Hotel Allen

Gothenburg


Located parallel to the green oasis that is Trädgårdsföreningen, this small modern hotel has some inviting perks – like free waffles for guests until 9pm, complimentary hot drinks and cake in the lobby, and even a shoe polisher (a machine that is!). Rooms are spacious with parquet floors, chic black-and-white fabrics and bathrooms with tubs, as well as showers.
