Friendly staff, tired hotel appearance

We stayed 4 nights because of visit to Astrid Lindgrens VĂ€rld. And overall conclusion that it is a nice hotel, but we do not understand how it has 4 staff, and you do not get value for money. One of us is in a wheel chair, so it is important with handicap friendly room. Unfortunately the promised bath chair was not available the first night. Staff tried to help, but still not ok as we had written in advance and underlined the need. Furthermore the room was not so well for wheel chair due to a small hallway in the room. And it is placed right next to the common area so a lot of noise from people talking during the evening. The rooms were not too clean, and it was not clear on how to arrange cleaning. Breakfast was nice. The hotel is not well isolated so there was a lot of noise from the other rooms. What is good about the hotel is that there is a nice common area, and it is possible to store food in freezer and fridge. When in car the location is ok when visiting Astrid Lindgrens VĂ€rld and her fb Staff is friendly and helpful, but we’re puzzled how the hotel has obtained 4 stars.

Potentiellt kul för barn och nÀra ALV

Vid incheckning fick vi ett oengagerat mottagande. Vi fick ingen info över huvud taget om faciliteterna- pool, lekplats, minigolf, lekrum, filmrum etc. Och dÄ kom vi med barn. Poolen hittade vi pÄ egen hand men visste inte att vi kunde fÄ rabatt med hotellet etc. Rummet ok men var under lekrummet- lÀt som en elefanthjord ovanför. Saknade mjölk till kaffet pÄ rummet. Dessutom var kvÀllsbuffen i restaurangen inte vÀrd sitt pris och att skriva att det finns A la carte nÀr det finns en rÀtt att vÀlja pÄ Àr vÀl sÄdÀr.

FamiljevÀnligt hotell

FamiljevÀnligt hotell med det lilla extra. Bokade ekonomi rum och det var precis lagom för oss. NÀra till lekrum och utomhuspool en bit bort som barnen Àlskade. Enda minuset var brödet till frukosten, torra frallor som inte kÀndes nya. Men resten av frukosten helt ok. Bra standard utbud med Àgg, bacon, fil, pannkakor, vattenmelon mm.

Hyggeligt med plads til forbedringer

Generelt er hyggeligt hotel med masser af muligheder og ligger godt. Det var pÊnt og rent og venligt personale. De er lidt udfordret i restauranten mht. timing.. aftens buffet mangler tit det mest populÊre ting og der var lang ventetid pÄ opfyldning, ligeledes morgenmads buffeten var der lange ventetider pÄ de mest populÊre ting op mod 20 min begge dage
