Avalon Hotel

We had a very good stay and would book here again. The Swedish continental-style breakfast was something we really enjoyed, and the staff were genuinely friendly and went out of their way to help. The sustainability concept is excellent. The rooms have a Scandinavian design, though they felt a little dated. The location is fantastic.

The terrace was really nice, and breakfast was excellent. Staff were very friendly, and the location worked well for us. The rooms are starting to feel a bit dated, as others have mentioned, and a weekday breakfast start at 8 feels a little late. There’s no air conditioning, but I’d asked for a fan before checking in and they were able to provide one. I was grateful for that, since I imagine an open window would have been quite noisy.

We loved the location, with most things within walking distance. Breakfast was included, and the buffet was delicious. We also loved being able to sit outside to eat. The rooms were comfortable, well equipped and had cool decor. There’s no A/C, so we left the window open at night. Our room faced a street with popular bars, which made it noisy. That was our only complaint. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived.

We spent a lovely afternoon outside, sipping cocktails before lunch. Even though it was fairly busy, it was easy to chat and just relax on such a perfect day. An afternoon of cocktails in a square is the best tour in Europe.
