Great location to shopping and museum. You can essily walk the area. The room was great. Quiet and comfortable. The breakfast bar had lots of great food options
Stay ruined for the second time with load banging noises coming from airvent or pipes in the room. Cannot believe that hotel has not fixed this since my last stay, which was months ago. Staff confirmed to me that multiple guests have complained about those noises as well. Impossible to get any sleep. To bad that this brings down the overall rating when room, restaurant and are otherwise very good.
Spacious and modern room and bathroom. Very comfortable bed. No wardrobe, just 4 hangers on a small rail. The window opens, so we can get some fresh air. No fridge.
The location is excellent. We walked to most places we visited except to the new Aarhus Ø district and to the Infinite Bridge.
Breakfast was good, but the only fresh fruit was watermelon. Very friendly and helpful reception staff. Overall, we wete happy with the hotel and would stay there again.
This hotel is in an excellent location and the beds are comfortable. The breakfast buffets were excellent. The fitness centre is small but well-equipped. The onsite parking was convenient.
The rooms, however, failed to meet our expectations. The safe didn’t work, the hairdryer was too weak to dry hair, the conditioner container in the shower was empty, there was no mini-fridge and there was a permanent dark ring in the bathroom sink.
The shelving units were ridiculous. Pointy-edged grey boxes that stuck out in all the wrong places. All three of us managed to bang our heads on the shelving units during our three-night stay.
The room was also dark.
We like Scandinavian hotels but this one needs a renovation - or at the very least, basic maintenance.

Friendly, helpful staff, very comfortable room beds etc. ( and even a kettle!) A really excellent breakfast buffet with lots of choice and even a " make your own waffles" area . Very good location and a lovely modern, spacious interior.
Would definitely come back and recommend it to my friends.
This Hotel is located in the center of Aarhus so very close to everything you would like to visit. The interior of this hotel is based on Danish design so you immediatly feel like at home.
