Stora Frö Holiday Rentals

"150 year old architectural jewel of a hotel with gorgeous hard wood floors located in one of Scandinavia’s best kept secrets, Kalmar! Loved the town and one of Europe’s most picturesque castles. "

"Fabulous place to stay. Quiet despite our room being so close to the restaurant and it being midsummer’s eve and day, there was absolutely no noise issues. The women at reception were friendly and the one on the morning we left was particularly kind, allowing us to leave our luggage and refill our water bottles for our onward journey to stockholm. Kalmar is a fabulous small town to visit and surprisingly it has been one of our favorite places on our 2 month trip through the Baltic states and Scandinavia "

"Perfect location. "

"Lovely stay"

"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. "

"Staff & Service would received 5 stars if not for one of the staff members in the spa. We seemed like an inconvenience. Beyond that everything was wonderful."

"The apartment worked for our small family very well. Separate bedrooms is such a plus when traveling with an adult child. International travelers should be aware of a few things: there are no soaps, shampoo, etc included unless a previous guest leaves some behind. AND there are no linens / towels automatically included, they must be ordered ahead of time and paid separately. If you don’t know this and roll in late and the restaurant is closed you will be sleeping on beds with no linens. AND you are expected to clean the unit top to bottom unless you pay for an extra fee for cleaning. They say they will charge you for having to clean the unit if it does not meet their standards. When we checked in I found the toilet was dirty with dirty tissues in the bowl and toilet paper plastered to the top rim. So I don’t know how closely they inspect the units. The property is in very good condition, our unit had no mechanical or maintenance problems. There was a table and 4 chairs available on a private porch along with a grill. Plenty of parking for everyone. A very short walk down to the small beach. This property would be great for a relaxing vacation, the island has everything you need with groceries and shopping. We didn’t eat at the restaurant so i can’t comment on it, but they did have a wood fired oven for pizza. I would stay here again knowing what I know now, but definitely plan differently. Also having to pay for linens & cleaning ups the base price. "

"This property suited our needs for an overnight stay. Parking was easy and convenient. They offered a breakfast buffet in the morning that was nice. The room was clean, as was the property. We never interacted with anyone, so if we had any questions, it might have been difficult. The area around the hotel seemed commercial, but we were just there for an overnight stay for nearby visit. "
