of the beds. There was building work going on next door which started at 7 in the morning, so check this before you travel. Asked for a different twin room but they didnât have another one.

Greit, litt slitt, veldig sentralt hotell
Greit hotell, veldig bra og sentral beliggenhet. God frokost, hyggelig bakgÄrd og fellesomrÄder. Ikke sÄ veldig koselig rom, ganske slitt, men greie senger, ganske rent og stort rom til prisen (familierom). KjÞkkenkrok med kokeplater, vannkoker og kjÞleskap og det man trenger av tallerkener og glass osv.
Der luktet sur rÞyk pÄ natta, det hjalp Ä lufte, men mye stÞy fra en utvendig AC e.l. Ingen Av pÄ rommet.
Ett varningens finger till kudden i sÀngen. Och madrasserna Àr alldeles för mjuka men hotellet i sig Àr vÀldigt bra

Generelt godt hotel med meget fin beliggenhed i Göteborgs centrum. LÊkker og varieret morgenmadsbuffet. Venligt og imÞdekommende personale.
VÊrelset var dog ikke ordentligt rengjort (nullermÊnd flere steder) og diverse sÊbedispensere i badevÊrelset var tomme. Vi gjorde opmÊrksom pÄ dette ved ankomst og vÊrelset blev stÞvsuget, men sÊbedispenserene var stadig tomme under hele opholdet.

Trevligt hotell med centralt lÀge
Trevligt litet hotell med fantastiskt centralt lÀge. Trevliga rum med sköna sÀngar men bÀddmadrasserna var i mjukaste laget för oss.
God och varierad frukost med generösa tider.
Fanns inte AC men dÀremot flÀktar pÄ rummet som gjorde det ganska uthÀrdligt i vÀrmen.
UppmÀrksam och hjÀlpsam personal.

Manglende levering af rene hÄndklÊder og manglende levering af rene kaffekopper og kaffepulver pÄ vÊrelse
Kunne godt have brugt et lille kÞleskab pÄ vÊrelse
Dejlig gÄrdhave og venlige mennesker og betjening
