Hotels near Balltorpsgrottan, Molndal

I needed to arrange a conference at the same hotel a trade show was being held. Based on a previous experience I thought all would be ok, I was wrong. The hotel seems to work openly against your actual requirements. I'd asked for rooms to be reserved which proved a problem. I'd said from the outset that we'd require a group dinner with menu choices, this also proved to be a problem which resulted in me needing to find a restaurant nearby who could help. Ridiculous that Gothia towers (at it's size) expects a large group to all eat the same meal with no regards to choice, whereas a local restaurant can accommodate you seems strange to say the least. When arriving at the conference rooms I was taken aback that I wasn't able to meet my contact whom I'd shared so many emails. It was a faceless envelope handover and the mention of 'ask at reception if you need anything'. The only positive from this was a lady called Christina who was able to help locate items that had been shipped ahead, I'm grateful for her help. The breakfast room at the hotel was disorganized chaos, find somewhere to sit by yourself and get on with things. It reminded me of an all you can eat option in a hotel in Egypt years ago. An experience I never repeated, much like this event left me with the same thought!

I was looking for somewhere affordable just a short walk from Chalmers University and ended up staying in this friendly clean updated traditional hotel. Just minutes away from the main streets, a half hour walk to the sea or Botanic Gardens and with a generous breakfast each morning I could not have asked for more. The staff were welcoming when I arrived early for check in after 20+ hour journey and found me a room. There’s a wonderful old school lift up the centre of the original staircase: be prepared to go alone with your suitcase or squeeze in with one friend because that’s all there is room for!

Great service, location and value for money! For only a small additional fee they put up an extra bed in our double room for our son, which made staying here cheaper than at less centrally located hostels in Gothenburg. We also appreciated access to refrigerator, microwave, coffee, tea and cookies in the hallway. The breakfast buffet was quite simple but mainly organic. I also appreciate that Le Mat is a social enterprise who create work for people who are far from the labor market. It makes you sleep even better!

I’m torn between 3 and 4 stars. I liked the size of the room, the fact that the kids could have their own beds (we had a lofted family room), and the professionalism and courtesy of the staff. It was very nice that we could walk to Liseberg and the Universium from the hotel, since those were our two main destinations in Gothenburg. Breakfast was good. Not the best breakfast buffet I had in Sweden, but still good. There was quite a large selection so everyone found something to enjoy. The breakfast area did get rather crowded and noisy in the later part of the morning, but that’s probably to be expected in a hotel of this size. They seemed very sensitive to food allergies and restrictions, though I don’t have first hand experiences to report there. The maids did a great job cleaning the bathroom, vacuuming, and the linens were clean. The room really needed a deep cleaning, though. The wooden floor had engrained dirt and was sticky, the loft staircase handrail felt sticky, and the do not disturb sign was soiled. (It looked like someone sneezed on it.) This hotel was the only one in Sweden where I felt I had to keep my shoes on in my room so my feet didn’t get soiled. That really affected how I felt about my stay. Room cleanliness is very important to me. Also, only one window opened and only a few inches. The other was locked shut. The weather was quite warm while we were there and it would have been nice to open both windows. I didn’t enjoy that any kind of room cleaning or linen replacement had to be requested by 10 pm the night before. I am finding that this is a more and more common trend in hotels but on the other hand it wasn’t the case for the hotels where I stayed in Stockholm and Orsa. I’m not sure that I’d stay here again. Of the three hotels I experienced in Sweden, this is the only one I’d hesitate to return to.

Flora is a small charmy hotel close to city centre, shopping, Avenyen etc. Rooms OK, beds excellent, breakfast wasn't extravagant in any way but was good, a nice variety on a small bufé-line. Staff was friendly and profesional. Slow elevator and poor coffee in the breakfast-area is the only things worth mentioning on the negative side. Be aware, if arriving by car, parking outside the hotel has to 2 hour limit, and the hotels parking garage is 5-10 mins walk away.

Very nice modern hotel, super convenient location and friendly service! Avalon is on Kungsportplatsen in city center, easy to go around by walk and tram stops are round the corner. Our superior room was nicely furnished, modern design, comfortable beds and huge bathroom. And extra surprise, own balcony. I asked a quiet room and this room really was it. Service at reception and at restaurant was so friendly and attentive. We were first time in Gothenburg and got all the information we needed when we checked in. The breakfast was also good. The Terrace Bar was nice, too and in the morning the breakfast was possible to have outside. Nice! There is a wide collection of art and design at this hotel, we really liked it. We were super convenient and I really can recommend Avalon!

We felt very welcome and relaxed in this beautiful place with a great location. Close to many nice places to visit. Both Majorna and the central city. The staff helped us out to make our stay with a nine month year old baby as convenient as possible!

Had a weekend in Gothenburg with my 5 year old grandson and got a perfect room for us both on the 8th floor. Very friendly staff and a perfect location as a starting point for exploring Gothenburg. We loved it! Maybe a bit pricey, though.

Scandic Europa is the perfect location to stop if you ate going to a concert at the Ullevi stadium. Located right by the main station. The rooms were adequate and the breakfast excellent. We did have a couple of issues that were immediately sorted out so nothing negative to say. We left very early in the morning, Uber was on time and we were provided with breakfast boxes. Overall a very good choice.
