Best Western Plus Aby Hotel
Quiet race-course views outside the centre
About this hotel
Best Western Plus Aby Hotel trades a central Gothenburg address for a quieter, race-course-adjacent setting, with warmly furnished rooms and a hot tub giving the evenings a relaxed character away from the city's busier streets. Included breakfast covers an early start toward Liseberg, and the spa suits an evening reset once the kids are settled. Pet-friendly status means a travelling dog is welcome too. The connection into central Gothenburg and onward to Liseberg takes longer from here than from the boulevard or station-area hotels, so this suits a family for whom a quieter, more suburban setting outweighs shaving minutes off the daily commute to Oceana. The trade-off is a genuinely quieter stay, one worth making deliberately rather than defaulting to a central address out of habit.

Our take
This hotel suits a family wanting a quieter, more suburban setting with a spa and included breakfast, and who does not mind a longer connection to Liseberg. Families prioritising the shortest commute to the park should choose a central hotel instead. It rewards a family who has already prioritised this over a marginally closer or cheaper option.
- ✓Budget extra transit time into central Gothenburg and onward to Liseberg from this quieter, more suburban setting.
- ✓Use the hot tub and spa in the evening, since the setting suits winding down more than a night out in the centre.
- ✓Book pet-friendly rooms directly if travelling with a dog, since the quieter setting suits a longer, more relaxed stay.

Why guests love itWe wanted somewhere quieter than the central hotels and this delivered, with the hot tub and spa giving us a relaxed evening away from the city bustle after a long Oceana day. The ride into central Gothenburg and onward to Liseberg took a bit longer, but the calmer setting made up for it. That was the detail we would tell another family about before anything else.
