Hotels near The Well of Pigs, Aarhus C

My wife and I stayed for three nights at the hotel, attending a conference in Aarhus. The hotel is very central located, almost opposite the railway station and with excellent access to the shopping streets. The hotel is a little old fashioned, but very charming in an art deco style. The room we had was quite small with almost no place for storing suitcases, and located on the first floor close to the entrance of the hotel. However, as we were told in advance, the location could be quite noisy, it surprised us positively that it was very quiet, almost no disturbing from the pedestrians or the traffic outside. Breakfast was served downstairs in a wine cellar, it lseems. Breakfast was sumptous and good, typical Danish food and with multiple choices. Staff was attentive and friendly. In the loppy free coffee, fruit and cakes were available free of charge for the guests in a nice, but small place to sit down for small talks after the meetings. We came by car and was offered parking space in a parking garage about five minutes walk from the hotel. OK, but not so practical for travellers with heavy luggage, as it was not so easy to park outside the hotel. The elevator was old fashioned and quite small, no problem for us staying on the first floor, but more challenging for those staying at the upper floors. Except for the small size of our room, the hotel gives us good memories, definitely one to recommend if you are looking for central location and not going after aultramodern. It offered a solid brakfast and a central location. Best for couples, perhaps not so good for families with small children. Henry J Grindheim, Asker, Norway

The hotel is clean en have nice big rooms, also a nice bathroom, the people are friendly and helpfunctie, very easy parking in front of the entrance. Breakfast is also very good, Just a few minutes walking to the City centre.

The traffic is really convenient! In the city center, you don't say that you are adjacent to the main transportation hub, the art museum attractions and the supermarket. The hotel is also clean and tidy! Very good! Breakfast is also quite rich. Also equipped with a gym.

As returning clients of more than a decade we were shocked and appalled when we learned first-hand of the hospitality- or lack of same- of the new owners. The Bühlmann family, or should I say familia with all the not-so-nice Godfatherly connotations of this word, are rude and unpleasant in the extreme, bordering on the downright intimidating. We used to regard Hotel Villa Provence as a home away from home but will now earnestly advise everybody to simply not go there. When we tried to book a room and had agreed on our usual price (DKK 1890) we received a confirmation with the price well above DKK 2000. A subsequent complaint over email resulted in the price going further up - this time DKK 2.220- and when we finally phoned the reception the young and clearly incompetent assistant was rude and insolent in the extreme. I asked to get the manager on the phone and had to endure a thankfully rather brief conversation, in the course of which I was told to stay away and in future would be physically barred from entering any of the hotels owned by la sua familia, The Bühlmanns. During the call I had the distinct impression that Le Padrone might be drunk- or worse. We promptly cancelled our Easter vacation in Aalborg at Pier Five, another hapless establisment in the clutches of La Familia Bühlmann, and vowed to terminate our dealings with Godfather and his ilk. Not without compunctions, though. Hotel Villa Provence used to provide genuine hospitality and service sans pareille- and we have spent vacations both at the Castello Di Velona in Tuscany and Spaletti Trivelli in Rome. However, all good things have an end and nothing lasts forever: Sic transit Gloria Mundi! Dear fellow connoisseur of fine hospitality and travelling: Dont even think of going near the place unless you want a real-life Basil Fawltyesque experience- only without the comedy but most surely with a genuinely intimidating peppering of something very, very unpleasant.

The hotel is in an excellent location, right next to the station, and the transportation is very convenient. There are buses not far away. Aarhus is very small and it is very convenient to go to attractions from the hotel. If you make a good living, you need to tell the front desk if you want to clean every day. If you don't tell, the cleaning won't be done.

This Hotel is a typical low budget hotel with small rooms, but everything you need is there. Location is very good but of course you will hear some noise during the night - especially in weekends. The room was clean and the reception staff was very welcoming and service minded. Breakfast is also OK value for your money. Only minus is that you cannot reserve a parking in advance and when we arrived the parking was full but we found rather expensive parking on the street outside.

Best way to describe this hotel is it is functional, not fancy. Everything you need for a short stay is available and they do advertise the rooms as ”industrial” look (i.e. unfinished ceiling). Check-in is only available via kiosk even if an attendant is available at the front desk. The elevator is 2-door style. WiFi connectivity was reasonable and TV was operational. Convenient that a small table with chairs is in the room and overall was spacious enough for 4 of us. Pros: free parking - close to many supermarkets and also the mall Cons: the curtains do not block out the sun sufficiently. Given the long the sun is up in summer, we had to improvise and clip the curtains together to get any blackout effect. For our specific room, the bed sheet had a stain on it (looks like it remained from an earlier wash). For a quick bite, try the Pølsevognen Viby Torv in the park across the street.

After Arriving in Denmark from Vietnam for a business trip, this hotel was a stone through from the office where I was going to be spending the next 10 days in Aarhus, Denmark. The Hotel is modern, functional and clean, the room was comfortable, and the breakfast was perfect, the staff were always attentive and my overall experience during my stay was excellent. The hotel is somewhat outside of the town of Aarhus, but a small frequent train/tram service is literally a few hundred meters walk from the hotel... the hotel as a small bar where you can enjoy a nice cold pint of Danish Beer!!!

Complete facilities, convenient parking, good breakfast! Warm service, comfortable room, five minutes walk to the town center, surrounding gas stations and supermarkets are all available

A quiet guesthouse with friendly service, we stopped on our way to the ferry and we intend to return. The room has everything you need, a comfortable bed, a large TV, microwave and a set of dishesand . In the morning delicious breakfast. The owner allowed us to extend the hotel stay without extra fee
