Ok, so I chose this hotel according to other reviews and lack of hotels with good standard nearby…read moreLysekil. Gullmarsstrand rate themselves as a four star hotel but I think three stars are more accurate. Our one night stay costed 1750 sek for their basic standard double bed room which I personally think is way too much for the standard of the room. The only window led to our neighbours terrace (their outside furniture about 50 cm from our window). Here are the pros and cons in my opinion: Pros: Location! Very beautiful location in Fiskebäckskil. Close to the ocean and the ferry over to Lysekil. The hotel feels very "zen" and relaxed. Very easy to park the car. Clean rooms, nice clean toilet with a good shower. Quick check in and check out. Polite staff. Nice breakfast with something for everyone. Hair dryer in the room. Cons: It feels a lot like a conference centre, that is you don't get the personal feel from the staff. Most of the time they looked away when entering a area. When checking in no information about facilities like the spa, sauna or restaurant. No bellboy. Nothing in the room on arrival that made us feel special, not even the classic chocolate on the pillow, mini bar or equipment to boil water for tea or coffee. Very few channels on the TV and with bad quality. WiFi available but you need to register at Telia to access it, not that fast either. Only one wall socket under the desk, I think it's important with sockets close the the headboard of the bed. No aircon. No equipment in the room for ironing. No room service. No safebox. Their restaurant were very exclusive with mostly fish on the menu. I think, according to the price, the standard could have been better. If the room would have costed less this review would not been this negative. This is absolutely not a four star hotel.

My parents and I went here today and at first it seemed a bit deserted because we came in the off…read moreseason in November. But after we went through the entrance gate we found the animals. We came on a Monday and we only passed about 3 other people. Then when we got to the leopard exhibit they were being fed and it was very entertaining watching the leopards run over and eat. The animals I enjoyed seeing the most were the Tigers, wild dogs, the snow leopard, the Wolverines and the red panda. Furthermore, I really liked how much space each animal got in their enclosure. It's nice to see that these endangered animals get so much space in these very natural enclosures.

This is a hotel in transition!…read more The negative bits; The room I have is not quite finished! There are bits of it which need painting or the cupboard putting in. The toilet has the smell of sea water about it, which I have only ever experienced in a hotel which recycles the water it used to flush the toilet. The free wifi is hit or miss and the receptionist will tell you it is working or you can 'buy' a 24 hour access code to another network within the hotel. It is a combination of an older building to which they have added a new building. The workmen are still visible in certain areas of the building and I guess dependant upon where your room is this could be an issue if you should desire a late wake up. That said the staff have been helpful with trying to solve minor issues. The food has been good and the view from the upper observation deck, of the Uddevallabron bridge, is quite spectacular (on a sunny day) if you don't look to far right that is as that is where the working docks are as opposed to the view across the fiords.

Vann Spa & Hotell is situated off a small windy road surrounded by nature. The grounds are quite…read morebeautiful and the view of the water that you can see from the dining room, outdoor pool and spa are fantastic. The spa itself is very big, with a large indoor warm pool that looks out to the water. There are a few smaller pools that may fit roughly 10 people that are built into the wall like small caves. The large dry wood sauna has a glass floor to ceiling window that also faces the water. There are two other saunas, one steam one dry. The treatment room is fairly barebones in the decor, but both treatments I had were excellent, a collagen facial & pedicure that was more like a foot treatment. Estheticians were very professional and great at what they do. I'd give the spa service and staff 5 stars. Only 3 overall as the hotel rooms are very small, minimalist and property feels very much like its suited for conferences and large groups. This would be a great venue for a bachelorette / bachelor party.
