First Hotel G

Location is superb! It is located above the train station (Gothernburg Central Station). The room is spacious, comfortable, clean and very presentable. There are more than enough socket points and even USB points in the room. There is an electric kettle, a mini fridge (with transparent door!) and all that we need! We stayed in a few other hotels in Sweden for this trip and this hotel more than meets our expectations and worth the money we paid for! The front desk staff (two gentlemen) on the day we checked-in were friendly and pleasant. On the day we checked out, there was a slightly older gentleman who is equally helpful. I was impressed when we turned on the TV and received a personalised welcome! (Please see pic). This hotel gives us the impression that they put customers first!

The room was very big and we received a disabled friendly room as requested. We were also able to check-in earlier at 1. We had view on the Nils Ericsson Bus Terminal, which was kind of cool. The location is perfect for a city trip to Gothenburg and everything easily reachable by walking. As the hotel is integrated into the railwaystation building one has a lot of grocery stores and restaurants right around the corner - This is useful as the hotel restaurant and bar is a bit overpriced. The only thing that was a bit odd is that the room didn’t had a proper big light but only smaller ones, like the ones on the shelfs next to the bed - However, this wasn’t a big issue. And in general, the hotel is architectural wise perfectly integrated into the railway station, while one is fully detached from the crowded part so that the hotel is its own unit.

Location is one of the best in Gothenburg, it being situated at the train station. For me travelling in from Stockholm it was really convenient, and there are lots of shops and cafes etc at the station. Breakfast was very good, with a typical breakfast buffet and lots of seating. Comfort wise it was fine. It is not the newest hotel and does need some renovations and upgrades in the rooms, but overall I felt that the room was comfy enough. The gym is quite a unique experience because it is directly above/ in front of the train tracks so you get a view down onto the trains from the treadmill. It's a smallish gym but had enough weights and machines to have a good workout.

The location is fantastic — right inside Central Station, which made our arrival from Copenhagen and early bus to Norway a breeze! The check-in was smooth, and the receptionist was friendly. The bed was super comfy, and the room was spacious. The bathroom was large with nice amenities. Overall, it’s a great option for convenience!

Am very impressed with the quality of all the staff we dealt with: waiter at the lunch restaurant (took effort to figure out what 'rotselleri' soup is in English!), to Penny at reception who checked us in an hour earlier, and explained exactly how to get to Svenska Massan by tram (because it was her daily route to/from home!) to the late night bartender who served me my nightcap, to the breakfast waitress who was pleasant and patient enough to explain that the ginger-shot glasses were presently being washed and will arrive shortly, despite being clearly swamped by the overwhelming morning breakfast rush. Would like to rate a 6 out of 5 for all the staff members I came across - well done First G!
