This suite was so amazing - I really enjoyed my night at this place and city. The only thing I can find a bit spot on is the breakfast - it was nothing special but fine for me anyway. The hotel is just beside shopping and a lot of restaurants. I will for sure come back to this amazing place!
Offered smaller rom than payed for on hotels.com 20 sqm wit 2 sepatate beds instead ov 28 sqm with Kingbed ! Reception reaction was only Hotels com requested standard room and that is what you get.no attemp to fix or uppgrade just ask if i am member Hotel is nice clean with good staff central located and has secure garrage [ +240sek)
Weir continuous sounds all day that made it annoying. Blinds in the window was not enough to keep the lights out. Need more fabric☺️

Vi hade standard dubbelrum mot innergården som upplevdes härligt ombonat, fint med litet vin (kostnad) som stod
framme, kaffe/te möjlighet, riktig skön säng, perfekt fräsch sänglinne, fönster som kan öppnas. Badrummet upplevdes nyrenoverad, fräsch, mycket komfortabel. Vi har bott på flera olika hotell men frukosten här på John Bauer var utöver det vanliga! Fantastiskta frukost värdar som hade 100% koll på allt. Mycket egna producerade saker och även till mig som är mjölkallergiker fanns bra val. Vi kommer gärna tillbaka!
Supertrevligt hotell, bra frukost, trevlig personal, fina rum. Och hundvänligt! 10/10

Trevligt bemötande. Rent och snyggt. Mycket tyst. Bra sängar, täcken och kuddar. Mycket god mat i restaurangen och bra frukost med allt man kan tänka sig. Garage i källaren under hotellet. Mycket nöjd med allt!
