Always a great experience coming here, from a warm welcome in the reception to free hot chocolate if you wish. Excellent breakfast and what looks like a really nice Spa area. Free parking, which is always worth considering when staying in a big city. Not close to central Gothenburg, butthat is by no means a negative, just a fact.

Wonderful reception especially with pet.

Turned up at Arken spar hotel with my wife and our little dog and received a very nice welcome. The lady at the reception was very friendly and made it clean that even the dog was most welcome and had even a little bag of did treats. It is not all hotels that allow the dog in the restaurant and all open common areas. Of course we have the dog on a leash and well under control at all times but having the possibility to have her with us all the time makes everybody much calmer and happier. Definitely recommend this hotel!

Comfortable stay, good food & very helpful staff

The hotel is large and nicely appointed. The rooms are finished to a high standard, with comfortable beds and a very nice shower. Despite the size of the hotel, we had no issues with noise or access to the restaurant. However, the key differentiator was the attitude of the staff. Our baggage was lost on our outbound journey and, for good measure, our return flights were cancelled without our consent or being informed. The hotel staff were incredibly helpful in handling our bags (which arrived at the hotel after we had checked out) and confirmed that we could extend our stay if return flights were not forthcoming. They demonstrated a clear drive to providing customer service and their efforts were greatly appreciated by myself and my colleague. We will definitely use this hotel again - but will travel via a different airline.

Excellent spa

The hotel spa is amazing, one of the best I've experienced. There must have been 10 saunas and lots more facilities. The rooms are very basic and mine was small but ok.
