Carlstens Fortress Tours

Fun houseboat resort in a fairly unattractive industrial area of Gōteborg

Good location, old building, single very basic room but excellent friendly staff make it a good option.

My stay at the Dorsia Hotel was nothing short of exceptional, thanks to its incredible staff. Daniella greeted me with such warmth, and Sofi made sure I was comfortable while waiting for my room. But it was Sussi who truly made the experience unforgettable—her dedication and passion for hospitality set a new standard. In 25+ years of traveling, I’ve never experienced service this outstanding. The room was cozy yet beautifully designed, with elegant details that added a luxurious feel. The lobby was breathtaking, and the restaurant offered both style and delicious cuisine. The terrace was a dream—the perfect spot for a peaceful drink in a chic atmosphere. The breakfast was amazing—while there were no omelets, everything else more than made up for it. The fresh bread was extraordinary, and the house-made pastries were deliciously addictive. My only minor issue was the TV, which didn’t work despite Sussi and Mali’s persistent efforts. Even after being told the system was fixed, there were still no channels—but honestly, with so much else to enjoy, it hardly mattered. A near-perfect stay—I can’t recommend Dorsia enough!
