Reviews for First Hotel G

Review 1:I was disappointed with the breakfast as a vegetarian I would have liked some pastries. It was probably me but I could not get the TV to work so maybe they could leave instructions with the other information in the room. Because it was snowing when I visited the floor of my room was wet from my welllington boots so a small rug at the door would have been a good idea.

Review 2:This Hotel is perferfectly located for Central Gothenburg and the rooms are very quiet.

Review 3:It took an hour from when I called to say water was running into my room from the roof for me to be settled into another room. However the main problem with this hotel is the restaurant. The menu is limited. The opening hours are limited. The food is terrible and there aren't many good options in the station which means going for quite a bit of a walk into the town centre or to another hotel for a decent meal.

Review 4:The location is great if you are coming or going by train. My room was on the top floor and very quite except when the roof started leaking and I had to change rooms at midnight.

Review 5:It's a souless sort of place. The food is uninteresting. The lobby is uninteresting. And such. Good location but otherwise I fun, that's for sure.

Review 6:The location is great. The staff was congenial.

Review 7:The staff was not up to standard and helpful. The hotel does not accept payment in cash and even though the booking was made on line and confirmed by email the staff could not find it in their system and could not wait until the morning to accept payment on the card it had been paid with.

Review 8:The location was good.

Review 9:Car park is a bit difficult to find at first. Very busy at breakfast time.

Review 10:We were upgraded to a suite which was good. All staff we interacted with were very good, especially the reception lady.

Review 11:Your Bacon at breakfast taste like fried potato. Actually they are fried in oil and not in a pan. They taste like... And you need to do something about the coffe. Hmmm In sweden there is a nice culture of just coffe, and wy not go for a good machine. Best regards.

Review 12:I was there for three days, each morning the breakfast could only be described as chaotic. On the first morning I asked a server for some bread during the buffet breakfast, I was advised that there was no more, yet the service still had 30 minutes to run. There is a computer and printer in reception for use by guests, I tried to use the printer on the evening of our first day, the printer required toner and when I advised the receptionist of this issue she said she knew and toner was on order. The printer was in the same condition on day three. No other printing facility was available.

Review 13:Location was excellent, room was very nice.

Review 14:breakfast is not very exciting, plus too many guests waiting to get food and seats. Long corridors make you feel you are in a hostel, rather than a 4-star hotel.

Review 15:Staffs are really helpful. the hotel is just next to the airport coach. Very close to the old town and shopping centre. Sauna is a plus after a long walking day

Review 16:male wait staff in the cafe were lazy & uninterested in what they were doing.

Review 17:location was great, over the railway station but didnt hear a noise! Amenities were good. Nice soft bed. Breakfast great but really busy - needed more tables.

Review 18:Location is great, the girls from the counter are super friendly and my room was very cozy. I enjoyed my stay and will definitely recommend this to anyone

Review 19:A bit dark in the dining room and the was a dead fish in the tank which took over 24 hours to remove after we pointed it out.

Review 20:Nice layout with rooms in a separate block. We had a top floor room and it was very quiet.

Review 21:We though teh lobby toilets were not teh best and rooms a little small but then it is in teh city centre and still good value.

Review 22:Recommended. This hotel is not luxurious but it is not chargong luxurious prices and is great value for money. Staff and location are excelent everything about it works.

Review 23:Everything was fantastic

Review 24:Very clean, fresh and nice hotel with excellent location. Room was spacious and not terribly expensive. Staff was very nice and helpful. Breakfast was of high standard and the bar very pleasant and calm. Location is above the train station. Watch out for all the gypsies begging for money if taking the train. Very annoying but not fault of the hotel.

Review 25:This hotel is right in the train and bus station itself. Extremely convenient especially if you are leaving early for the airport like we did. No undue noises from all the trains or distractions downstairs.

Review 26:Bed was not comfortable, pillows were "clumpy". Reception didn't know if there was any hairdresser near by. I got no information in the hotel, if the Goteborg tourist bus stops near hotel. One could see from the room window to the other side of corridor directly to an other room. Not nice, when I came from shower and saw that somebody was looking right in to my room.

Review 27:I liked the breakfast and the clean room.

Review 28:Crowdy breakfast: eventually impossible to get a coffee Bathroom was very dirty Very poor wifi in the rooms Too expensive for what it has to offer

Review 31:The location, the lovely and comfortable rooms, really nice breakfast and very nice and helpful staff.

Review 32:The breakfast/ dining room was quite dark.

Review 33:A very quiet, central hotel. Clean and friendly. Perfect for early morning train or exploring Gothenburg.

Review 34:None

Review 35:The hotel has an excellent location on top of the main railway station close to down town, which in goteborg is not at all the shabby area it may be in other cities. Staff helpfulness and attitude

Review 36:The windows of the room cannot be opened and there is no view to the outside. The breakfast was not worth the price. Bad coffee, bread of low quality and no variety of cold meat. Overall, the hotel is overpriced.

Review 37:Location next to the train station.

Review 38:Staff very arrogant especially the blonde Australian women on the counter! They won't help you so don't even bother asking for directions!

Review 39:The only good thing about this hotel is it's near the train station! In fact it's built on top of it with all the noise!

Review 40:The check-in time is quite late at 15:00 with the luggage room without real supervision.

Review 41:The location is unbeatable - situated on location with the central railway station of Gothenburg. Albeit the central location, the hotel is quite quiet and provides good nights sleep.

Review 42:We were 3 people & I don't know why we had to ask for toiletries every day - we were there 3 days.

Review 43:The staff was great, location & breakfast was excellent. Also, very close to central station & airport bus.

Review 44:I noticed that some of THE info was mot avilable in english. This i also experienced in copenhagen. As a tourist not being sxandinavian i didn't deel very welcome! Also facilities were nor open!

Review 45:location

Review 46:Unfortunately the electricity went off for a short period & would thought an acknowledgement of that would have been appreciated

Review 47:Room was spacious & bright.

Review 48:No muesli and dirty tables. Difficult door entry with no simple instructions for tricky key access. Room kettle that was faulty

Review 49:Friendly reception, comfy seating area and excellent bathroom. Secure elevator.

Review 50:We made a twice reservation for our mistake.We stayed with our one reservation and they got cancelletion fee from the other reservation.And stuff said lie about this they said "we did not get money Booking got it.

Review 51:deposit taking when check-in. crowded breakfast environment. there is another bed in the room even though I booked a double room for only two persons.

Review 52:good location. strong Wi-Fi. good facilitates in the room.

Review 53:The room faced other rooms. We prefer windows facing street, garden or similar. Not other rooms. There is no wardrobe, no bureau.

Review 54:The location. The breakfast. It was clean

Review 55:Wellness center good although Sauna hours were not convenient. Should be accessible all through the day.

Review 56:The location was great and really convenient for travel and access to the city. The staff were very friendly, helpful and accommodating. Easy luggage storage facility which made it easy to coordinate our travels in between.

Review 57:Not really anything.

Review 58:The hotel was great. Location was a plus and we found it amazing that you couldn't even tell that the hotel was located in the train station. We did not hear any noise from the station at all in our room.

Review 59:The cleaning staf did not sad hello, looked to the floor. Comfort nothing special at all. The breakfadt were very stressy and nothing good to find ad the have in other countries.

Review 60:The hotel sits above Central Station so it's so easy to get around all of Gothenburg. The staff is very helpful, anything we needed, they helped us. The breakfast that comes with the room fee was the best I've experienced, they provided a full buffet of many meats, breads (including waffels), fruits, juices, milk, warm milk for coffee...it was exremely satisfying. Last thing, the bed was split down the middle by a small, inch thick line which is brilliant. If I moved around, I did not disturb my friend. We slept great!

Review 61:Fitness area was a little small and there was no parking on site.

Review 62:This hotel in in an excellent location directly over the central station. There is the main shopping area directly opposite and you can walk easily to anywhere else within 5-10mins.

Review 63:Did not like the fact that the windows faced on to the interior courtyard and had to keep curtains closed most of the time.

Review 64:The location directly above the station was very convenient as we were travelling by train. The room was very comfortable.

Review 65:Overpriced in my opinion. I could hear the trains despite my sound-proofed room being at the farthest from the tracks.

Review 66:its within the central station and the breakfast spread was sufficient. Room was comfortably large for two people at 24sqm.

Review 67:Location right in central train station is efficient for meetings in central gothenburg but immediate surroundings are not great

Review 68:Good size of room, gym and sauna facilities

Review 69:The price is too high but it should be because of the marathon period. We stay at superior room but I feel it is like the normal standard room. I don't feel this room worth for the money we have been charged.

Review 70:Location, staff

Review 71:The property is showing its age: cracked mugs, stained carpets, water-marked desks. There was a pile of potato chips in the corner of the room when we arrived, and it was still there when we left. All in all, we could have done better for our money, and you can too.

Review 72:Quiet. Comfortable bed. Funky design. Definitely handy to train and bus stations.

Review 73:Superb location... Flygbussarna bus last stop from the airport is just infront of the hotel (first floor) and approx. 100m away. Bus (Nils Ericson Terminal) and train (Central Station) are just on the ground floor. Across the hotel is Nordstan shopping mall. The room was big, clean and modern with many facilities (coffee and tea making, iron, hair dryer, minibar, umbrella). The breakfast was also superb, generous and constantly being refilled. Highly recommended.

Review 74:バスターミナルから歩いてすぐのロケーションは最高。ショッピングセンターも目の前にあるので便利。ホテルの朝食もなかなかだし、ネットもすぐつながって、次回もここに泊まりたい。 very Close from the bus station,near the shopping center,next time also We will come back this hotel

Review 75:The double bed was two separate beds, not one big bed

Review 76:Great Hotel in the heart of Gøteborg. Good value for money, and they had parking at Nordstan at ok price. Good breakfast, friendly staff and big, clean room.

Review 77:Wifi bad signal Window glass were so dirty and I could not take any photo of view outside.

Review 78:Clean and good size of room Staff was friendly, efficient and very helpful.

Review 79:The lady said I was late for breakfast. How can one possibly be late for brekfast? It's not a business meeting or something. Breakfast is from 8am to 11am, and I came at 8.30am, I guess they expected me early.

Review 80:I was upgraded because they didn't have places left in 8 bedroom room. The room was comfortable and stylish. Overall the hostel is very clean, and comfortable. Everything has a charm to it. The rooms are beautifully decorated. I also enjoyed the cafe downstairs. Highly recommend!

Review 81:sometimes can hear the footsteps but not much influence.

Review 82:The stuff is very friendly. Its place just near the main station,there have 7-11 and bus station next to it. The breakfast is good,but not so much choose.

Review 83:No such thing

Review 84:This is the third time for me in Gotenburg and second in this hotel. Nice stay, peaceful surroundings, yet on the very centre of the city. Good breakfast with hot dishes.

Review 85:The windows were inside another building and could not be opened. Could not get the temperature low enough to sleep.

Review 86:Clean, location, nice breakfast(but there was a queue to the warm food)

Review 87:...but breakfast area was too crowded in "prime time". The cue line was several meters. They should reorganize the breakfast "pickup-tables".

Review 88:Location superb, nice and clean rooms and facilities. Breakfast was good...

Review 89:Asking more than $350 a room a night everything needs to be better. Service not customer oriented. Massive que for breakfast that is not worth waiting for. And then you get a room where you can not open a window - and the view. The guest activities in the room across.

Review 90:hotel may be wheelchair accessible but is not really disabled equipped no grab rails in bedroom or bathroom making it difficult to pull yourself back up after a fall and difficujt to get yourself out of the bed each morning

Review 91:The place look cold and colorless

Review 92:The place is centrally located. But though the big number of people circulating here and there . Once you are in your room you don't hear anything.

Review 93:Too Close to lift. We could hear some noise caused by lift during the night. Heater was not working. The room did feel cold. But warm in bathroom because of floor heat system in bathroom.

Review 94:Location Breakfast BathRoom Bed Fitness

Review 95:Wooden floor - unfortunately somebody above me was wearing high heels, which was very annoying.

Review 96:Amazing hotel, nice breakfast, very comfortable bed and professional staff:-)

Review 97:The construction of the showers makes water pour all over the floor while showering. The breakfast was good but a bit plain.

Review 98:Nice quiet rooms with comfortable beds. Great location right on top of the Central Station.

Review 99:Everything is ok

Review 100:Nice staff at the reception desk Nice concept with Central station, hotel is close to the city center Clean, comfortable and quiet room Breakfast for 10 +

Review 101:The view from the room could be better.

Review 102:Very clean hotel with comfortable bed located above the central station. The hotel seem to be almost new and the staff at the front desk was pleasant and efficient. Highly recommended for business and pleasure in Gothenburg.

Review 103:A quiet place, comfortable, nice. Still, in a central location. The city centre is in a walking distance, also perfect for travellers arriving by train. Direct bus link from the central station to the Gothenburg International Airport.

Review 104:Design, cleanness, privacy, sound proof rooms, location (basically inside the train station, yet does not feel like it), excellent wi-fi with no hassles of logging-in/out.

Review 105:It is very good but it's still in the train station.

Review 106:The hotel is situated inside the train station but it is very well separate. The good side is that you are surrounded by lots of shops, restaurants and public transport. The rooms are nice, but without terraces. The breakfast was big enough and the staff friendly. We liked the hotel!

Review 107:The only thing I didnt liked was fish menu in the resturant , or maybe it was only ;)

Review 108:Location was perfect, just above nils Ericsson bus station and central station Rates this time were quite affordable Hotel still looks very new, rooms were very clean , minibar , iron and safe box present in room

Review 109:Hotel is in a great location for visiting Gothenburg. It is located over the main train station. Noise from trains is not an issue in the hotel. Our room was very clean. Beds were very comfortable and a well stocked mini bar was available.

Review 110:Large toe nails found on floor - needless to say; not ours. Breakfast was badly laid out, cramped and minimal staff cleaning off tables.

Review 111:Location was super for trains and tourist information was in the Nordstan shopping centre 5minutes walk away. Trams and buses were plentiful and frequent and locals were helpful in getting from place to place. Universeum was our favourite outing.

Review 112:This hotel is in the central station. You can hear the trains and you have to walk over the station area to get from rooms to reception and breakfast area. There are ALOT of nasty questionable people hanging right outside the entrance, like at most train stations in the world. Rooms had no windows to the outside, and could not be opened. You could not even see what weather was like because the "window" was to inside. No air.... Not good.

Review 113:Only if you arrive late via train to the central station and you are only staying 1 night, the hotel could be ok to stay at. Otherwise book somewhere else.

Review 114:Poorly signed entry area Bar fridge in room did not chill properly

Review 115:Location, quick checkin & checkout Nice clean sheets and towels Comfortable bed Well equipped room

Review 116:Reception staff seemed distant. No drawers or shelves in room. The promised sofa was a third bed, which was made up when we arrived. Unlike the other hotels used this holiday, there was no complimentary coffee on tap.

Review 117:Room was clean and bright. Near rail station excellent.

Review 118:But the breakfast could be better for that price we did pay.

Review 119:I did like the central position and the rooms where simple and fine. The doublebed was good, but not the one for our child!

Review 120:The rooms in this hotel have no windows that can open, and with no air conditioning it makes the air very dense. There was a kind of ventilation system though, and the staff in the reception advised us to leave the bathroom door open in a certain position for better circulation of the air... After the first night we bought an electric fan at the shopping center nearby. Also, don't hope for a nice city view from the room; most windows just point out to another indoor area in the building.

Review 121:Clean and modern rooms, comfortable beds and good location

Review 122:Found the staff quite cold... was better with the day crew.

Review 123:Got a very good deal, big room for small $$$. Last minutes are maybe the best ;-) Bed good, space good, bathroom good. Room was quite because inside. Very practically and well situated close to the center and the railway station. There are so many rooms, if there isn't any big event in Gothenburg, maybe wait for the last minutes deal.

Review 124:The staff went beyond the call of duty with regards to assisting me posting something. Very much appreciated.

Review 125:The beds and the pillows were too bad!

Review 126:Very soft bed, limited tv channels

Review 127:Excellent breakfast, parking discount at Nordstan parking

Review 128:The service in the bar The food

Review 129:Location

Review 130:The single beds that join together to make it double bed.

Review 131:The location is superb!

Review 132:Great stay, would definitely stay there again. Staff, food, rooms and location were ideal!

Review 133:To busy at breakfast
