Close to train station. Friendly staff. The hotel with very long history makes it looks quite ancient... The price is a little expensive...

The hotel is more like a hostel and requires a complete makeover - the tap water was brown for the fist minute - the shower was on a 30 second timer Looks impressive from the outside - very tatty on the inside This cost ~£120 B&B, I would have been annoyed paying £50 The breakfast was a cold buffet and not very inviting Stay here at your peril - had I been staing more than one night, I would have checked out and taken my chances on the street

I enjoyed the geographical situation - very close to the rail station Quite correct breakfast. Very nice and helpful personel. Very old fashioned - need refurbishment (torn carpets, tarnished wall- papers, bathroom features, etc...)

The Intenet connection was weak, slow and very unstable, not just for me but for other hotel guest too. Beacause of poor Internet I won't recommend this hotel

Reasonable price for central location in Gothenburg. Felt more like a youth hostel than a hotel. No real onpremise facilities apart from breakfast which was served in a corridor.

Good breakfast included (and an early breakfast provided for early leavers), helpful staff - comfortable lounge with television, (swedish) papers and coffee. Convenient location near bus and railway staiton and close to city centre. Chinese and other resturants nearby. Near the trams so a little noisy when they went round the corner. Rooms on river side would probably have been quieter.

Location I would not say that this hotel is cheep when the fact of shared bathrooms are taken in to consideration. The shower rooms on the second floor had black mold between tiles and discusting diry floor wipers also with black mold on it.

Location in the city centre The hotel is in terrible need of a facelift. Having to share toilets and bathrooms with many other guests cannot be justified given such a high room rate.

No frills, no hassle stay. The staff were very friendly and accommodating helping. The breakfast was lovely a nice big buffet with loads of choice. I actually upgraded to en suite as did not spot the shared bathroom when I booked. I stayed with my wife who is 6.5 months pregnant and my 21 month old daughter. It was cosy and the room was of an ok standard considering the cost of hotels nearby. We only stayed one night though and you may kick yourself for not going for a more expensive room in another hotel if like us you have your hands full.

The location was great. Right near the central station, and in the heart of the city. The staff were friendly and helpful also. Breakfast was ok, decent variety. Despite being in a very central location, there was very little noise. The hotel room was uncomfortably hot at night, making it very difficult to sleep.

We booked because we know the restaurant well, which is excellent, so we expected/assumed the hotel to be in the same vein. It isn'T. The only thing that we liked is that it is next to that wonderful restaurant. When you have dined in the restaurant, with gorgeous, modern Swedish food and an impressive wine list, enjoyed in that opulent setting of the old Grand Hotel style, the hotel is a massive let down. It feels like a budget back packer place. You can see the potential, but does the hotel management? Yes, it needs investment, but I think it would be worthwhile. There really is no excuse for tacky rooms, and sharing even tackier bathrooms. There is certainly no excuse for having to wait in the rain until some one finally opens the front door. The staff are nice and friendly enough, but that doesn't change the feel of a doss house. They apologize it is to safe guard 'good value', but is it? You can stay in lovely hotels in Goteborg, for the same, even less, and have a comfortable, nice room, with its own, modern bathroom and good facilities. I fear that laziness and complacency have crept in. As for that 'famous' breakfast... It is fine, but no better than elsewhere. It is time for Palace Hotel to catch up with the times. Why not check out how they run the restaurant. Ask them to have an honest look at the hotel. And for God's sake bring some soul and heart to the place. That doesn't cost money. A keen spirit can turn this place around. Now it is sad and dead.

The location is excellent, right in the centre of Gothenburg. Only a five minutes' walk from the railway station and less than that from the Brunnsparken square. The staff are really polite and helpful. The restaurant right next door to the hotel is very nice and popular at evenings. The rooms are a bit small and don't have private toilets or showers. There is noise from the Gothenburg trams as the very central Brunnsparken stop is located right next door, but this is easily helped with earplugs. The breakfast buffet is a bit bland, I would liked to have scrambled eggs and bacon, and croissants for afters. It looked like there is a whole wing of the hotel that isn't used for anything other than going to the breakfast buffet. Maybe the hotel has undergone renovations? Curiously, the hotel can't seem to make up its mind about whether it's called the Robinson or the Palace. =)

For a short city break the location was superb, next to local trams, buses, trains and airport bus. Huge shopping centre close with tourist info office. Very clean room and fine breakfast. Helpful staff. Small lounge with all day coffee and buscuits. Dual name - booked as Hotel Robinson but Hotel Palace signed. Booked a room with shared toilet / shower. Not a problem except that floor after showering was slippy thermoplastic. Would have liked bbc World as extra tv station.
