God beliggenhed - god morgenmad - god helhedsoplev

Imødekommende personale. Lækkert morgenmad. Trods hotellets mange år på bagen, synes jeg at dets stand er ok. Værelset var rummeligt og perfekt ift funktionalitet - men knap så hyggeligt indrettet. Beliggenheden er perfekt

Skønt ophold på Scandic

Meget lille badeværelse. Lille håndvask. Ellers virkelig lækkert. Pænt værelse. Fantastisk morgenbuffet
Lisbeth, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Dejligt centralt i Århus. Vi fik dog et værelse med et meget meget lille badeværelse (sådan et nørrebrobadeværelse, hvor man skal bakke ind og hvor alt er vådt når man har været i bad(vær. 242)). Skøn morgenmad, hvor de blødkogte æg faktisk er blødkogte. Venligt og hjælpsomt personale. Vi kommer igen og håber på et størrebadeværelse:-)

Schönes Hotel, gute Lage.

Schönes Hotel, aktuell wird noch renoviert - was aber den Aufenthalt nicht behindert. Es war trotzdem ruhig und angenehm. Gutes umfangreiches Frühstücksbuffet. Sehr lecker. Ich würde wieder dort übernachten. Direkt am Bahnhof / Bus
Tobias, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Dejligt ophold

Jeg boede på et dejligt single værelse i 2 nætter. Der var rent og rigeligt med te/kaffe, sæber etc. Sengen var meget komfortabel og bruseren med 2 forskellige brusehoveder havde rigeligt med varmt vand. Morgenmaden var meget varieret med alt fra vafler til blødkogte æg. Det var virkelig en lækker morgenmads buffet. Kan varmt anbefale hotellet med det søde personale..

Das Hotel wird gerade renoviert, entsprechend kahl ist es hier und da. Die Lage ist super, in unmittelbarer Nähe zum Bahnhof.

God value for money

Altid god og imødekommende service. Kan kun give mine bedste anbefalinger, hvis man ønsker at bo centralt i Aarhus.
Charlotte, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

En fantastisk belligenhed med kun 1 minuts gang til gågaden/ bylivet og 25 minutter til tivoli friheden. Søde, engagerede, opmærksomme og hjælpsomme oersonale. Et bredt udvalg af morgenmadsprodukter fir alke.

Ombygning/mangel på ventilation

Fint ophold - kunne dog have oplyst at hotellet er under ombygning. Total mangel på ventilation. Placeringen af hotellet godt.
Flemming Juhl, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Fint til prisen

Central beliggenhed, venligt personale, god seng, lækker morgenbuffet. Desværre overnattede jeg der i en varm sommerweekend, så jeg måtte vælge mellem at have vinduet åbent og få meget larm fra gaden eller at lukke vinduet for larmen og så have et alt for varmt værelse. Der var ingen anden mulighed for nedkøling. Det skal siges, at jeg bor på landet og er derfor ikke vant til bylarm. Andre kan måske godt sove fra det.
Karen, 2-night trip

Værelser der ikke lever op til standard på 5 sal

Vi havde desværre ikke en særligt god oplevelse da et af vores værelser var oppe på 5 sal og ikke holdt standarden man vil forvente af et standard værelse. Det var skrå vægge og slet ikke plads, udover det ville der være god stil at oplyse om at i renoverer med så kraftig påvirkning på hotellet så at man kan beslutte på baggrund af den information hvis man stadigvæk ønsker bo der.
