Hotel information

Our unique waterfront location which is just a stone’s throw from downtown Göteborg means that you have a choice of options. Take a lovely stroll along the embankment followed by a meal at Restaurant River Café with the city lights twinkling in the background or, for a change of pace, take a boat ride into town.

Villan is an historic building that was built in 1916 as the Eriksberg’s headquarters of the shipyard management and design office. Göteborg flourished as a shipbuilding town and Sweden became a world-leading shipbuilding nation.

When the shipbuilding era drew to a close in 1980, there was no longer a need for the executive residence. The 800-ton building was transported on barges along the river and back to land, moving it fifty meters from its original location. The bill for new foundations along with moving and repairing “Villan” was substantial—or more precisely SEK20 Million. But preserving a cultural-historical quarter requires effort.

Göteborg’s shipyard quarters with its fine old traditions are at present undergoing a slow and painstaking transformation. Cranes and overhead gantries are preserved while the residents of Göteborg make their homes in the new buildings lining the embankment. Eriksberg has morphed from a lively shipbuilding arena into a flourishing residential area.

Food & beverage

All rates include breakfast buffet at the neighboring River Café. The restaurant is situated on the pier beside the river Göta Älv adjacent to Hotel Villan. Take breakfast overlooking Göteborg’s harbour.

Together these two form the perfect venue for conferences and dinner experiences beyond the ordinary. You will find generous areas for large groups and intimate rooms for smaller parties. A fabulous location.

Our international cuisine is complemented by an emphasis on the jewels of the oceans and the exclusive surroundings.

Room information

All guest rooms are tastefully and superbly decorated in timeless design in collaboration with the Axelsson o Co project. The furniture, textiles and color schemes have been carefully selected to form a harmonious setting.

All room doors have been fitted with a peep hole for our guests’ safety.

Area information

Today Eriksberg has morphed from a lively shipbuilding arena into a flourishing residential area. Former industrial buildings have become sports halls and many business companies have relocated to the area. Ericsson, Semcon, Caran, Hotell 11, Eriksbergshallen and SVT are a few of the enterprises represented here.

It would probably be hard to find any other example in the world where the outcome has been as successful as it has been here in Göteborg.

Important information

Please note that the hotel reception closes at 21:00.

If you intend to arrive at a later time then please contact the hotel at the number on your confirmation.

Location of hotel Villan by Göta river couldn't be better: It is easy to catch a ferry to the city centre. The view over the dockside is great. Personnel is friendly and very helpful. The building along with its history is attractive. The room was elegantly furnished.

The staff were very welcoming and accommodating - changing my room allocation so that I could check in early. Very good English spoken at the hotel. Room was small but very stylish and comfortable. Bathroom was A1. Umbrellas outside each room is a very nice touch.

There are very few facilities and you have to go outside of the hotel and along the road to the cafe for breakfast, but the food is good and the cafe is bright, clean and airy.

The hotel was very quaint and I loved the location on the water. It is beautifully renovated and very clean. At first I was concerned about the location given its distance from central Gothenburg. However, the ferry and buses make it very easy to get back and forth and the ferry itself is a lovely ride.

The location and the marine feeling. This is a very special place, with an interesting history and very well renovated. The staff was very nice and helpful. Each room is unique. I liked that this is not a hotel chain - you know you're staying at Hotel Villan.

The location so close to the water and the breakfast possibility at the Pier.

With the car it was a bit hard to find the way to the hotel. (only at the first place though)
