A great hotel

Friendly, efficient and clean. Broad choice of beers and a good menu for dinner as well as a great choice at breakfast. Even a bowling alley if that floats your boat. And all for a pretty reasonable price.

nice property

The hotel was nice, though quite understaffed. Had to find help to check in from someone in the kitchen. Not sure how a hotel that offers no air conditioning, in room safe or even an iron can be considered a 4 star property....but it was very clean and comfortable. My room was ground level, so i didn't feel safe to leave the windows open all night & as there were no screens,bugs became an issue very quickly. The layout was unique & it would be possible for them to hold several different private events at one time....IF they hired more staff. Because of that shortage, dinner service was very slow, despite my being the only customer for nearly 30 minutes. Breakfast was nice.

Suverän service!

Det personliga bemötandet var över all förväntan!! Vilka underbara personer som jobbar här!! Ni löste en sen middag för oss utan det minsta knot och mötte oss med ett leende och fantastiskt god mat dessutom! Det enda som jag kan tänka är att ni borde se över är belysningen på rummet. Först och främst byta ut trasiga lampor, men även generellt, som kvinna vill man gärna ha lite mer funktionell belysning för att kunna göra makeupen. Sen var det tråkigt att se handdukshängaren hänga på "trekvart".

Mysigt och familjärt med härlig frukost

-Ett mycket trevligt hotell som låg bra till hands när vi skulle fira födelsedag med familjen över helgen. Ligger Ca 35 min från Arena Skövde (med fint upplevelsebad) och ca 30 min från Hornborgasjöns skådespel. —-Bowlingspel på fredagskvällen (i hotellets lokaler!) och mycket god trerättersmeny på lördagen. Dessvärre var hamburgermenyn vi beställt till fredagen ”bortglömd” (vi var 15 pers) och det vi serverades var bedrövligt! -Dock var servicen fantastisk (tack Hege) och man drog av hälften på fredagens matnota vid utcheckning, för att kompensera för fredagens fadäs. Frukosten var suverän och uppskattades av såväl barn som vuxna. -Underbar jacuzzi och bastu som, några av oss nyttjade en av kvällarna. -Mysigt och familjärt ställe dit vi gärna återvänder.
