The hotel was at a nice location, parking was easy to access with a 250 sek fee. We had a dog friendly room and was welcomed with dog treats and bowls which was super nice! We also got to bring our dog along to the outdoor seating for breakfast. One thing I wish could've been better is the condition of the room. The bathroom didn't have windows which was a bit dark, the walls and doors were also a bit worn down. The bathtub definitely needed some repair on the corner. Overall it was still a good experience.

tilbakemelding Elite stadshotell Karlstad
Hadde ønsket at det var bedre renhold på bord ute, var ikke rengjorde bord og stoler.
I forhold til fugler burde det brukes fugletrådsystemer eller reflekterende fugleskremsel.

Fantastisk frukost! Rent och välskött hotell med väldigt bra läge mitt i stan. Betyget dras ner av ett väldigt trångt badrum.

Bortset fra at man startede med at anvise os et værelse som var helt mørkt. Vinduet var dækket af en presenning pga. håndværkere. Vi fik dog et andet værelse uden vrøvl.

Mkt bra men också lite dåligt
Helt ok. Men varmt på rummet. Trist att frukosten stängde redan 9.30 trots semestertider och att pannkakorna var slut redan 8.30…
Mycket spring o buller från rummet bredvid dvs lyhört.
Trevlig takbar med pool och solhäng!
