We had an amazing stay at Clarion Hotel Draken in Gothenburg! The hotel is modern, stylish, and in a fantastic location with easy access to the city’s main attractions. The rooms were incredibly spacious, comfortable, and beautifully designed. One of the highlights was the spectacular rooftop restaurant and bar, offering breathtaking views over Gothenburg and a wonderful atmosphere—definitely a must-visit during your stay. We couldn’t have a chance to eat breakfast due to the jet lag but the breakfast buffet was outstanding, with an impressive selection of fresh, high-quality options to suit every taste. Every meal we had was delicious, and the dining experience exceeded our expectations. The staff were welcoming, professional, and always happy to help, making our stay even more enjoyable. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Gothenburg and would happily stay here again!

This is a very nice hotel, immediately upon walking into the lobby there was someone ready to help. Checking in was a breeze and the room very comfortable and well appointed. The floor that I was on was very quiet all the time. They served breakfast buffet style and the choices were endless, the best selection and quality I have ever seen. It's very easy to over eat here. I partook in refreshments in the rooftop bar where spectacular views of the city were there for enjoyment and again very helpful staff in attendance. Any staff member that I spoke to used very good English so communication was very easy. If ever I'm in Gothenburg again I would definitely stay here.

I had an amazing stay at Hotel Draken, but the true highlight was the spa. Having a spa like this inside the hotel is an absolute gem and one of the biggest reasons I'd stay here again. The women working in the spa were exceptional. They made me feel welcomed, cared for, and completely pampered. The spa itself is beautiful. I loved the calming water wall, the sauna, the variety of pools, and the refreshing cold room. I also highly recommend the leg massage if you've been doing a lot of walking around Gothenburg or other Scandinavian cities. It made a huge difference after long days of exploring. The breakfast was another standout. The selection was enormous, with a ridiculous number of options. Whether you wanted something light or a full meal, there was plenty to choose from, and it kept me fueled for a full day of sightseeing. The views from the top of the hotel are also stunning and offer a beautiful perspective of Gothenburg. My only issue was that after arriving late from a long day of walking, the shower in my room wasn't working. Thankfully, the room attendant fixed it while I grabbed something to eat, so it ended up being only a minor inconvenience. Overall, Hotel Draken exceeded my expectations. Between the incredible spa, wonderful staff, fantastic breakfast, and breathtaking views, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
