Hotelli hyvällä paikalla ja hyvät kulkuyhteydet keskustaan. Huone pienehkö, mutta erittäin toimiva, lisäksi hyvät näköalat yhdeksännestä kerroksesta. Erittäin hyvä aamiainen.

Mukava ja siisti hotelli
Hotelli oli perushyvä hotelli, siisti ja hyvä aamiainen. Ilmastoinnin teho olisi voinut olla parempi, toinen seurueesta hieman kärsi siitä, että huone ei helteellä ollut riittävän viileä, koska isoon ikkunaan paistoi aurinko suuren osan päivää

Väldigt bra. Även väldigt god frukost men otroligt trångt på frukosten och det fanns inga lediga bord först utan vi fick vänta ett tag för att få ett bord.

Great Scandic tradition
Scandic is a great hotel chain and this one was no different. Friendly, multi lingual check-in. Free coffee. Even gave us a room a couple of hours early.

Senaste boendet, (av många)
Vi har bott på Vulcan ett flertal gånger sedan 2014 och har alltid varit supernöjda men nu så falnar det. Frukosten har alltid varit bra även nu. Det börjar märkas nu att Hotellet behöver fräschas upp. Har börjat att bli slitet med tröga lås, när man vill låsa för natten, färgsläpp i målningen, slitna lampsladdar, TV som inte fungerade. men området och läget är perfekt så med lite upputsning så kommer det att bli bra igen.

Mukavaa nukkumista sekavassa hotellissa
Perussiisti hotelli, joskin hyvin sekava. Aamupalalle löytäminen vaati vinkkejä respasta, mutta sitten kunnreitin oppi, niin löysihän sinne. Aamiainen sopivan monipuolinen ja maittava.
Huone ei liian tilava, eikä esimerkiksi työpöytää ollut. Kahden ihmisen moottoripyöräreissun tavarat mahtuivat huoneeseen hät’hätää. Vuode mukava, joskin sieltä löytyi vielä edellisen majoittujan hiuksia.

Helt ok. Litt gammelt bad, tett sluk og lukten av tett sluk trekker ned, og veldig uhygenisk med dusjforhengløsningen. God frokost veier opp litt.
