The hotel was locked down from early night until 8 pm. No service and very difficult to get to the parkinglot. Not even coffee was available before 8 am. "Unusual" service and openinghours.

Nice property but lousy laundry facility.

We especially chose this property because it had self service laundry facilities. However, the machine was small and slow. It took 2 hours to wash one load so very inadequate. An upgrade in this area would greatly improve this property. Staff was friendly and helpful. Room was small but clean. We would consider staying here again.

Exploring the area

Two of my grandparents emigrated from this area 100 years ago. This hotel was a convenient homebase for exploring the area. The hotel had a lot of amenities that we did not use - everything from pool table to sauna. The room was small as was the bathroom. The space for hanging clothes was inadequate for us because we were on a two week vacation. The hallway to our room seemed dark.

Do not trust the ratings of this hotel

I picked this hotel because of the nice rating on Hotels.com. This is a very ordinary three star hotel, rather old and bad location. Nothing horrible, but I simply cannot beleive that this rating is generated in a honest way.

Mycket fint och trevligt. Fräscht och välstädat, mysigt och ombonat. Utmärkt läge nära Centralstationen. MEN: takfönster utan någon som helst gardin, persienn e.d. gjorde att rummet badade i dagsljus från kl 04 på morgonen med förstörd nattsömn som följd. Inte bra.

Bra, billigt hotell i Vänersborg!

Rummet var väldigt "basic", det fanns det man behövde, inte mer. Lite hård säng. Men, frukosten var bra, och det estetiska intrycket av frukost restaurang och reception var jättefint, många fina detaljer, kort sagt, det var snyggt!

Godt hotel på vej gennem Sverige.

Kom efter reception var lukket men info om adgang til hotel og værelse fungerede fint. Registrering af bil til parkering var lidt problematisk pga. dårlig netforbindelse og lidt ærgerligt, at der ikke er gratis parkering ved hotellet. Morgenmaden var til gengæld med mange muligheder og ganske god og der var endda "To go" kaffe at køre videre på.
