Great view of the sea, clean and quiet. The twin beds were a problem with constant separation in the midddle, and the tub could barely fit two feet side by side. Not very hygge.

Amazing location in Aarhus and we booked for the sea view + spa, but the stay was unfortunately underwhelming. One day before arrival we were told the spa was closed due to repairs and we could cancel. With family + pregnancy and no good last-minute alternatives, we still checked in (stressful start). At check-in we were then told the restaurant was closed (except breakfast) and our family room was in the annex. Even after sharing our disappointment, we were told nothing could be done. The room was nice, but the view was to a parking area, and being in the annex meant extra hassle (and cold winter walks) to reach breakfast/spa. After contacting Hotels.com, we were offered a room in the main building — but with an additional fee. That change made a big difference and the experience improved a lot. Unfortunately, the same day the sauna went out of use for the rest of our stay. We also saw guests walking around the pool area in running shoes, and reception didn’t see it as a red flag until we insisted. This hotel has real potential, but right now it’s a “maybe stay” rather than a must.

Hotellet ligger bra, fin utsikt (om man har havsutsikt) med både tillgång till bad i hav och i pool. Fin frukostbuffe, alltid tillgång till vatten, te och kaffe. Helt fantastisk personal!! Det enda som kunde varit bättre var ha A/C på rummet och tillgång till kylskåp på rummet.

Läget var fantastiskt, vi bokade ett rum ut mot havet. Lyx att kunna njuta av havsbad! På rummet var det insnålat på det mesta, inga glas, det som fanns var två pappmuggar på tre personer, ingen vattenkokare eller te/kaffe, ingen minikyl, vilket hade varit bra då restaurangen var stängd, AC saknades, vilket man kan tycka borde vara standard på varje hotell, i badrummet var det badkar som var väldigt skålformat, vilket gjorde det svårt att hålla balansen när man stod, balkongen var liten men ganska ok, dock var den smutsig med fågelbajs och spindelnät. Hela hotellet kändes trött och föråldrat med möbler som andades 90-tal och smutsiga heltäckningsmattor. Helt ok frukost och det lilla vi hade att göra med personalen var inget att klaga på. Det som det det vinner på var det fantastiska läget vid havet!

Helt tosset at man skal betale for at holde på parkeringspladsen ved Hotellet. Der burde være en selvfølge ,at når man har booked overnatning, har man ret til at parkere bilen. Der bør kunne reg. bilnummer og ret til parkere, som kan klares andre steder. Hørte par der havde betalt kr 115 for et døgn og så fik parkeringsbøde 995 kr. Ligeledes helt tosset at et hotel der ligger i Danmark har information kun på engelsk, man burde da overholde dansk som førstesprog og så fint med engelsk som andet sprog.

Hele hotellet trænger til at blive fornyet. Det er begyndt at virke "slidt " personalet ALTID smilende og venlig og imødekommende. Rigtig godt udvalg til morgenmad.

Fantastisk udsigt over Aarhus Bugt og på alle måder et rigtig godt hotel. Eneste minus er at området virker noget utrygt. Ved ankomsten 22.30 var der flere unge, der kørte ræs på vejen langs hotellet og flere af dem kørte også med høj fart i den modsatte vejbane. Det var meget ubehageligt.
