Upon arrival we were shown to a room through the kitchen with a view of a concrete wall. We complained and were told that they were fully booked. I finally spoke with a manager who miraculously found another room. This one in the first floor with a view of dumpsters with a homeless woman looking through three trash. Room was very hot with no ventilation. Worst room of our entire 5 week trip to Scandinavia.

Elite Hotel Martenson is situated in old town Halmstad and walkable from the train station. The central location provides easy access to restaurants, parks, cultural events, public facilities and a short bicycle ride to a beautiful beach. The hotel itself was very quaint, well maintained and the staff were always friendly and helpful. The restaurants on site provided another excellent amenity. Although we did not get a chance to use the gym it was probably one of the best equipped we’ve seen

A really nice and hospitable hotel located in a nice walking district with access to restaurants and shops as well as the historic city gate. The on premises restaurant Franz Bistro and the Cafe were excellent! The bar was also very nice. All the staff were pleasant and friendly. The breakfast was excellent with a wide variety of choices. My only suggestion is a note on booking sites and reservation email that the address of the hotel is not on a drivable street. GPS brings you to the rear of the hotel and it's not apparent where to go. I ended up calling to get instruction.

This property was located in a perfect place for anyone visiting Halmstead for the first time. Unfortunately, upon our check out the front desk gal was pretty rude. The beauty of the experience of this beautiful hotel was diminished by her attitude.

Our group of 10 from the U.S all stayed there. We hosted a memorial luncheon for my sister with 40 guests attending. I had been arranging it for the last few months with various staff members via email from the the U.S. All were helpful, accommodating and prompt in replying to all questions and arrangements. The luncheon was beautifully arranged and the food was delicious. Definitely ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for everything and everyone! Thank you for making this trip and event perfect. Eva Harvick

The breakfast each morning was superb. Staff was friendly and helpful. Parking was a bit confusing, however there are public parking lots within a short walk of the hotel in two directions. Of note, the Hotel does not have it's own parking, however that's not really an issue. Plenty of choices in the area to dine, some cool attractions within a short walk, beautiful area along the Nissan river with multiple parks and hiking trails close by.
