Superior location at Kungstorget, superb service and very nice but functional design. Check in staff was very helpful, and the bathrooms are very nice. Get a room on a high floor, as there can be some noice from the street below at night

I only stayed for two nights, but I was sorry to leave. This is a ‘design hotel’, and it has been designed to an inch of its life. The incomprehensible Avalon typography/logo is everywhere, including on the crockery. My room was brilliantly designed. Everything was where it should be, and this included two basins, an iron and ironing board, a... More

Large, comfortable rooms and excellent service at this lovely design hotel close to shopping and restaurants. We stayed during the weekend and did experience some noise during nighttime due to hefty nightlife nearby. We will definitely return to lovely Gothenburg and super Avalon Hotel.

You will not go wrong with this hotel, it is plonked right in the centre of Gothenburg leaving everything within walking distance in the City Centre. Travelled in April therefore the pool was still closed, however, the cafe bar part of the hotel was vibrant and a nice area to sit and people watch! The hotel itself had good facilities... More

One of the coolest design-hotels I have ever stayed in. Some minor maintenance things to look at in the room (a crack in the mirror and a screw missing in the bathroom door lock) but nothing big enough to ruin the great overall feeling. Super sweet and professional receptionists and masterful bartenders, combined with the great location, made this a... More

In the heart of Gothenburg this medium-sized deign hotel is situated. The hotel is equipped with excellent hotel bar & restuarant, Sky pool, friendly personnel and nice rooms Feng Shui-style. We do recommend a visit at Avalon Hotel!

The location of this hotel is great and the staff is wonderful. My problem with this hotel is that everything has been designed to be as non-functional and as impractical as possible. While one can argue about aesthetics (e.g., I found the picture of naked women in the hallways kitschy, but others might find them amusing), the hotel is just... More

What can I possibly say, having been upgraded to the Penthouse Suite, with a private jacuzzi, swimming pool, etc. Just amazing - totally unexpected and a real bonus looking out at the twinkling lights of Gothenburg.

Thanks for your feedback, and that you appreciate our beds, although the overall experience is important for our hotel, it is of course a must that our guests sleep well with us. Waking up refreshed and then take part of our breakfast buffet is a good start, welcome to more days at First Hotel Avalon! More
