I have been in the "Rex Hotel" for a long weekend in April 2008.
The area
The hotel is situated in a quiet street 10-15 minutes walking from the center. In this area there are a lot of supermarkets (including one Lidl), restaurants (Italians, Chineses) and a lot of take aways. There is also a 7eleven that closes around 11.00 pm.
The hotel
When you enter at the hotel you can see the reception, a sofa and a internet desk (free to use). Our room was in the first floor and it was nice. Not huge but with space enough to have a table, a chest of drawers and a sofa. The bathroom is quite impressive with black stone in a very design style. In the room there are available two bottles of sparkling water and a detailed dossier of the attractions of the area with a lot of useful information. You can access free of charge to internet if you have a laptop. The hotel can provide you a map of the city and there are also other leaflets at the reception with information of the city.
The breakfast
Is an buffet where you can choose whatever you want of coffee, tea, juices, bread, eggs, ham, cheese, etc. The breakfast room is not very big and perhaps you need to share your table with other guests.
General impression
I liked the "Rex Hotel". We had a really good time there. I cannot say anything wrong about but if it was more central it would be superb (but of course it would make it more expensive). I have to mention that I booked it in internet and I found an offer (third night free) that make it very affordable (around 180 pounds for three nights).If you want to have a look at their rooms this is their website: www.rexhotel.se
