Arrived. Lobby quiet. 3 staff on reception. On approaching the desk, we were told to go back and get a numbered queung ticket or they wouldnt check us in. And there was no que. Welcoming? No! Outrageous behaviour. Coloured the rest of the stay in an otherwise ok hotel. Having said which not a smile from any staff. And they try to upsell you dressing gowns, slippers, late Checkin etc. Too hard. Too commercial. Too soulless. Pity. Nice building.

Positive points- excellent location, clean, comfortable, competitive pricing, small but well equipped gym. Negative points- breakfast hall like a school canteen, tables crammed together, food poor. Swimming pool (and sauna) only open mornings till 10 am and evenings 5-9.30, receptionist could not explain why (we understand about the sauna). Broken light in room not fixed during our stay and took 2 days to get lamp.

After a bad experience having to check out early at another hotel, we found Hotel Presidentii, which was great. Big hotel but the rooms are quiet and clean. The bathroom has a heated floor which is a nice feature. BreaBreakfast

Everyone were very nice and friendly and I really appreciated how the staff made an effort to speak Swedish with me. :) One strange thing though was how the people in the bar first ignored us and then later told us to go somewhere else as the bar closed at 22(?) instead of informing us that there was a self service bar in the lobby.

Das Hotel ist überall sehr sauber und auch die Sauna und der Pool sind ordentlich. Jedoch ist das Hotel auf der einen Seite recht modern (z.B. Zimmer sind frisch Renoviert) aber auf der anderen etwas altmodisch und der Pool und Sauna Bereich könnte eine Renovierung vertragen. Das Frühstück ist international aufgestellt, jedoch besteht nicht sonderlich viel Auswahl (Eine Käsesorte, eine Sorte Schinken und eine Sorte Salami). Die Kaffeemaschinen haben nur Filterkaffee und Espresso und andere Kaffeesorten können zwar bestellt werden, aber nur gegen Aufpreis. Was mir bei der Buchung nicht bewusst war, ist dass der Roomservice nur alle 3 Tage stattfindet. Das finde ich zu lange und vor allem wenn man das Fitnessstudio und den Pool nutzt, will ich nicht 3 Tage lang das selbe Handtuch benutzen.

This hotel was really great. The location was central and the pool and sauna were great. Hotel is slightly dated but that sort of gave it charm. The hotel doesn't really have a bar open past 9pm so that was a bit of a bummer when looking for a night cap post dinner. Overall, we were very happy and it was a great hotel to end our trip with.

A great location - close to the train station, and many museums, restaurants, etc. within walking distance. The breakfast buffet was varied and substantial. The hotel sauna and pool were very nice. Only quibble re: the use of the sauna. They request going totally nude, but if one wants to have a dip in the pool to cool off, what is wrong with wearing a swim suit inside?

Hotel is lovely and great location. Room was very warm at night and pillows not comfy. No housekeeping service for the 3 nights we were there which was disappointing and we had to ask for fresh towels. Very limited opening times for swimming pool and water was too cold
