We really loved the hotel (8yo and mama). The breakfast was awesome, there was unlimited coffee throughout the day, and the location is perfect (really close to a bunch of restaurants, stores, and public transport). Bonus was that checkout was at noon, much later than most hotels.

Nice clean room with comfy beds. Great location close to everything and all the tram stops. Good grocery store nearby as well! Breakfast was delicious with lots of options and strong coffee. Really liked the outside garden sitting where you could bring your coffee and cookies and chill out in the morning or evening air.

We had a lovely stay. The hotel was quiet and perfectly located, near the town centre and a lovely park near by and easy to walk and easy for public transport and uber . It was clean, nice room service and breakfast, and with the nice weather we ate in the outside area. We would stay again. Thank you.

Hotel Poseidon is a beautiful historic building just steps away from the beautiful Baptist church typical of the splendid architecture of central Gothenburg. Our room was comfortable, the breakfast was outstanding, and the coffee in the lobby was especially nice.

The hotel is in a great location for the Haga area & there is a tram stop nearby if you want to get a ferry out to the Archipelago. We stayed in a superior double room & had plenty of space for the two of us. Excellent sized bed & shower with good water pressure. A bit of extra furniture would have been helpful, a Kallax(!) in the main room & a shelf or cabinet would have been perfect to properly unpack, rather than lots of empty space. The room didn't have air con, but we were okay when we travelled in May. There was nose from the street outside as it borders on a party area, but with the windows shut & curtains drawn it really blocked the sound out. Breakfast had a good choice & the staff were super helpful if you needed them. Would recommend & would stay again.

Lite skum doft i korridoren, men fint, fräscht och rymligt rum. Ventilationen var inte helt toppen, det blev instängt och varmt på natten, men fönstret gick att öppna för att få in lite fräsch luft. Trevlig frukost och mysigt att kunna sitta utomhus på innergården. Bra läge och trevlig personal.
