Liseberg Grand Curiosa Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"If you need a wonderful room, great dining options, amazing breakfast and good service... the Grand Curiosa ticks all the boxes. The BONUS is the interesting spaces, fun features (including 2 story corkscrew slide) and interesting decor. We don't have kids, but loved watching young people wonder at the place. Even my wife and I (in our 60's) did the slide. The Grand Curiosa makes you feel like a kid again. On top of that, we got free entry (after 6pm) to the park to see what was thrilling everyone to scream and laugh. Back in our room, all was quiet and comfortable. A fun place - a MUST see destination."

Radisson Blu Riverside Hotel, Gothenburg

Radisson Blu Riverside Hotel, Gothenburg

10/10 Excellent
"For the second time in two years, my family and I had the pleasure of staying at this hotel for a week in August 2026. The Radisson was an ideal location for all of us. Although it’s separated from central Gothenburg by the Göta Ă€lv River, a short, free ferry ride from a nearby ferry dock will take you to Stenpiren where you can walk, take trams, or buses to any point in the city itself. There are also bus and tram stops close to the Radisson that provide alternative access the main part of the city. The staff at the hotel were professional and welcoming (we particularly appreciated the help Alma provided at the front desk). The rooms are clean and very quiet, the beds are very comfortable, the showers provide hot water with excellent pressure, and the curtains completely blocked out the light of the summer sun. Our experience last year taught us that the hotel breakfast offerings are amazing, even for members of my family who are vegetarian and gluten-free. Saunas, hot tub, workout room, a rooftop lounge that offers wonderful views of the city, and little touches throughout the hotel that still appeal to science geeks (the lights in the main restaurant form a Newton’s Cradle). This year, we visited the hotel bar where Joshua prepared amazing drinks, including an amazing drink that he invented to satisfy my wife’s tastes. Stay here. You won’t be disappointed."
