Frommer's Review

The twin towers of this well-run government-rated four-star hotel, which rise 18 mirror-plated stories above Sweden's largest convention center, were the tallest buildings on the west coast until they were surpassed in the late 1990s by a newer building in Malmö. A total of 410 rooms lie in its Gothia West Tower; the others, in its Gothia East Tower. At press time, plans were under discussion for the construction of a third tower, to help service the surging need of hotel space associated with the thousands of visitors flocking to the country's largest convention center. Its brisk, friendly format places it among Scandinavia's best business-oriented hotels. Rooms are comfortable, contemporary, and tasteful. Touches of wood, particularly the hardwood floors, take the edge off any sense of cookie-cutter standardization. Bathrooms are spacious, with sleek, tiled tub/showers. We gravitate to the rooms on the top three floors of the towers, which are plusher than those at lower levels, and feature enhanced amenities and services. A covered passageway runs from each of the towers directly to the convention center.

Facilities:
2 restaurants; 3 bars; fitness center; sauna; limited room service; laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
