Svårt att hitta rum och vägar på hotellet. Bodde i den gamla delen och det lånades som en labyrint med hissnyten och trappor varje gång vi skulle dit. Förra vistelsen då vi bodde i den nyare delen var mycket trevligare och bättre.

Supernöjd med hotellet, lyxigt, fräscht, modernt och rent! Jättefint rum, väldigt skön säng, sov som en drottning. Väldigt god och lugn hotellfrukost i trevlig utomhusmiljö. Glad och trevlig personal. Lyxigt med takpool och bar. Kommer gärna tillbaka.

Litt av hvert

Det var dumt at parkeringshuset var fult, så vi måtte parkere ute, et stykke unna Badegulvet ble såpeglatt lenge før såpe ble brukt i dusjen. Direkte farlig! Dusjen spruta utover halve badet. En heis som gikk så treigt at en rakk å gå opp før den kom til destinasjonen. Fint med liten balkong på en varm kveld!

The hotel was at a nice location, parking was easy to access with a 250 sek fee. We had a dog friendly room and was welcomed with dog treats and bowls which was super nice! We also got to bring our dog along to the outdoor seating for breakfast. One thing I wish could've been better is the condition of the room. The bathroom didn't have windows which was a bit dark, the walls and doors were also a bit worn down. The bathtub definitely needed some repair on the corner. Overall it was still a good experience.

Karlstad sola

En vesentlig ting som er for dårlig er at rommene er for varme om sommeren og vinduene var blokkert på liten åpning. I tillegg var det voldsom støy fra biltrafikk og fest stemte mennesker til klokka 0300 om natta. Men betjeningen og bishops arms drar opp og de har fantastisk frokost.

Fick först ett väldigt trist rum, men fick smidigt och lätt byta. Tack för den servicen! Det nya rummet kunde dock varit bättre städat, det fanns små plastbitar på golvet i badrummet och bakom en gardin låg hopkny cklat papper och en tops. Vi har bott på hotellet förut och kommer trots allt gärna tillbaka.
