About this place Elite Hotel Academia

Elite Hotel Academia is a modern chain hotel at Suttungs gränd 6, on the east side of Uppsala's central station and a couple of minutes' walk from UKK, the concert and congress hall on Vaksalagatan. It has standard rooms and suites, an Asian-fusion restaurant and a pub. It is a mainstream hotel, not a gay venue. The location is the practical draw: trains to Stockholm and Arlanda leave from next door, and UKK is where Uppsala Pride sets up its Pride House each September. Google rates it 4.4 from about 1,600 reviews.

We stayed at Elite Hotel Academia in Uppsala and had a very pleasant experience overall. We arrived in the middle of the night, so we really appreciated the 24-hour check-in service. The staff at reception were very friendly and welcoming, making our late arrival stress-free. The hotel itself is stylish, with a nice atmosphere throughout. We stayed in a standard room, which was a little small for two people, but it was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The bed was comfortable, and housekeeping did a great job cleaning the room every day. The hotel also has a gym, which, while not large, is bright, well-kept, and equipped with everything needed for a great workout. Breakfast was included in our package and exceeded our expectations, especially regarding gluten-free options. There was a dedicated gluten-free section with bread, crackers, cereals, and various condiments, as well as a separate gluten-free toaster. As someone who follows a gluten-free diet, I found this particularly thoughtful and appreciated. The overall breakfast selection was big, with a variety of juices, fresh fruit and vegetables, yogurts, cereals, and traditional breakfast items such as eggs and bacon. There was truly something for everyone.

We stayed overnight during a road trip through Sweden. The rooms are modern and well-equipped, with a bathroom, kettle, minibar, and safe. The hotel is located right in the city center, so all the sights are within walking distance. There's also a restaurant and a fitness area. The breakfast buffet is very extensive and fantastic. Highly recommended! 👍
