More information on Best Western Tidbloms Hotel

This is a good if offbeat choice, recommended if you're seeking an off-the-record weekend. Two famous stars once hid out here -- incognito, of course -- knowing the paparazzi was unlikely to find them. It's better for motorists because of its location, although it can also be reached by public transportation. Set 3km (1 3/4 miles) east of Gothenburg's center, in a residential neighborhood filled with other Victorian buildings, this hotel was built in 1897 as a dormitory for Scottish craftsmen imported to work at the nearby lumber mill. Despite its functional purpose, its builders graced it with a conical tower, fancy brickwork, and other architectural adornments that remain in place today. After stints as a warehouse, a delicatessen, and a low-rent hotel, the building was upgraded in 1987 into a cozy, charming, and well-accessorized hotel. Guest rooms have good, firm beds; ample bathrooms with tub/showers; and wooden floors -- and have more flair and character than you'll find at many larger, more anonymous hotels in Gothenburg's center. Facilities: Restaurant; bar; sauna; 24-hr. room service; laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice.
