Search Best Hotels in Visby

The hotel is located in the old town of Visby, with a rich breakfast and worth a stay. Toothbrushes and slippers should be brought by yourself.

Wonderful hotel, perfect location just a few minute's walk from Stora Torget. Clean, cozy rooms, fantastic breakfast, pleasant staff, very reasonably priced. Plenty of street parking available when we were there (beginning of May). (*) There is, however something we'd like to point out. In order to conserve water, the hotel encourages its guests to ”say no to room cleaning”, to keep washing towels and bed linens to a minimum. Great in theory, especially if you are only there a few nights. We had a longer stay, and would have appreciated our room being tidied up a bit (after all, we're paying the service). Since no staff came in the room, towards the end of our stay, we had to hunt down toilet paper and shower gel, and our trash can was overflowing. Luckily we were able to get hold of the receptionist before she left for the day to get a new TP roll. Most hotels clean rooms daily, and change towels when guests request that. The universal ”throw towels on the bathroom floor if you want new ones” would have worked well at Hotell Slottsbacken. We were left with the feeling that while we were trying to be environmentally conscious, we were giving the cleaning crew a free pass. That said, we would absolutely stay at Hotell Slottsbacken again if we ever return to Gotland.

Very worth experiencing the cabin, although mini but everything is equipped, there is a small yard! If a family of four stays, the price is too high! Unfortunately, I booked for one night, if I come next time, I must book a few more days in advance! Before leaving, I met the staff who came to clean, very enthusiastic, and helped me find the next hotel! A great experience! My son also likes it! It should be noted that bedding (sheets, quilt covers, pillowcases) bath towels and toiletries should also be provided by themselves or asked them to pay for rent. This is also the norm in most homestays or apartments in Northern Europe!

I can't say enough about this place. First, it's in easy walking distance (10 minutes over cobblestones) of the ferry from Nynashamn. Kalk is located on a charming street beside a small section of the medieval wall that surrounds/surrounded Visby. You can walk out the door and be close to old church ruins and the town center with its many restaurants. And in the morning, you'll enjoy the best free breakfast we had in Sweden, which is saying something. The rooms are comfortable, wonderfully appointed (the tiles are made of Gotland stone with fossils) and the beds terrific. Our room on the second floor had a nice view of the charming narrow streets and houses below. Higher up (and more expensive) rooms have balconies and a view of the water, but we didn't spring for those. The service is terrific. The helpful woman at the front desk helped us arrange a car rental to visit the island of Fârö to the north, which was well worth the trip. The front desk closes after 6:00pm, but it's easy to let yourself in. If you like small, unique hotels, this is an exemplar of one. I still dream about that breakfast.

The service was excellent, extremely helpful reception team. An example of the helpfulness, we arrived around 6 AM and I asked about when we could expect to check in to the room in order to plan our day. The unexpected answer was we will clean your room first as soon as the cleaning staff arrives, so around 9:30 we could check in. The customer in center when solving problems instead of hiding behind policies, amazing attitude!

Great hotel in Visby. Good breakfast and comfortable beds. Very comfortable.

If you have a dog, then this is THE hotel to book if you are visiting Visby! When we arrived we found the dog bed, a blanket, a towel, food bowls and a small bag with two treats, two poop bags and a welcome letter! Extremely nice feeling! Just love it! The staff was all super friendly as well.

I do agree with one of the previous posters, when I booked on booking.com I thought this was a hotel....like all other hotels I've ever been at but it's not. This is a 'self-service' ”hotel”....almost like an AirBnB I guess. You check yourself in with a door code, and a code for the lock box - there is no front desk, just a cleaning person making up the rooms...but you could use a special code for the luggage storage room if you arrived early and store your luggage. That was great for us as we arrived at 11:30am. When we returned at later that afternoon, We were fortunate the cleaner happened to be still there making up rooms because our code didn't open our rooms key box. She was able to access for us which saved us having to e-mail/ call the hotel line....which would have been a pain since in Sweden we did not have a phone data plan. But on the upside the room was very comfortable and pretty well kept, I loved the air conditioning and the full kitchen - great for making a quick bite. The location is in the old town of Visby - very close to the gate leading to a few shops, I didn't find any street noise whatsoever but some rooms I suppose may. It was a bit odd too having to take out the garbage and wash up and put away your dishes...but I understand it keeps the costs down. It's worth staying here if you'd like to prepare a few of your own meals as the kitchenette is well stocked, but if you're used to asking the front desk for restaurant recommendations, directions or anything at all for that matter....well you may want to go elsewhere.

We actually stayed in this hotel in June 22 not July, but are very late writing our review. We stayed for midsummer weekend in one of the apartment suites. I must say that the first thing we thought when we stepped in the room was, ”I wonder if the hotel have made a mistake”. Our apartment honestly looked like it should have been 3 times what we paid for it. It's a historic building and the rooms are tastefully authentic. In short, they're just gorgeous!! My husband and I travel a lot and agree it's one of the coolest we've ever stayed! The staff we're great, happy and friendly. Always on hand to answer any need. Breakfast was in the main building. It had a lovely selection every day. In fact we arrived late for breakfast one morning but they were more than happy accommodate us.

Breakfast is great Right next to the Gothic Museum. Walk down the alley to the Baltic coastline, perfect
