Not super great but served us well: good location, nice neighborhood, friendly service, good wifi, clean room. We had a room with a balcony on the top floor and liked it very much. Ten points for free range eggs and iKaffe in the breakfast!
We came to Västerås to participate in an expo at the Aros Congress Center nearby. Arrived in the evening and were pretty hungry. Fortunately the hotel is very centrally located and only one block away from a pedestrian street with plenty of restaurants to choose from. The hotel does not have any parking space though, so you better hope you'll find space on the streets outside. Parking there was free in the evening until 9 o'clock in the morning. (Check the signs, might be different from street to street.)
Stayed at a standard room in this hotel with my wife. Descent price and nice room. The hotel could use some freshening up. If you are looking for a standard room I can recommend it. If you are looking for a more romantic stay you should look for another hotel. The location was very good. Close to restaurants and shops.
Stayed before a few years ago and it's very basic. Friendly service - limited tv ok room which was clean. Breakfast was good. I would stay again if other places are full. Close to the centre with plenty of restaurants near.
Stayed 03DEC - 04DEC. Check in was easy, we did have a car (parking was an additional 60 SEK). The room itself was a little dated, and there was a strong sulfuric smell coming from the bathroom however the hotel is in a good location and walking distance to a lot of restaurants and shops as well. There is a sauna and steam room on the lower floor - it can be a little confusing as it is unisex in one change room. Buffet Breakfast was included, the staff were very kind and the food was delicious. You can tell the hotel and staff are making a conscious effort in improving the level of accommodation which is definitely noted.
Excellent service, very accommodating staff. We had a large group of 37 teenagers and parents and they were beyond helpful and friendly. Rooms were comfortable and the breakfast was outstanding! I will stay here again!
We booked a couple of rooms in the Best Western here for a hot July night. The hotel is well located next to the city centre and, for a small fee (currently 60 SEK), it offers a local car parking space for the first few takers. We agreed and got city centre parking until mid-afternoon the day after we checked in. It allowed us to explore central Vasteras on foot the next morning. July must be a time when visitors go out of town. Those who were there were Swedish and German: older couples and young families. The whole place had a faintly eccesiastical air: courteous and friendly staff, quiet corridors (with floors smelling faintly of wood polish), subdued colours, stone stairs. Not a showey hotel, but I liked it. The bed, shower and breakfast were all fine and so was the wifi. What the hotel lacks, however, is air conditioning. Usually I have issues with air condition (sealed rooms, very dry etc). Here I found the opposite: hot rooms where one could open the windows a bit. Our double room had a desk fan to help alleviate the effects of the heat. We paid £49 for single and £61 for a double from a hotel comparison app and think we got a great deal for the money. There are one or two flashier hotels in town, but the Best Western functions as a high level three star and I'd very much recommend it.
Company provided hotel. Rooms ok, but very hot in summer. No airconditioning. Bisides from that the rooms are clean, friendly staf, ok breakfast. Prices was low, but I think that was company rates. Can recomend for business, but not for romantic weekend :-)
We only stayed one night, after our wedding, the staff were all super friendly and so helpful. They fixed up our room and prepared a wedding surprise with the decorations. They went out of they way for breakfast by preparing a special meal for my wife. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to my friends.
Nicely located, only 5 minutes walk to the Aros congress center, innercity center, with many options of nearby restaurants, and 10 mins dragging luggage to the train station and bus stop to Arlanda airport. Roomsize is standard, space enough to spread a 31" suitcase on the floor. There is an iron and small pressing board attached to the wardrobe. Never seen anyone dining in the restaurant for lunch and dinner, but the breakfast buffet is okay. There is a bowl of apples on the coffee table next to the elevator at lobby level that you can grab during the day and in the evening, and for someone who came in at 2am in the morning, it was quite a bite :)
