This quaint little hotel is superbly located in the heart of Gothenburg. Several restaurants, cafes, and bars are a few minutes away as is the train station and a major tram stop. The staff is superb… both efficient and friendly. Construction is going on next to the hotel which made for noisy mornings during our stay. Other than that, we enjoyed our time here. The location cannot be beaten.

A pleasant medium size hotel with very helpful staff, a comfortable room and great breakfast. We stayed over a weekend and our room overlooked Kyrkogatan which was noisy (people and commercial vehicles) for our taste.

I had a fantastic stay at Hotel Vanilla. The place was incredibly clean, peaceful, and conveniently located just a short walk from the city's main street. The atmosphere was serene, making it perfect for a relaxing trip. The breakfast was diverse and delicious, offering a great start to each day. Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and will definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit. Highly recommended!

The hotel is conveniently located right in the heart of the city, making it easy to explore nearby sights and attractions. The staff was friendly and welcoming throughout our stay, which we appreciated. However, the cleanliness and service in the room left something to be desired. Housekeeping only made the beds and did not replace our used coffee cups or restock the coffee and milk supplies. As a result, we were only able to make coffee in the room on the first of our three mornings—disappointing, especially as we were traveling with a baby and were up early each day. We also felt somewhat misled regarding the hotel’s accessibility. We were aware that there was no elevator, but we called ahead and were assured we’d get a room on the first floor and that there would only be a “small flight of stairs” to manage with our baby stroller. In reality, we were met with a large, circular staircase that was quite challenging to navigate. This made the stay far from convenient for a family with a small child. All in all, while the location and staff were positives, the lack of attention to room upkeep and the misleading information about accessibility made the stay less comfortable than we had hoped.

Good location friendly staff but not ideal

Good location, clean with an average hotel breakfast. However the twin room we had was small and looked nothing like the pictures. There wasn’t much space to navigate round the bottom of the beds. There was building work going on next door which started at 7 in the morning, so check this before you travel. Asked for a different twin room but they didn’t have another one.

Highly recommended - be aware there is no elevator

Located in the heart of Gothenburg, within easy walking distance from the railway station and the main tourist area. The hotel is nicely decorated and laid out, but be aware that there is no elevator if this is an issue. The room was clean and quite spacious. The supplied breakfast was more than adequate. The lady on the front desk on Friday, when we arrived, was incredibly friendly and helpful with restaurant recommendations etc, but over the weekend she was replaced with people who were rather disinterested in being there. Overall we would highly recomend.
