The Viking boat was lovely, the room was clean, easy check-in, we were late due to the flight being delayed, had to call the phone, which was on reception to get our key card, which was no issue. Breakfast was lovely and highly recommended. I wish we had, had more time there. I will definitely book again.

We stayed here for two separate nights, enjoyed both stays very unique experience, other than on second night there was a broken flashing light outside, i slept through it but my husband struggled, there is lots of unique features to this ship that you can go round and explore, we even went up on top deck and had a walk around. Beds are comfy, Great location for everything in gothenburg city, near to shops bus station and train stations, what more could you ask for

Sanja

Disliked: Cleanliness
One of the standout features of this hotel is that it is actually a ship, which adds a unique charm and a touch of adventure to the stay. The location is superb, as it is within walking distance from the city center, making it easy to explore all the local attractions. Additionally, being right next to the ferry terminal made it incredibly convenient for us to get around. The breakfast was okay and provided a decent start to the day, though it didn't stand out as particularly exceptional. However, there was one significant downside to our stay. Despite placing a request for room cleaning on our door, our room was not cleaned for the entire three days of our stay. This was quite disappointing and impacted our overall comfort.

Great value in the centre of Gothenburg
Amazing venue. View was stunning and really easy to find. A very useful landmark when slightly inebriated. Good breakfast selection. Could do with a bit of updating in the public areas, eg carpets are torn and frayed. Don't stay over public holidays as telephone check in system is rubbish

A culturally rich, clean and friendly ship
An amazing experience of staying in a ship that is clean, culturally rich, with friendly staff and a fresh breakfast. It was quite impressive that this accommodation is also offering a glimpse in the history of this ship both in the breakfast hall and the floor, where the single rooms are located, where you can admire nautical artefacts and paintings. As for the breakfast, it was tasty and with big variety and the staff was really taking care of the space cleanliness and the food all the time, showing that they care for their guests. I definitely recommend that Göteborgs visitors' stay in this unique ship hotel.It is value for money and an experience you will remember.

I recommend a stay on the sailship. It was spacy inside, alot of places to sit down and relax. The staff was friendly and the breakfast was very good. The bath and toilets had some technical failures. Should be fixed.

Was expecting so much more based on the rating. Like other reviews, the check in process is an issue. There are multiple signs that tell you to do different things and none of them are correct. The bar/restaurant is closed and there is no access to any exterior portion of the ship so that really takes away from the overall experience. Based on that this could have been any average to bad hotel and it doesn’t help that you get none of the good ship experience.

Great Experience
Really unique experience staying on a barque docked on the river in Gothenburg. Self check in is straight forward although it’s worth noting that Hotel.com customers must use the phone at the property to call the remote reception as the reference number needed for check in doesn’t get emailed to you. Room was good, everything worked and was clean. Breakfast was great and the staff were very friendly and professional. There’s a small museum to look around on the lower deck for free. It’s interesting just having a walk around and exploring the vessel. Stayed for one night but would have been more than happy to stay for longer. Cool experience.

Don't spend weekends at this hotel during summer
Room 302, king-size bed suite is on the top deck. What was not mentioned was that barken Viking sometimes arranges a club until an undisclosed time during weekends. At 23.00 we grew tired of the noise and called the Hotell to ask for a new room and the receptionist at dialogue hotel stated first that he knew nothing of the party, then that the party would end at 2.00 am, or 1, or midnight, and finally that he would check for other rooms and call back, which he did not do. I had worse service once, at a 1 star hotel in Paris. Weekdays the hotel is perfect, quiet, central and good value for money, I've spent 40+ nights there. During summer time with good weather I'll never choose this hotel again.

Unusual hotel in great location
Very nice hotel, simple but comfy rooms, friendly staff, breakfast has all you need. Very quiet unless there is an event on board in the evening, which just happened once in the 5 nights I stayed there. Great location, right in the old harbour, just 15 min walk from city center. Sightseeing tours by boat are close-by. There was only one issue during my stay - reception is supposed to be open from 7 am to 9 pm, but in reality, mostly it only seems to be staffed in the afternoons when new guests arrive. Also, my keycard did not work for the main entrance which was an issue when reception was closed. Same was the case for other guests. There was a number that you could call so somebody would open the door for you, not it's not ideal of course. However, I am sure this is just a temporary issue and will be fixed soon. Otherwise it was a very comfortable and charming place, well definitely stay there again when I come to Gothenburg.
