The hotel has a wonderful location overlooking the harbor and beautiful seaside views. The rooms, although clean, were a bit worn down and partly smelly due to old curtains. The service was very welcoming and accommodating, making for a pleasant stay. The dining experience offered a wide variety of delicious options, although fresh juice could be a nice addition.

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were very large, bed was quite comfortable, had enough room for a proper sitting place, and boasted a beautiful sea view. However, overlooking the car park was not the most appealing view. The location, right on the waters edge next to the woods, was a highlight.

The service was not as expected; it seemed less commercial. However, I found the staff a bit unresponsive to requests. The early bar closure was also disappointing.

The location is wonderful, right on the coast line at the start of Moesgård forest. It's a bit far from the city center but perfect for nature lovers.

Dining

The breakfast had a wide selection but the scrambled eggs were not recommended. The cured meats were a standout. The included breakfast for a 'seaview room' in August/September was a nice touch.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was superb, right next to the beach, offering a great view of the sea and conveniently close to the city. The service, though friendly, had a misstep with an unwelcoming initial interaction. The rooms, albeit boasting a nice view of the sea, were lacking essential amenities like air conditioning or a fan, and cleanliness was an issue. The dining experience was a mix of good and bad, with some food options falling short of expectations.

I stayed in a separate cottage with only a queen bed at this hotel, which was spacious and clean. It was a bit inconvenient to have to go outside to the main building for breakfast. The staff was helpful, especially when ordering food from the city due to the limited restaurant options nearby. They were very nice and friendly, although the rooms weren't ready until the afternoon. The location was relaxing and great for enjoying nature, but the hotel itself felt a bit outdated. Dining options were decent but not exceptional, with a pretty extensive menu but busy atmosphere at times.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms, while clean and offering a lovely forest view, differed from the online pictures, which was a slight letdown. The service was very rude and unprofessional, lacking luggage assistance and guidance to the rooms. However, the location was fantastic, offering a nice sea view and great opportunities for beach strolls. The dining experience was decent but could have been more varied. Overall, a stay with both ups and downs.

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The period building created a charming atmosphere, but the outdated rooms with a strong smell, possibly mold, were a downside. The service was friendly and helpful overall, although some communication issues were noted. The location in Aarhus town was undeniably the best, offering peace and lovely views. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with good options but also room for improvement. Overall, a stay with highs and lows.
