    Everything was ok.

    I liked that the hotel is in the reconstructed school building that is a valuable cultural heritage.

    Really nothing to complain

    During my short-trip to Sweden, this was the best hotel. The staff at the reception was very friendly, the service during dinner time and at the breakfast was also very good. The food was also the best that we had in all hotels, everything at the breakfast was great and the bread was fantastic. The room was really nice, with both the sofa and the bed being very comfortable, it's just overall a beautiful building with a really nice ambiente. All in all just a very good hotel and the next time I stay in Umeå, I will definitely book there again.

    Little or no available parking and despite your confirmation that it was free we had to pay each day with no certainty that we could park. Also the room was only cleaned once in 4 days. The coffee was not replenished. I had to demand that it was cleaned and the coffee replenished and the requested couple of extra pillows were never provided. Why in a 4 star hotel was the restaurant and bar not open on Sunday night?

    The location was very good. The room was very comfortable and more than adequate for our stay.

    1. Dog hair on carpet in room on Day 1, it appeared that the room had not been cleaned from the previous occupants. I understand dogs are allowed to stay in this hotel, but maybe dedicate the lower ground floor to these owners, and not put regular guests here. Dog hair was rectified the next day. 2. Bathroom flooded every time the shower was used. For a "green" hotel we used 8 towels a day, to mop up the water, so as not to slip over in bathroom. Reception was notified to clean drain in shower out or maybe a new seal on the bottom of the shower door would do the trick. 3. Requested safe door be opened in our room, so as to use it during our 5 day stay. This was still locked and closed (from the previous occupants code) on Day 5. 4. Breakfast tables were not wiped down, only dirty dishes removed. 5. Parking in the carpark at the front of the hotel, if you are not in carpark by 3.00pm, there are no spare spots. Nearby parking station is cheaper and undercover. If you do get a car spot at the hotel, don't move your car after you have paid for 24hours as there is no guarantee there will be a spot when you return. This did not happen to us.

    Location of hotel, close to centre of town, shops and restaurants. Bus station nearby. River close by too.

    We got upgraded to a supposedly better room, but it was a downgrade. Small small window that couldn’t be opened. The temperature and air quality was super poor because of that, so the first night we almost had no sleep. The breakfast was subpar compared to other equally priced hotels. We also had a room right next to an elevator, so every time someone used it, we would wake up. After complaining to the receptionists a few times they stopped taking our calls. Supposing it was busy, we went down to check only to find the receptionist just standing there.

    The spa area was nice, although it needed to be turned on 30 minutes before it could be used. Adequate location.

    The Hotel Mimer was fabulous! Beautifully located, wonderfully stylish and incredibly comfortable, this is a fabulous hotel. The staff were friendly, helpful and efficient, and everything was done with minimum fuss and hassle. The architecture of the hotel itself is very impressive, and the conversion has been sympathetic to the fabric of the original building. The breakfast was one of the best I've had at a hotel!

    initial room given was dirty with offensive waste in toiletry bin and hair on towels, no shampoo/conditioner in shower. no tea/coffee facilities in room which was surprising for the price as even basic hotels common provide this - when enquiring at reception lady was quite abrupt, moved us to another but smaller room (at least was clean) and then gave mugs and kettle but no actually tea/coffee to use.

    grand entrance and very good breakfast

    No coffee in the room - nor in the reception. No temperature control in the room - it was quite cold. The cleaner did not replace the dirty glass. Also the neighbor slammed the door at 6:04, 6:21 and 6:23. (all doors very loud).

    The comfortable bed and the breakfast, that was good but not overwhelming.

    Breakfast, very ordinary - eg bred and cheese and ham all comes from a package. Would appreciate fresh baked bred and locally produced eg ham. The room was dusty. Our safe deposite didn't work and despite several reminders to the staff they never managed to fix it and we were there for three nights. Even if we were compensated for one night we would have appreicated that some had taken action.

    Nice decorated rooms and good location

    Overall cleanliness could be much more Improved , the public areas was a little dusty there seems to be missing an eye for detail for eg the lifts had dusty around the cracks, my room when I checked in was missing a light bulb, each morning the room was made was put together in a different way (seems there’s no particular standard). Having worked in hotels before I know about security being important I asked the receptionist for a new key but she never asked for any private information to confirm my identity (I could’ve been anyone asking for a new key). Also, notice during breakfast on 2 different morning staff not from the restaurant department helped themselves to breakfast at the same time as guests (that’s a big no) at least in the hotels I’ve worked in the past. Overall I think the hotel has a lot of potential just needs fine tuning when it comes to standards & procedures.

    Cars roaming around the hotel all night to 0400 , honking and playing loud music. Even though I asked for a "quiet room" the noise made it impossible to fall a sleep. The breakfast was much better 2 years ago. Now the hot parts were cold and only ONE choice of soft bread. That is bad value for money when paying premium price for a hotel stay

    The location is really good. Friendly staff.

    For breakfast I can say that All kind of fresh fruit were available and the coffee was really delicious. It was really silent and peaceful; the staff were really friendly and helped for everything . The hotel is close to restaurants and center. You may walk or ride a bike to the river , it is really close . I definitely recommend...
