A very nice stay in Silkeborg. Lovely helpful staff at check-in. Nice and spacious suite 9 in the old building. I wouldn’t choose a room in the main building which has the feeling still of an old hospital in the corridors. The hotel has a very nice garden setting and peaceful location just outside the city centre and close to a beautiful lakeside swimming area. Easy parking onsite. Lovely lounge and bar area with board games for evening relaxing and nice breakfast room with outside over the gardens. Included breakfast was good but only available until 9:30am. Restaurant onsite is ok but expensive. Would stay again and recommend if booking the high tier room type.

Brilliant hotel, amazing stafff

Superb hotel, extremely kind and accommodating staff. Loved the breakfast, free bicycle use, beach towels, beautiful garden and walking trails. Dinner was of good quality and reasonable value, especially the wine. The hotel is well positioned relative to the town centre and swimmable Almind Lake.

Listen over ting som var helt i top er lang, men særligt personalet var en udsøgt fornøjelse. Så her er et par småting til forbedringstavlen: Der kunne godt være en føntørrer og et lille køleskab på værelset - og det ville også være rart hvis døren til toilettet kunne lukke ordentligt. Men ellers ærgerer vi os bare over at vi kun havde een overnatning, for der er godtnok dejligt at være på Gl. Skovriddergaard.

Gammelt og ærverdig hotell. Stilig gammel stil innvendig. Ble veldig hyggelig mottatt. Alt lå klart 10 minutter etter bestillingen var utført på nett. Veldig hyggelig betjening. Både i mottakelsen og i restauranten. Veldig god mat og drikke. Kjempegod frokost/morgenmad. Kan virkelig anbefales

Morgenmaden var VIRKELIG dårlig. Vi kom derned 9.20 og der var næsten intet tilbage. Frugten var på ingen måde frisk. Vandmelon smagte råddent osv. Intet af det varme var der mere af. Kun en lille rest scrambled eggs, og kolde blødkogte æg.
