- The hotel is housed in a grand 19th-century structure where many original details have been maintained, offering an atmosphere of classic Swedish elegance that newer developments often lack.
Things to Consider
- The available private parking is limited and may reach capacity during busy periods; however, several secure public parking garages are located within a short walking distance of the entrance.
- Because the hotel occupies a historic building, room layouts are not standardized, meaning some spaces may feel more constrained than others depending on their specific position within the original floor plan.

Reviews from Google“First contact with the reception was a call because we had arrived a bit earlier than the checkin time and we asked them about the parking. The staff checked the place and tomd us where to park, so our problem was solved. Pro tips you can fast parking 15min in front of the hotel but the real parking is in the back of the hotel. The room is really big (deluxe room) with a cooking area, a big bathroom, a great shower and a bath. What can I ask for better experience? Having a real queen bed with one matrass and no 2 matrasses bind together. My wish came true. Its a really good hotel, the facilities are really great. Check the pics for the buffet and the sport area!”
“A great hotel located at the perfect spot in city centre Malmö. Close to Lilla Torg and other popular spots for food, drinks and entertainment. The rooms are classy, spacious and well designed. I can totally recommend booking this hotel for work, couples or singles for spending time on Malmö.”
“I stayed at this hotel for 3 nights. I would rate it more or less 3.5 Star, it gives me the doubt it is not entirely 4 but it is more than a 3. Staff is very kind and helpfull. I stayed at a room which you had to take 2 elevators for, after a few minutes I know the long way but no big deal. I had the deluxe double room, the size of the room was very good you could move around with plenty of space. The room overal was good, nice bathroom, king size bed, good tv, fridge... Although the room was a little bit smelly as it was an older room it did smell. I tried to open windows for some fresh air but this was not possible so had to stay in the smelly room. The mattress of the bed seemed also pretty old I could feel the springs from the mattress. The room was also pretty dark at one side as there were no good lights in the room. I had a room with breakfast, but this dissapointed me a but. Every day exactly the same and not that much of a choice. The location was great, perfect in the center of Malmo with a lot of restaurants and shops nearby. I would recommend the Bisschop arms restaurant at the hotel Would I recommend the hotel? If you like an older hotel with all needed basics and maybe bit more yes! If you prefer a fancy new modern hotel with a royal breakfast no.”
“Walking distance to the train station. The sauna. Indoor parking (limited amount of spaces, book in advance) very helpful and kind staff.”
“Unfortunately not M.Bonvoy hotel around but this hotel offers a nice price/quality compromise. Rooms might be a bit old and not that large but the breakfast is one of the best I’ve had, definitely worth staying even just 1 night to be able to try it !”
