Guests can look forward to sweet and savoury flavours including a variety of seafood dishes as well as local beers and great live music.

Fabulous hotel - great location, amazing breakfast, staff really warm and welcoming. Trams and bus stops across the road from the hotel, make it really easy to get to from the airport, centre etc. We also used the trams to go to the end of the line and take a ferry to the islands - fantastic and so reasonable.
The restaurant and the bar at the hotel were brilliant and there are stunning views fr every floor.
Would love to return to Gothenburg one day and will certainly stay here :)

High quality hotel with excellent breakfast and helpful staff. The bed was very comfortable and the room was well decorated. The view from our room on 27th floor was amazing. The location is good with plenty of local restaurants and a short tram ride to the city centre.

Bedroom was small with no storage for clothes - only a hanging rail above the mini bar. Cleaning was irregular - some days the room was not cleaned. Shower water did not drain away some days, flooding the bathroom.

This hotel was excellent. It had everything you would want from air conditioning to a big shower, thick towels, good-sized bathroom, big pillows and a refrigerator.

One downside is no close parking.

I stayed in two Clarion hotels on this trip and this one by far was the best one. The bed was extremely comfortable. Room was a great temperature, location was fantastic and the rooftop bar was great! My shower drain did clog but they came up and fixed it right away! Great stay!

I had an amazing stay at Hotel Draken, but the true highlight was the spa. Having a spa like this inside the hotel is an absolute gem and one of the biggest reasons I'd stay here again.
The women working in the spa were exceptional. They made me feel welcomed, cared for, and completely pampered. The spa itself is beautiful. I loved the calming water wall, the sauna, the variety of pools, and the refreshing cold room. I also highly recommend the leg massage if you've been doing a lot of walking around Gothenburg or other Scandinavian cities. It made a huge difference after long days of exploring.
The breakfast was another standout. The selection was enormous, with a ridiculous number of options. Whether you wanted something light or a full meal, there was plenty to choose from, and it kept me fueled for a full day of sightseeing.
The views from the top of the hotel are also stunning and offer a beautiful perspective of Gothenburg.
My only issue was that after arriving late from a long day of walking, the shower in my room wasn't working. Thankfully, the room attendant fixed it while I grabbed something to eat, so it ended up being only a minor inconvenience.
Overall, Hotel Draken exceeded my expectations. Between the incredible spa, wonderful staff, fantastic breakfast, and breathtaking views, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

We had an amazing stay at Clarion Hotel Draken in Gothenburg! The hotel is modern, stylish, and in a fantastic location with easy access to the city’s main attractions.
The rooms were incredibly spacious, comfortable, and beautifully designed. One of the highlights was the spectacular rooftop restaurant and bar, offering breathtaking views over Gothenburg and a wonderful atmosphere—definitely a must-visit during your stay.
We couldn’t have a chance to eat breakfast due to the jet lag but the breakfast buffet was outstanding, with an impressive selection of fresh, high-quality options to suit every taste. Every meal we had was delicious, and the dining experience exceeded our expectations.
The staff were welcoming, professional, and always happy to help, making our stay even more enjoyable. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Gothenburg and would happily stay here again!

I have never experienced a more sweet and friendly staff like at clarion Draken in Gothenburg. Sweden.
Alexandria was super amazing in helping and guiding us. She deserves a 5 star personal review. I am forgetting the name of this gentlemen with the long breard. He was so friendly and funny. He was super nice too. The breakfast was so elaborate with so much variety including personal omelette option. I would recommend this hotel to everyone.

Excellent stay at this property. Staff were very helpful especially the staff at Heurlins. Both the waiting staff and chef were excellent at helping with options for a meal excluding my food allergies. Great location with the Tram stops outside to travel through the city. WiFi in room was great. Would definitely return to this property.

Couldn't really fault this hotel, great location and walking distance to all areas we wanted to visit.
The staff are exceptional and so helpful and friendly.
Sadly at check in we weren't informed that the roof top restaurant/bar wasn't open on a Sunday and as we were only there 2 nights was a shame as we planned to visit on the Sunday evening. The tea and coffee in our room was very limited and we were only left 2 sachets of coffee and small amount of milk but we survived (lol) Another thing we noticed that the TV did not work (not that we needed to watch as Gothenberg has plenty to see and do) The iron in our room was in poor condition and burnt my blouse. The reception staff kindly are hopefully sorting a refund for the newly purchased blouse with the finance department.
Helene and Nathalie we have to mention as they were so welcoming and helpful.
All said we had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend this hotel. It was so clean. Didn't eat at the hotel so cant comment on the food. We were on the 21st floor and the views were excellent.

This is a very nice hotel, immediately upon walking into the lobby there was someone ready to help. Checking in was a breeze and the room very comfortable and well appointed. The floor that I was on was very quiet all the time.
They served breakfast buffet style and the choices were endless, the best selection and quality I have ever seen. It's very easy to over eat here.
I partook in refreshments in the rooftop bar where spectacular views of the city were there for enjoyment and again very helpful staff in attendance.
Any staff member that I spoke to used very good English so communication was very easy.
If ever I'm in Gothenburg again I would definitely stay here.

The hotel is nice and well located . The staff are very friendly. There was quite alot of construction noise in the area but I understand this is out of the hotels control. The bars downstairs were not always open. We were told we could take a drink from the downstairs bar to our room as it was closing . However when I tried to take a drink from the rooftop bar to our room I was told it was not allowed which was a bit confusing.

I would definitely stay here again if I was visiting Gothenburg

Comfy room with good views across Gothenburg, powerful shower. Centrally located for easy access to sights, restaurants and bars. Rooftop bar was also quite vibey for a Saturday night. We did book a spa session as well which was actually pretty busy and so, not super relaxing (and you paid extra for this). The breakfast is good but was also super busy - they try and help this by staggering the times but it seemed like too many people. Only other minor inconvenience was that the Chromecast didn't work.

This is a beautiful opulent hotel but it is huge and more suited to conferences than leisure breaks. Lack of storage space in hotel room was a big minus - there is one small cupboard containing fridge, coffee machine, kettle, and ironing board, with a single rail above for hanging clothes as long as they're not too long to dangle into the coffee machine. Useless for more than one night - we lived out of suitcases. It wasn't clear from Expedia that there is no use of the spa included in the price and that it is an extra 295SEK per person for a 2 hour slot which has to be booked. The spa is relaxing and has good ambience but the facilities are extremely limited (hot sauna good, cold sauna hopeless, experience showers limited to a bucket of not very cold water, pools have no seating or bubbles - just large pools of warm shallow water). Staff were professional and friendly, but housekeeping extremely erratic with poor communication meaning that small problems became big and annoying.

This is a brilliant hotel in a convenient location in Gothenberg. We didn’t realise we had breakfast included, as were so impressed with the breakfast spread. As a vegan, I often have a lot of anxiety and associate hotel breakfasts with limited options that I can make do with. The vegan options at the breakfast buffet were incredible and was the first hotel I’ve stayed at where I felt like I had as much choice as everyone else. I really want the commend the hotel for this. The hotel was clean, all of the staff were welcoming and pleasant, and it’s so convenient being able to make use of the hotel gym. Incredible stay and have already recommended this hotel to friends and family!!

The area around the hotel has a lot of building work going on at the moment but it will be lovely once it is all finished. one thing of note, while the breakfast area and the food selection was really excellent it was VERY busy every day. It is such a big hotel that shouldn’t be a surprise but worth planning for.

Great view and comfortable room and bed. The shower had a problem with clogging and we didn’t get help the same day, so after a reminder the day after it was fixed fairly swift, we also got vouchers for a cocktail upstairs in the rooftop bar so all is forgiven. The spa is not worth a visit, very little variation and extremely loud environment especially when a group of guys occupy the pool in the centre of the room screaming to each other constantly. We also found a hefty portion of snus tobacco pasted onto the seat of the sauna. The hotel personnel should have asked them to behave or kicked them out, but unfortunately nothing of the sort happened. Breakfast was very crowded but you could always find seating. Better information about the booked time slots would probably have helped.

Room Access Failure – The key didn’t work, and my daughter and I had to sit on the floor waiting for help.
2.Lack of Communication – No phone in the room, making it impossible to contact staff at night.
3.Unbearable Noise – Loud disturbances continued until 4 a.m., ruining any chance of rest.
4.Misleading Support – Hotels.com told me I could cancel with a refund, but the hotel refused.
5.Inadequate Compensation – One hour of spa access for one person only, while I was traveling with my daughter.
These failures completely ruined the purpose of our stay — a peaceful and relaxing day — and I received far less than what I paid for.
