Odensjö Badplats

This is a large, traditional hotel in the center of the city, within easy walking distance of the railroad station and the cathedral. The Småland museum and House of Emigrants are also within walking distance. The rooms were comfortable, and the breakfast buffet was very good. The hotel was two restaurants, one is Japanese and the other, the Bishops Arms, is more like an English pub. It was very crowded and noisy, when we went there for dinner, and the order-at-the-bar service was not the best. (There are many other restaurants nearby). A disadvantage was that the hotel was under renovation, so the reception area was on a second level and there was a lack of public lounging spaces. Parking is convenient in an immediately adjacent surface lot, but it is a municipal lot in which payment is required between 9 am and 6 pm.
