Great hotel but...
Top location hotel. Which needs tlc. For 100 dollar a night I expect lights to work. shower to be in a new condition and not coming out of the wall. Bathtub was really pathetic better have a luxury walk in shower. Have the curtain rails fixed. I come in this hotel For many years already and can see it degrading. Personnel restaurant bar are all good no complains there. Just for above 100 dollar I expect a bit more quality.

Excellent hotel in great location
Location was excellent - being based at the bus/train stations made travelling to/from the airport with our bags really easy. We were also right by a major tram interchange, so getting around from the hotel was very easy. There is maybe a 25-min walk to one of the key nightlife areas around Avenyn, but that did at least mean it was quiet around the hotel when trying to sleep. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent, really enjoyed it! Only downside for me, is the typically European style of pushing 2 single beds together to make a double... it is just weird, and I do not like it!

While only in for one night we loved this hotel. Very spacious family executive suite for two adults and two teenagers. Comfortable, bright and clean. Check in very easy. Loved the location within the train station. Very quiet. We stayed on a Sunday night and we're very disappointed to see the neighborhood empty. Not many restaurants open either.

An unfortunately hot night…
Stayed for one night with my wife and daughter, and had a problem with the room. It was really warm on arrival, there were no windows that could be opened, the thermostat was as low as it could go… I checked the ventilation, and there was none! So I went to the front desk and explained this, and minutes later, a maintenance man arrived. All good (I thought) however he opened the ventilation only a bit and the three of us could hardly sleep. I understand that energy is expensive in Europe, but…

Dear Paul , thank you for staying with us. Since we are located on a trainstation no windows are by law allowed to open, it is for everybodys safety. The ventialtion in centrally controlled and its depending on the outside temprature, so unfortantely when the weather is changing quickly with cold night warm days it takes some time for the system to change.But hopefully it will be better next time. Take care and we hope to see you again.

Everyone who visits Göteborg had to stay at this hotel. If you don’t, you just haven’t experienced this incredible city. This was my first visit to this part of Sweden and I feel so lucky i happened to pick this hotel. The hotel is literally embedded into the Central Station and is very nice. The staff are outstanding especially Natasha who welcomed me to her hotel. The breakfast was outstanding. Every aspect of my stay was relaxing and comfortable. I highly recommend the First Hotel in Göteborg

The rooms are very spacious by European standards. Don't worry about train noise, rooms are high above the station and well insulated. As is usual in European train stations, there are shops close at hand for any of your day to day needs. The area around Central Station is somewhat sterile, but, since the tram and bus lines all converge there, it is a cinch to get any place in the Gothenburg region. There is an "official" taxi stand on the other side of the station and an "unofficial" one right in front of the hotel. Desk staff is friendly and very helpful. The restaurant is good. All in all, an excellent place to stay.

The location was in the middle of the city which made accessing stores and transportation perfect. The staff at the hotel were very nice and helpful. The only downside was that the rooms were not soundproofed as advertised making it very easy to hear the guests around you.

Location is right by the door of the train station (don't go in the station itself), and the airport coach drops you off right at the station too. Shout out to Sidney and Elvira on the front desk who couldn't do enough to help us with recommendations for local shopping, the best bars for a Saturday night, and an early check-in. (Hint: front desk staff never get tips... In the end we bought little cards from the station and slipped cash inside them for those 2 amazing receptionists.) Also all the breakfast team were efficient but also fun and chatty. Hotel is spacious, and toasty inside even when -8C outside.

Nice hotel in a great location
I really enjoyed my stay in Gothenburg! The First Hotel G is in a fantastic location and the staff there are all so nice! Special shout-out to Sidney who helped me multiple times during my stay! The breakfast is extensive and runs late on a weekend (til 11am) which is always nice! My only complaint is that I felt my room (5.42) was a little bit run down - there was no plug in the sink which always made me nervous that I might lose my wedding ring down the drain! Also there was a few chips in it which made it look dirty. The room got very warm at night and I was not able to adjust the temperature there at all as the aircon panel on the wall seemed to be a dud. Also, we had used the glasses in the room on the Friday night and housekeeping did not replace them with clean ones at all during the 4 nights we stayed there. Other than these, the hotel was ideal and very convenient!
