This is an aged facility, so of course you should not expect too nice rooms but as it is nicely…read moremaintained we felt it was a good stop over while traveling through the region. Rooms was as expected and nothing to complain about. The staff was friendly and very helpful. Breakfast was really nice with a lot of fruit what did exceed the expectations. As the price/ value relation is not too good it gets only 4 points. Side-note: We had a room with a view to the backyard and could enjoy watching a huge number of bunnies jumping around during the evening hours. Very funny!

You can be fooled by the exterior appearance of the hotel and its location. It's 3km away from city…read morecenter but well connected by buses every 15 minutes and there's also a nice road for pedestrians and cyclist. The staff is awesome, very grateful and always trying to help you. Breakfast offers a great variety of high quality food and its definitely a 5/5, and dinner is also top level (both menu and buffet). It has a small pool, sauna and gym and offers free high speed wifi everywhere in the hotel. If you come to Kalmar by car there's no reason why you shouldn't choose this hotel.

Lovely historic hotel in the heart of Kalmar. But know if you go that this hotel sits right on the…read moreedge of the town's main square so be prepared for lots of activity and noise! My first clue should have been the free ear plugs that were on the bedside table when I got to my room!! I knew there was going to be a "concert" as it was described to me the night I stayed at the hotel. What I didn't realize was that this "concert" was a rock and roll band that would draw over 1000 people to fill the town square and that they would stay and party until the wee hours ( the band actually stopped playing around 9:30). Well, when in Rome. . . So I jumped right in and joined the fray, My room had windows that opened on the square so the noise of revelers was easy to hear but it didn't really bother me. But if are a light sleeper- you may want to ask for a room in the back. This hotel is not fancy-but I loved the wide floorboards, the shower had excellent water pressure and the Internet is free. And surprisingly enough- the beds were quite comfortable. The rooms are a bit small and they have way too much furniture in them but they are highly functional. There is breakfast included in your daily rate and this was quite good - bacon and eggs, a choice of cereals, breads and a ton of meats and cheeses. No coffee in the rooms but the coffee in the coffee room was quite good as well. All in all a good value for the money and if you want to meet everyone in town-stop by on a night there's a band playing. You can relax out front at the hotel and all of Kalmar will walk by!

Excellent hotel. I stayed here for Ironman Kalmar 2015 and was very happy!…read more We had a room that was dog friendly and upon checking in, the room had a mat and 2 huge dishes for her! It's the small details that count. The room is on the smaller size, but really who spends time in their room other than sleep! They did allow us to move furniture to the hallway when we needed space for the bikes! The room deco is very boutique, but lacks A/C. It was hard to get a cross breeze so putting a fan in the window was the solution. The bed is comfortable, and extra pillows are in the closet. I slept amazingly well, and had a window to the street. There is a mini-bar, which was good to keep other things cool as well. Bathroom was very clean, and shower has good power and very warm. Excellent way to relax after a race. Only 400m from the finish line, 500m from the swim start, and 600m from the Expo and T1/T2.

We had a hotel brunch here and the selection was sad but understandable for a small town hotel…read more There were only bacon, very watery scrambled egg, limp crepes/pancakes. The soft-boiled egg was on point though... The reason I gave it two stars was because there were flies around the cheese table and dessert table, making me lurched a little bit. Flies are not tolerable anywhere, especially not a hotel that boasts to have the largest whisky bar ever. I don't know whether the workers were just sloppy that day or this is an occurrence. I think I would rather have my brunch (or stay) somewhere else, considering the lobby also smelled strongly of ammonia (I wouldn't dare suggest something else?)

The queue was already forming to be pretty long, the place seemed popular. At Ebbas you order inside, get a tray to take back to your table and then the staff brings the food out to you. I ordered their Hamburger Classic Style (189 SEK), my dad ordered their homemade Schnitzel (159 SEK) and my mum ordered the daily meal Mango Chicken (145 SEK). We were all incredibly satisfied with their food!! So much so that we even stayed and enjoyed a dessert consisting of a Waffle and Coffee each. The restaurant was full and the queue was long, but even through the pressure, the staff was very friendly and helpful when serving us! I would highly recommend this lovely restaurant and their *homemade* food! Items bought: 189:- Hamburger Classic Style 159:- Schnitzel 189:- Mango Chicken 79:- Waffle & Coffee
