We stayed here for a night with friends. It's a great location in the middle of the beautiful town of Visby. We had booked a family room for four people. On arrival, we were shown to one the smallest, pokiest rooms I have ever seen which contained 3 single ( US twin size) beds. It was completely absurd. After some... More

I have stayed at this hotel on several occasions during Visby's Medieval Week - either with my boyfriend or the rest of my family. The hotel has the best location in Visby in my opinion being inside the historical part of town (within the medieval walls) and yet close to the beach offering the most beautiful seafront esplanade. The interior... More

I was completely taken by the surreal medieval charm of this town, and this hotel was very much part of it. We were out of season and on business , so I did not pay directly, but this was one of the most charming and memorable places I have visited. The room was comfortable and unique, and the food fantastic... More

This hotel is really charming and used to be a brewery, so the layout is very odd, but unique. No two rooms are the same, but the plus is that most of the rooms are huge! My parent-in-laws stayed in a regular room and we were in a suite, but both were very roomy! However, since it is quite hilly... More

This is a small and simple hotel in Visby, Gotland in the middle of town. The room was nice but small and the price was high. Ok breakfast but I have had better. Not too much choice. Nice staff! Very helpful! It is close to the sea but you cant swim there.

Our hotel room locates on the third floor, and on the hotel branch which is easy to find.The location of the hotel is very good, i.e., near to coast, 10 mins by walk to shopping center, and not far away from information center.

We stayed at the hotel between Christmas and New years. With a discounted price it is fine, it holds the average standard of Swedish hotels. Clean rooms with no special charm. Good breakfast but not very convenient hours - they could be a bit more generous on that.

We stayed 4 nights at this hotel and we were about 60 people on business. The rooms are nice, and its easy to get lost due to the long hallways. We had a party on the roof, it was overlooking some very old churches, it was nice and very relaxing. This hotel is right infront of the sea boardwalk, and... More

This hotel has been expanding so I cannot tell about the other rooms, but our room was small with minimum facilities. It does not have air conditioning though it costed us $350 a night. It is located at the sea level, that means you can reach it without climbing the hill from a boat but you have to climb up... More

Overall, what an overpriced disappointment. Let me start with the pros: large room, good closet space, green environment. Cons: NO amenities whatsoever -- only soap was in a squeeze bottle by the sink and in the shower, front desk staff was not friendly or welcoming and some were not knowledgeable, not enough seating in the breakfast area, noisy noisy noisy...
