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 The overall hotel condition is quite out of date furniture, bad heater, bad reception TV signal, no refrig.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.

Ett hotell som är värt att boka

Gillar man mjuka sängar och kuddar så är detta perfekt. Hotellet ligger perfekt vid motorvägen, dock så hör man inte motorvägen. Nära in till centrum. Utmärkt frukost. Det finns säkert en massa saker är utmärkt på hotellet. Exempelvis poolområdet, restaurangen men detta hann vi inte med att prova.

Bra hotell!

Et greit hotell ikke så veldig langt fra sentrum! Fikk gode priser gjennom Hotels.com Gammelt så er ikke noe god temperaturstyring men det var vifte på rommet. Sto at det var Spa på hotellet men et boblebad og badstue syns jeg ikke er nok til å kalle det et Spa! Alt i alt et bra hotell med god frokost, godt øl, kaldt basseng og gode senger! Ligger ved hovedvei så kan være litt støy fra lastebiler.

Lite nedgånget men OK

Hotellet bokar alla rutor för att vara OK. Det gör inte så mycket att mattan i badrummet är från 1990 eller att byggnaden i allmänhet är lite sliten. Så sammanfattningsvis skulle jag säga att det är ett OK motorvägshotell som håller vad det lovar men du kommer inte bli någon exceptionell upplevelse.

Kanonbra för hundägare

I det stora hela så var det bra, vi hade hundar med oss och blev väldigt väl mottagna. Men rummet låg precis över poolen och många högljudda barn väsnades långt efter stängning 21.00. Rummet var väldigt varmt trots ett gott försök med en fläkt. Borde börja med AC på rummen som det är utomlands.

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.

Hotellet är perfekt för barnfamiljer där barnen är simkunniga. Tyvärr blir hela poolområdet ockuperat av dessa vid bra väder så det är svårt att få en plats att sitta på vid poolområdet. Maten är enkel men väldigt bra

Hotellet är bra, dugligt. Rent och ett väldigt fräscht badrum. Personalen var ung och oerfaren. Dom gjorde säkert så gott dom kunde, men deras brist på erfarenhet visade sig i form av ej uppmärksamma på middagsgäster. Ingen som frågade om vi önskade något annat efter middagen, typ dessert. Svårt att få kontakt med servingspersonalen när det var dags att betala notan. På det stora hela, en duglig/ medioker vistelse.

Hyggelig

Generelt hyggelig hotell å være på. Pleier å dra hit når vi er i Karlstad. Hyggelig og hjelpsomt personale😊 Rommene er altfor varme, hotellet burde investere i aircondition. Servitørene i restauranten burde også vært kjappere. Vi ventet 15-20 minutter på to små drinker. Hun sto å prøvde å lage dem hele denne tiden, virket som hun ikke visste hva hun gjorde. Overhørte at hun spurte om hva ting var osv.
