    A Mixed Experience. We stayed for two nights in a superior room, which was surprisingly spacious. The room's size was a definite plus, providing ample space to unwind and spread out. However, it did have a somewhat old-fashioned vibe, which might not be to everyone's taste. One notable drawback was the housekeeping service, or rather the lack thereof. Unfortunately, our room was not cleaned during our stay, which was a significant oversight and a letdown for any traveler. On the culinary front, the hotel's restaurant was a shining star. We enjoyed some delicious meals during our stay, and the restaurant staff was friendly and attentive, making dining here a pleasure. On the flip side, the bed in our room was a bit too soft for our liking, and the pillows left something to be desired. Comfortable sleeping arrangements are crucial for any traveler, and in this aspect, there was room for improvement for one of the most expensive hotels in the area.

    This hotels biggest advantage and disadvantage at the same time is it‘s location. If you are searching for a very central hotel, with friendly staff, good breakfast buffet and mostly fine rooms, go for it. If you dislike noisy areas and find it hard to sleep while hearing the nearby bars/clubs most of the night, this place is not for you. Even rooms facing the backyard in the upmost floor are not quiet at all. At least on weekends. Sadly this is of course nit the hotels fault. The surrounding restaurants and bars seem to have a special permit to ignore any noise regulation (according to hotel staff, who is very aware of the problem).

    Sleepless in Malmø We stayed at Elite Hotel Esplanaden for 2 days (11.th -12th. of Mars 2022). Our room was on the third floor overloooking "Lilla Torget". The music from a restaurant in Lilla Torget was very !! loud and got louder and louder and didn't stop untill 02 on the morning. Even with earplugs it was impossible to sleep. Other people also made complaints about the noise. We've been in Malmö many times, but this will be our first and last stay at Elite Hotel Esplanaden .

    The location, service and rooms were excellent. There was a heating problem in our room the personnel tried to help but it was not fixed, they were kind enough to compensate it afterwards. I recommend this hotel for people on business trips even if their business is in Copenhagen.

    I found the stay at the Elite Hotel Esplanade really comfortable and enjoyable, located central near Lila Torg and Stortorget, you are never to far from a supermarket, shopping, a place to eat or public transport. The staff at check in, were very helpful, the group I was with didn't know of a good place to have dinner and the girl at reception gave us a few restaurants to choose from, which turned out to be great. They also answer all your questions and help you as much as they can. Breakfast in the morning is great as well, with a large assortment of breads, cold cuts, cereal and hot food and drink, there something for every one. The rooms were clean, warm, comfortable and quiet, something I needed from the jet lagged I had experienced. Being the first time in Sweden, it was good to have a comfortable hotel to stay in with great service.

  • 5/5 Veronika H. 10 months ago on Google
    A nice place in the middle of Malmö which is a great plus. The room was nice and clean with all equipment you might need (hair dryer, flat iron). The breakfast is great and there is enough space for all guests. Finally, the personnel was very nice and helpful. All in all a very pleasant stay.

    Please get a better coffee machine for the breakfast. More fruits also. Had the room opposite the recycling room, so heard lots of bottles being dumped early in the morning. Smell of kitchen in my room even though I had window closed.. Think it might come the AC.. so I turned it off and room was very warm..

    Super nice. Big room with bathtub. A small welcome gift and a nice restaurant

  • 1/5 Pi T. 10 months ago on Google
    Although every detail of our stay was transferred and then promised by the hotel that our group will get the prepared keys: nothing worked and we had to wait for a long time.

  • 4/5 Nicola S. 1 year ago on Google
    Close to the best restaurants and pub place of Malmö. Best for position, service and price!

  • 4/5 Sorin I. 8 months ago on Google
    Nice stay in Malmö. Big nice rooms, good breakfast, nice staff and great location. The bathroom could be better (bath tube, bath amenties, etc). I would recommend it for a stay in Malmo.

  • 5/5 Roman G. 9 months ago on Google
    The hotel is located 10 minutes from the Malmö Central station by foot. The restaurant Quan is located on the first floor and used as a breakfast place at the hotel. The rooms are spacious and quite.

  • 5/5 Joan J. 7 months ago on Google
    Great Hotel near the Lilla Torg. Surprisingly the room was very quiet considering that it is close to the most noisy area of Malmo. The room was spacious, modern and clean. The breakfast was huge, with a lot of options and local ingredients. The staff was very polite and willing to help us. We enjoyed it a lot during our 3 nights there.

  • 5/5 Vincents Husbil & H. 2 years ago on Google
    Absolutely fantastic location with spacious and fresh rooms. Attention to detail good soaps in the bathroom and well-stocked minibar. The restaurant in the breakfast close fabulous have the stopwatch and service market close out with a couple of things that we had forgotten. Nice gym and other amenities as well

  • 4/5 Benjamin Garay w. 2 years ago on Google
    No parking spot. The rest very good. Spacious bedroom with nice view. Very well located. And the best was the breakfast. Very good fiambres and cheeses. Bread not the best but ok. Unlimited amount of juice and kaffe., Benjamín.

    After having been a guest at several of the largest and even some of the “fanciest” hotels in the Swedish capital, I've now also stayed a couple of nights at the historic Hotel Esplanade on Strandvägen in Stockholm's Östermalm district. The gorgeous Art Nouveau property that houses the hotel is located in a horseshoe-shaped courtyard. It was designed by the then leading architectural firm Hagström & Ekman and was completed in 1910. Of Stockholm's approximately 120 hotels, the choice fell on Hotell Esplanade thanks to all the good reviews from previous guests who in the vast majority of reviews expressed themselves positively about the hotel's location, the charming, antique interior and that they had a pleasant experience with the staff. As soon as you step into the elliptically shaped reception at Hotell Esplanade, you are instantly transferred to a bygone era. Many of the original furniture from when the hotel was called Grand Pensionat Dehn (until 1954) is still in place. Back then, you were only allowed to stay there through recommendations and many of the guests lived there for long periods. In the block next to Hotell Esplanade is the legendary interior design store Svenskt Tenn, and their influence can be seen here and there, especially in the hotel's public spaces. Despite the well-kept, antique interior, today's version of Hotel Esplanade has been tastefully modernized to meet contemporary expectations and requirements. We lacked nothing in our room (No. 8) and enjoyed a very comfortable bed, a clean bathroom, a work desk, plenty of storage space and a fast and stable connection to the Internet. The slightly worn parquet creaks faintly under my shoes as I step into the cozy guest lounge on the second floor. A couple of sofas and armchairs make the room a perfect oasis to have coffee or work in after breakfast – or, just to relax in when we'd been out on the town for a while. One afternoon we even enjoyed a glass of wine in the sun with a view of Nybroviken from the salon's wide balcony. Next to the guest lounge is the round, red-clad staircase that leads to and from the reception where the main entrance and several dining rooms are also accessed. In the farthest of the hotel’s dining rooms, a large breakfast buffet was served each morning, with fresh bread, cheeses, sliced salmon, scrambled eggs, croissants and much more. I spoke with several of our fellow guests and we are apparently many who are in awe of Hotell Esplanade. In no small way thanks to the combination of a truly unique guest experience; comfy accommodations in a beautifully vintage environment, friendly and welcoming staff, and a superb location by Nybroviken – which is one of the city's most beautiful places with a nice promenade and proximity to the ferries for excursions.. It's easy to feel at home at Hotell Esplanade, which also makes it easy to enjoy your stay – and long to return. #hotellesplanade #hotelladdict #stockholm #sweden #scandinavia #nybroviken #svenskttenn

    Perfect hotel, quite place in the centre. Big rooms, friendly personal.

  • 5/5 Okan K. 1 year ago on Google
    Great location next to Lilla Torg, 5 mins walk from the central station. The staff is very friendly. Hotel interior was a bit outdated, is due for a renovation. Beds were also not too comfortable. But all in all, highly recommended for Malmo city trips.

  • 4/5 Alison W. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent city centre location and safe parking for the motorbike. The breakfast was OK but we dined out in the city. There seemed to be some issue with the room card key machine and we needed it remaking a couple of times.

  • 2/5 Adeel K. 2 years ago on Google
    Rooms lack basics like a phone or intercom. Other amenities are also missing.

  • 3/5 Lindsey H. 2 years ago on Google
    Bed was reasonably comfortable and clean, but there was some mold in my shower. The worst part though was that I could hear a lot of noise coming from the room above me (maybe they were playing basketball until 2am?) and that made it hard to sleep. Breakfast was great though and I really appreciated that it opened early so I could avoid a crowd.

  • 4/5 Alan P. 4 years ago on Google
    An excellent hotel in central Malmö. Good sized rooms, great breakfast and friendly, efficient staff. An added 'bonus' was a small breakfast provided to take away as we were leaving early for the airport - a first for us. Highly recommended.

  • 4/5 Robert “Baggen” H. 3 years ago on Google
    Pleasant staff. Clean rooms. Breakfast is only okish with the worst coffee in history and the warm food is a joke. Coldcuts are quite alrigjt though. Airconditioning can be a hit or a miss depending on what type of room you get.

  • 5/5 Ian J. 4 years ago on Google
    Clean, modern hotel with very spacious rooms. Verging on the anonymous, you’d be hard pressed to recall any details in a couple of years! Extremely well located for tourist walks and restaurants and is about 6 minutes on foot from the station. Very friendly staff. Curious ‘square donut’ layout over a whole block - the hotel is bigger that it seems.

  • 5/5 Kevin S. 4 years ago on Google
    This is a wonderful hotel placed in the heart of the city. The rooms are nice and clean and the breakfast is wonderful. The reception is really helpful and this is not our last visit here. If you need to park at the hotel you need to book this upfront to ensure you get a place. A piece of warning though. When you have to get into or out of the garage don't drive straight, you have to do this at an angle or the bottom of your car will hit the pavement!

  • 5/5 Manuel N. 4 years ago on Google
    Have stayed there twice now. Great place with very cozy rooms and comfortable beds. Breakfast is really good, fresh and huge variety of things. My preferred choice when travelling to Malmö. Staff is very friendly. Check in is possible 24/7. Really all I need.

  • 5/5 Movin S. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best stays Iv had in a long time... The room (superior) was spacious and comfy with a 180 cm bed. The colours and the lights were very cozy. The ceiling was high, making the room more spacious. Two steel pillars give it a very gothic style. It was very relaxing to come back to the room after a long tour. The hotel is in old town, 5 mins walk from the central station. It is close to Lilla Torget and Gustav Adolfs Torg. Its closest to shopping street and many restaurants. The staff were very friendly and quickly came to our rescue when we has issues with our door. They gave us good recommendations of attractions in the city.

  • 5/5 Kristian �. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice and modern hotel with very spacious rooms and great breakfast buffet. The cocktail bar is also one of the best in the city
