This was my second attempt at booking somewhere nice to stay in Visby, at sadly it wasn't much better than the one that I had cancelled last minute on arrival. Thankfully I was only here for two nights, and the positives were that it was in a good position, fairly quiet area, and close to the Destination Gotland terminal for a very early start back to the mainland. On the plus side, the breakfast was good. Though the room was big, and I like being at the top of the hotel with the velux windows, the layout was odd, and generally everything lacked practicality. I was lead to believe in the description of my room, that I was in a newly renovated annexe, but I am not sure 'newly' was that new. The furniture was scruffy and a bit dirty, the bathroom was tiny, and the bedding just didn't smell that fresh - yuk! There was also no evidence that a maid had been in to make my bed, empty the bins etc. as you would usually expect in a hotel. The building was very historic, and the staircase was stunning, but I feel more could have been done to make the entrance etc. more inviting and feel more 4*, as allegedly it was. Outside, there were multiple dead plants in pots, the stone steps weren't just worn, but badly kempt, and on entering there was the smell of a cheap, plug-in air freshener. On the whole, very disappointing...

Pleasant and quiet stay in a comfortable room

Very quiet and peaceful place. Well appointed room. Breakfast verged on a simpler buffet type. Building is on the hill top and in the 1700s or 1800s served as Gotland’s archive. Lovely view of harbour from our bedroom. Well located just a 10-minute walk into the heart of Visby.

building itself was very old and that create some minor issues, e.g. main door stairs were a bit worned out etc. However, nice small hotel + location was great - very easy to access downtown + easy to get out from the town (buy car). Breakfast Ok, also for food restriction one's. No complains for room service/cleaning

We thoroughly enjoyed this little manor house. Loved the floor heating in the bathroom and the beautiful ancient windows. Absolute best was their breakfast, by far the BEST breakfast I ever had at any hotel around the world. The only thing that was a bit unusual, we booked the deluxe room and were expecting a sitting area, but only got one chair and a stool at a tiny desk. It did not look like the picture n the internet. It only bugged me on the one day we had rain and hung out in the room for a bit. Walkable to town without being in the midst of party area at night. Quiet enough to sleep with the windows open. Loved this experience.

This is a typically wonderful Scandic hotel with excellent service, great beds, and decadent breakfasts and is right across the road from the Central Train Station. It also has a good, though oddly painted dark, gym. The outside is safe but a lot of smokers and drunks hang out there.

Not much atmosphere

A pleasant hotel but the reception area is very small and the rest of the building comprised corridors with rooms and no social space (that I could find). Helpful receptionists but not 24/7. Breakfast OK but unremarkable. Nice Swedish decor but elements of the hotel looked tired (eg room documentation and signs, broken steps up to the entrance).

Trevlig och hjälpsam personal i receptionen. Rummet mysigt men spindelväv på sina ställen. Jättemjuka sängar. Frukosten blev tyvärr en besvikelse. Löskokt ägg var hårdkokt, bränt bacon, äggröra nästan slut vid 8.30, kaffet smakade knappt kaffe och borde bytas ut till annan sort, eller doseras starkare. Saknade också osötat fiberrikt rågbröd. Ingen handduk/papper på WC vid frukostmatsalen, så man fick ta toapapper. Kändes inte rent/underhållet där inne. Men läget och atmosfär vs. pris är det ändå ett bra boende.
