My 34-night stay at the hotel I booked was a mix of spacious, clean, and comfortable rooms with a big bathroom featuring a bathtub, while the shared bathroom had a noticeable smell issue. The location was excellent, just opposite the central station and close to various amenities. The dining experience offered a good selection, but there were some cleanliness concerns in shared spaces.

The hotel is perfectly placed, right in the heart of the city and close to the ferry, with functional and slightly spartan rooms. The service provided by the front-desk staff is brilliant and welcoming. The dining experience offers a variety of fresh and tasty Scandinavian dishes. However, the rooms are small and old-fashioned compared to other hotels in the area, and the noise from the main street can be a bit excessive at times.

I have been staying at this hotel in Helsingborg for 34 nights, and overall, it has been a pleasant experience. The rooms are always very clean, although there is some extractor fan noise from neighboring buildings due to single-glazed windows. The service was not as helpful as expected, but they did pre-book a parking lot for us in their garage. The location is excellent, just 1 minute from the central station, making it very convenient for transportation. The dining options were good with a nice outdoor area to eat, adding to the overall positive stay.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean but had some areas that needed more attention, and the location was convenient for accessing the city center and transportation hubs. The service provided by the front-desk staff was friendly, but one staff member stood out negatively. The dining options were satisfactory but not exceptional, and the facilities offered were decent overall.

My stay at the hotel was pretty good overall. The rooms were tidy and designed to be practical and good looking, although a bit smaller than expected for the rates. The service was a mixed bag with helpful staff but one unwelcoming individual. The location was excellent, right in front of the central station with easy access to the main shopping areas. The dining experience was fine with fresh and tasty options. The facilities were nice as well.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were spotless and clean but quite small for the price paid. The location, however, was excellent being right in front of the central station and close to the old city center. The service was friendly and helpful, despite one slightly negative encounter. The dining options were decent, offering a standard continental-style breakfast. The facilities were satisfactory but nothing extraordinary.

If you're in Helsingborg on business, the rooms are well worth the extra cost. They are functional and a bit spartan, definitely not 5-star glamour. However, you might want to avoid looking behind the shower curtain in the ironing room. Being able to make coffee/tea in the room is a nice touch.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was excellent, right across from the main train station and close to shopping areas, but the street noise from outside was a downside. The rooms were quiet when facing the rear of the hotel, but the extractor-fan noise was a bit of an issue. The service was below expectations, with the staff appearing unwelcoming and unhelpful. Though the dining options were fine with a good selection, the overall experience fell short of expectations.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms, despite being very small, were surprisingly clean and comfortable. The breakfast buffet offered a variety of foods and beverages, but there was a slight smell reminiscent of a Chinese restaurant in the air.
