Clarion Hotel® Gillet

Stayed a night in a Deluxe room and was not overly impressed. The room itself was cramped (for a Deluxe room) and dark but otherwise okay, I guess. It was closer to what I’d expect some sort of standard room to look like. The bathroom was, unfortunately, not as clean as one would have hoped. The room only had one large and two small towels (for two guests), so we had to request more. The breakfast was a catastrophy from a covid perspective, bordering on terrifying. One final annoyance was the limited number of in-room outlets - just three. (This is not the hotel’s fault, but when we tried to order room service no less than three times, no one from the Kitchen & Table restaurant picked up the phone. How is that even possible?) On the plus side, the location is good if you want to be downtown and the service from the front desk was extremely friendly. Also, the water pressure in the rainfall shower was outstanding. So, was it an okay stay? Yes. Will I return or recommend it to someone else? Nope. Gillet’s value proposition is just too poor, at least for the ”Deluxe” rooms.

Ideally situated and very central. Parking located underneath and chargeable. Reception area is inviting and cosy. Room was small but well equipped. Breakfast is a buffet and plenty to chose from. Ideal for a short stay.

I have stayed in this hotel a couple of times whilst traveling for business. The location is perfect - very central with plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The staff are always friendly and happy to help. The rooms are clean and very comfortable. Will definitely stay here again.

Lots of vegan options at breakfast. The room was clean and spacious enough. Very comfortable bed. Very quiet. The check-in and check-out processes were super smooth and friendly. Excellent location right in the center of Uppsala.

I am always happy with my stays at Clarion hotels. The rooms are clean, beds are super comfortable, bathrooms have nice shower gels and good water pressure, ac and heating always works well, wifi is free and fast, and breakfast is excellent. This clarion hotel was no exception and I will definitely consider to stay again when in Uppsala. There is off course some room for improvement: The gym is really tiny and felt kind of claustrofobis, and if you wish to use the sauna you have to pay to enter the spa section (this is the main reason why I might consider booking my next stay at the Radisson instead). Also, part of the breakfast buffé was lid with strange strong orange lamp which made food look weird. And the energy bar in the room's minibar had expired four months ago (which I discovered after taking a few bites and wondering why it tasted like paper..). Then again, the value of this hotel is excellent – with prices generally lower than other hotels in the same standard. Hence: recommended!
