Avevo chiesto un Hotel con ristorante e sebbene alla fine ho mangiato, non si può parlare di ristorante vero e proprio. La cosa che mi ha sconcertato è che in camera ad un certo punto arrivavano odori dalla cucina che e non sono riuscito a capire da dove arrivassero. Altro appunto è sulla receptionist che non parlava altre lingua che lo svedese, se prevedi di essere un hotel internazionale devi avere personale adeguato.

Ett väldigt fint boende med mycket bra personal. Hotellet ligger väldigt fint också. Tyvärr upplevde vi att det slarvades lite, t.ex. hade båda gardinerna släppt från sina fästen, kaffe fylldes inte på till morgon nr 2, även frukosten fylldes på lite dåligt. En väldigt fin uteplats med boule och andra ’leksaker’ fanns men det kändes som om detta lämnats kvar ute sen i höstas och såg inte så roligt ut nu.

Mycket trivsam vistelse. Gammal byggnad så rummen hade höga fönster, högt i tak. Frukosten var en upplevelse. Stort utbud och smakfullt serverat. Trevligt bemötande från all personal. Återvänder gärna till denna lilla pärla till hotell.
