Vi var veldig fornøyd med rommet med havutsikt. Flott sted og god beliggenhet. Veldig synd at det ikke er servering av noe slag bortsett fra god frokost. Det finnes en nydelig terrasse, men altså ingen servering der, vi tok med kaffe.. Det lille vi så av personalet var hyggelig. Nesten ikke varmt vann i dusjen. Veldig dårlig wifi på tv så det gikk ikke an å se på.

Topp

Risør Hotel er koselig og personalet hyggelig. De godtar også hund. Vi fikk et svalt rom med uteplass, senga var utrolig komfotabel med store gode puter. Badet var rent og frokosten meget god. Vi kommer tilbake helt sikkert.

Helt ok, men litt å klage på allikevel

Ok opphold, men det var iskaldt på rommet og frokosten var ikke bra. Appelsinjuicen på tappekranen var dårlig og smørpakningene var harsknet og bar preg av å ha vært ut og inn av kjøla flere ganger, men datoen var innenfor. Veldig flott rom og god seng. Det var et moderne spyle toalett på badet, men det virket dog ikke…. Folkene som jobbet der var vennlige og imøtekommende. Kommer nok tilbake når det er sesong…

2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Gammalt och ofräscht

Det bästa med hotellet är dess läge – i övrigt var det en stor besvikelse. Hotellet är slitet och typ 80-talsstandard och inredningen ser ut att vara från någon loppis. Kan vara charmigt att inreda med gammal stil men detta såg bara billigt ut, trist. Må hända att det är en liten stad med litet utbud av hotell men detta var rent ut sagt hutlöst dyrt för låg standard! På mitt rum satt TV:n väldigt snett – inte för det betyder jättemycket men säger lite om att man inte bryr sig om detaljer. Rummet jag fick var mot baksidan och i gathöjd vilket gjorde att förbipasserande kunde se rakt in i rummet när fönsterna var öppna vilket behövdes för att lufta ut då det var tokvarmt och saknades luftkonditionering. Välj ett annat hotell är min rekommendation.

Charged double payment

The Hotel itself was good but the service was not. Breakfast disappointing. Major issue was that they required us to pay in full upon arrival even though we had booked and pre-paid in full. So we had to pay twice! Contacted hotels.com who promptly resolved the issue and reimbursed our payment through them. No explanation or excuse from Hotel. Hotels.com - 10/10 Risør Hotel 1/10

Flott hotell, men servicen må bli bedre.

Betjeningen bar preg av å være lite erfarne og at de var lite serviceinnstilte. Beliggenheten og været var meget bra, men ledelsen har en jobb å gjøre med serviceinnstillingen til personalet.
