Good stay in convenient location

We had a good stay, the pool area was a bonus and the staff were great. The meals were good quality and breakfast plentiful. The beds were very soft and didn't suit us and rooms a little dated and tired. Overall a nice pleasant stay in the right location for a stop before continuing our journey.

Need renovation

Spent 1 night in 2 standard rooms No 128, 129. The overall hotel condition is quite out of date furniture, bad heater, bad reception TV signal, no refrig. It is not recommended if you will stay for more than 1 night and more than for sleeping purpose. OK breakfast, not special.

Poorly cleaned rooms and the drawers were full with leftover clothes. Breakfast staff were not serving the coffee and the only thing they were interested in was for you to sign a bill even though breakfast was free. The lady making the omelette was bright spot though, always friendly and service minded.

Not a great hotel stay

I was there for three nights on business Booked a double room with balcony Room very tired, run down and needed a proper clean There were no draws anywhere in the room to put your clothes just a few hangers! Which being away for three nights is rather annoying you can’t put your clothes away properly. They don’t clean your room unless you ask, which is unusual most hotels I have stayed in you opt out rather than opt in for room cleaning each day. Hotel spa, steam room out of order- Very small facility for size of hotel The breakfast was good Location is good for parking

Schönes Hotel aber schlecht mit ÖPNV zu erreichen

Das Hotel ist sehr schön. Das Zimmer war etwas in die Jahre gekommen, was man an quietschenden Türen oder nur schwer zu öffnenden Schränken erkennt. Ein Highlight ist der Wellnessbereich. Das Frühstück hat eine gute Auswahl und wird regelmäßig aufgefüllt. Problematisch ist die schlechte Erreichbarkeit mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln. Die Haltestelle direkt vor dem Hotel wird nur stündlich bedient. Eine weiter Entfernte Haltestelle „Sidogatan“ ist in fünfzehn Minuten Fußweg erreichbar. Es führt ein Schotterweg vom Hotel zur Straße. Man bekommt den Eindruck, dass man bei der Konzeption des Hotels nur Autofahrer im Blick hatte.

Bra hotell

Fint hotell. Hade dock sett fram emot pool och bastu. Men flera idrottsgäng med ungdomar upptog alla hotellets faciliteter. Ingen personal som höll koll. Jacuzzin upptogs av säkert 15 ungdomar som stojade och stökade. Bra mat i restaurangen.
