Hotel Maria - Sweden Hotels  

Sadly, I was very disappointed with my stay at Hotel Maria. I had found the hotel on the internet and the reviews were very good. I also liked the look of the rooms as they were shown in the photos. In my opinion the photos and the reviews did not live up to my expectations. Location is great, but once you actually enter the hotel you are met by a really rather worn looking carpet and tacky decor. There was no one at reception when we arrived and eventually I had to go in search for a member of staff who as it turned out did not know how to manage the reception desk and then, in turn, had to call a colleague who handed us the keys, although he told us that he was not familiar with the system and we could therefore not pay at that point. It was suggested we pay prior to checking out in the morning, When we stated that we were leaving relatively early (6 am) we were told that there would be no one there to process the payment so perhaps we could come back later and pay that evening. A little basic an unprofessional in my mind. I was under the impression, based on what it stated on my order confirmation, that the room we had booked would have either 1920's art Deco theme or 1950's style decor. To my great surprise when I got to the room it was the 1970's party room with a disco ball in the ceiling. I think it is great and very nice with individually decorated rooms, however, I do more than anything prioritise cleanliness and this room was not clean and not in good decorative order. It felt as if all the furniture and soft furnishings had been purchased from an Oxfam store or equivalent and simply thrown together without actually being cleaned in advance. The bed side table had sticky ringmarks on the top and the soap dispenser in the bathroom was empty. There were two brown/orange bathrobes on the back of the bathroom door that looked as if they had been there for some time and not washed since the last occupant had vacated.

Very clean, super location

Room was a little dark and small bathroom

Friendly and helpful staff, beautiful and charming rooms.

The breakfast was very good and fresh. The hotel staff very friendly, helpful and always smiling.

The elevator stopped and I was stuck for long time inside. With my claustrophobia this was a nightmare. But again the staff was very helpful and got me about after 10-15 minutes. The room was smaller than I had expected.

The hotel was convenient to the Helsingborg transportation center and just across from the scenic Mariakyrkan. The room was comfortably and elegantly appointed in all respects. We enjoyed our dinner at the tapas restaurant the night we checked in, and the breakfast buffet offered exceptional variety and authenticity in its Swedish menu items.

This is a minor quibble -- the point of entry to the hotel could be more clearly marked. Fortunately, the helpful staff quickly noticed our uncertainty and provided appropriate directions.

Excellent location in centre of the Old Town. But streets are quiet at night. Near to many restaurants, shops and interesting old buildings. Very near to ferry terminal. Intersting room designs. Very helpful staff. Hotel also operates as a tapas restaurant in the evening, which is very popular.

Room not perfectly clean, a lot of dust remained. Shower screen in room 2 does not seal against the floor so the whole bathroom was flooded each time the shower was used.

Cosy athmosphere but room are kind of small

rooms a bit small

Väldigt mysigt hotell centralt i Helsingborg, bara några meter till shopping, jättenära stationen. Jättefint och spännande rum. Underbar säng och mjuka kuddar, jättefin frukost matsal och god frukost. Väldigt fin omgivning och ingång till hotellet. Kändes hemtrevligt. Jag är supernöjd och kommer bo här igen.

Läget mitt I cenntrum, bra samarbete med ett närliggande p - hus, jättetrevlig och serviceinriktad personal, helt ok frukost - jättemysigt litet hotell.

Något litet rum, vi bodde I det 50 - talsinspererade rummet. Väldigt gnällig toalettdörr - lite olja kanske. Mycket varutransporter på gården tidigt på morgonen (05.30) vilket störde sömnen.

Bra läge och bra med resturang I samma hus

Tapasrestaurangen!

Fruktansvärt varmt i rummen.

Rara, trevliga och hjälpsamma tjejer i receptionen.

Det absolut trevligaste hotell jag bott på någonsin, häftig inredning, trevlig frukost, helt fantastiskt!
