Charmigt och fräscht hotell med omhändertagande personal
Pros:

Charmigt. Gillar att de bevarat den gamla stilen, även vissa inredningsdetaljer verkar vara original. Bra läge. Nära till det mesta. Välstädat. Bra frukost med bl a hembakat bröd. Mycket trevlig personal! Vi kände oss väl omhändertagna.

Cons:

Inget, men vill man t ex träna eller ha spa så ska man välja ett annat hotell.

Tryggt och bra, inte mycket ljud från gatan!! Vackert!
Pros:

Underbar placering vid Strandvägen och är man förtjust i Jugend så är det en pärla! Fin frukost hjälpsam personal.

Cons:

Jag hade behövt en hiss men förstår att det är svårt när det är en vackert gammalt hotell!

Esplanade is a beautiful hotel, excellent location and wonderful breakfast buffet.
Pros:

The style and furnishings of the hotel are lovely - it felt like a boutique with lots of history. We enjoyed the excellent breakfast!

Cons:

If you are a light sleeper maybe don’t get a room overlooking the water. There was overnight road noise and construction somewhere nearby that woke us up often.
