Decent hotel in pleasant town
Good hotel other than the smell in the bathroom was unpleasant. Suspect there was a blockage somewhere. Room otherwise more than adequate.

Best hotel in Sweden (I have tried)
Incredible place, perhaps I was lucky, but the price was very cheap for the experience. The server in the restaurant gave me service I have never had before, even gave me beer tasting first since I asked about the beers and already chose one.
Also the sauna is great. The hotel is super well organized making for a great experience for every single customer.

Bra hotell i Karlstad
Allt var toppen förutom att restaurangen var stängd och informationen om detta var tvetydig.

Uten vinduer på rommet og ikke fungerende ventilasjon var rommet forferdelig hva luftkvalitet angår. Dårlig søvn.Ellers veldig bra og trivelig hotell som vi absolutt vil anbefale dersom rom med vindu med velges.
