Not a great hotel stay
I was there for three nights on business
Booked a double room with balcony
Room very tired, run down and needed a proper clean
There were no draws anywhere in the room to put your clothes just a few hangers! Which being away for three nights is rather annoying you can’t put your clothes away properly.
They don’t clean your room unless you ask, which is unusual most hotels I have stayed in you opt out rather than opt in for room cleaning each day.
Hotel spa, steam room out of order- Very small facility for size of hotel
The breakfast was good
Location is good for parking

Close to the highway. Not the cleanest air to breathe. A definite no for people with allergies. Old wall to wall rugs. Breakfast buffet was pretty bad soggy watery omelet. Watery juice from the dispenser. Bad value for money.

Have stayed in this hotel several times. It is not in central Karlstad so own transport is required. There is free parking and easy access to the main road into Karlstad . Staff are friendly and rooms are clean and spacious . Restaurant serves a good selection for breakfast and evening meal
