Hotel op een centrale locatie. Personeel was behulpzaam, maar met name de receptioniste was te direct. Goed om te zien dat sommige personeelsleden LGBT+ steunen met een badge. Het avondeten en ontbijt inbegrepen in de prijs was prima, maar niets bijzonders.

The hotel is old and the rooms are small. The service is not bad.

The location of this hotel is good, quite in the center and close to the gallery of Lars Lerins (Sandgrund). It is always good when the staff is certain about which location is best to park in, I would urge the hotel administration to get a deal with on of the parking companies nearby. The interior of the hotel could be nicer, both when it comes to furnishing and painting of the wall (loose skirting board should be attached). Karlstad is the home of the Swedish roastery 'Löfbergs Lila', that should be celebrated when breakfast is served. The hotel has nice staff, cleanliness was good, elevator in place.

Quick check-in and friendly service. The room was nice and modern. Great range of warm and cold breakfast options, with allergy information. There was even a different section with gluten and lactose free options, with a separate cutting board and cutlery (great for celiacs).

The location of the hotel environment is very good, it is very convenient to go to the surrounding attractions, eating and shopping are also more convenient, in short, I am satisfied, I will stay here next time I have a chance! !

Overall a below average experience. We had 4 rooms traveling af families. Overall the hotel seemed overhelmed by high season Restaurant was a mess and was placed in a conference room. We came to the restaurant at 19:00 with a booking for 10. We was the last guest to order food. the experience of setting in a conference room was clear. After seeing the buffet we decided to order a la carte. We order from the menu with no extra request and 4 of them kids menus. It took mere than 1 hour for the food to come… BUT 3 courses missing!! Another wait and we was not able to eat at the same time. The chef was polite and was given a apology and it seemed like they where trying. After the meal we explained our disapointment to the wait staff and some persistent explaining. We was offered a discount. Next time we eat in the city. Morningbuffet was a mystery! Large buffet but overall not inspiring and alot of readymade options. One thing we simply dont understand according to Scandic profile of beeing healthy and nutritious for kids…. Serving candy and Oreo’s for kidsbuffet ?? Rooms was fine but when you booked for 4 persons it gives a not ready feeling when the bunkbeds needed to be prepared. VERY NOISY! Alot of noise from the street from loud cars and the floor above us was noisy from foodsteps.

The hotel is very old. In 1883, the room didn't have air conditioning. I had a particularly hot day in August, I couldn't sleep in the evening, there was no air conditioning, and although there was an electric fan in the room, it was still hot. Breakfast is not bad.
