Independent Smaland hotels

"Trevlig personal i receptionen, stort rum för 2 vuxna och 2 barn, lite stökig frukostmiljö efter 8.30, helt okej frukost med det man behöver. Överlag väldigt nöjda!"

"We had a nice visit to Kalmar and enjoyed our stay at this hotel. It is convenient to the train station as well as the central part of the city. The breakfast is delicious and the staff are so friendly and helpful. "

"Great hotel, very friendly staff. "

"Överlag var det en bra övernattning. Det uppfyllde förväntningarna. Vi åt i restaurangen, den höll ”knappt godkänd”kvalité. Maten innehöll inget ”extra” utan kändes som ”skaplig hemmakvalité”, inte något ”extra” i form av smak, tillagning eller så. Kändes som en tripp tillbaka till hur maten tillagades på 70/80-talet. Efterrätten tog priset. Paj med säsongens frukt. Det visade sig vara ett torrt pajskal (inte en tillstymmelse till färg - troligen prefabricerat som man inte gjort något med). Över detta pajskal hade man sedan slängt på en massa rabarberkräm (såg inte pajskalet förrän man började äta - det var dränkt i kräm) - ovanpå allt låg en kula glass. Vi kunde inte annat än att skratta åt det. Så, vill ni uppleva matlagning från 70/80-talet så ska ni äta där. Annars finns det klart bättre alternativ. Men, hotelldelen o frukost var vi mycket nöjda med. "

"The main building of the Gyllene Uttern looks like a Scandinavian castle. Perched high above Lake Vättern, it has a grand view of the lake, whether from a large terrace, one of its several lounging spaces, a glassed-in dining room, or from rooms facing the lake. It also has a baronial dining room, in which the very good breakfast buffet is laid out. We dined there in the evening, as well, and the food was excellent. We enjoyed comfortable suites overlooking the lake. The one disadvantage is that the old, castle-like hotel does not have an elevator, which made carrying up luggage a challenge, especially as we three couples were of ages 60 to 82. There was no indication of staff to assist with the luggage, which is the reason I gave "Staff & Service" 4 stars instead of 5. It has two newer two-story auxiliary buildings, which do have elevators. We have stayed in these before. The rooms are very comfortable, but not as charming as staying in a pseudo castle. "

"Perfect location. "

"Great, central location and excellent value for money. Not the most glamorous or modern but if you're looking for a clean, friendly place in central Kalmar, you can't do much better than this. Would absolutely stay here again. "

"Nice staff! But the hotel is worn down and they do not clean if you do not specifically ask for it. Nice breakfast and good gym. "
