It was our second time at Högbo Brukshotell and I was actually a bit disappointed with the accommodation. We stayed in a "business room" in the main building.
The room felt a bit dated but it was spacious and clean and the beds were comfy, so far so good. The bathroom was another story, at first it looked clean (but a bit boring) but the shower showed severe sings of mould. Actually, the shower/bathtub faces a window which is not water protected. Over the years it had created some serious damage to the window and the tiling. There visible mould around the window and one can only guess what's growing behind the cracked tiling I guess that many of the rooms are of the same layout so other rooms surely have the same problem.
On our first visit we stayed in one of the cottages which felt a lot nicer and and more up to date. They are also quite a bit cheaper.
Enough about the accommodation. One of the main reasons for going to Högbo is the food!
We enjoyed the "gourmet package" and it was all very good. A nice menu to choose from and also both a delicious cheese buffet and perhaps best of all; the dessert buffet. Simply fantastic!
The staff at Högbo is also very lovely, always very nice and helpful.
In all, Högbo is a nice place to spend some quality time. But go for the cottages rather than the hotel.

My partner took me here for my birthday as a surprise. I couldn't recommend this place high enough. We stayed in one of the cabins which was basic but very nice and clean. The grounds on which the Hotel is situated were so picturesque. The staff so friendly and helpful and the food to die for! I would recommend the pudding buffet, its all you can eat and I really enjoyed it! This is a fantastic place to get away and have a romantic weekend or to bring a whole family as plenty to do.

The hotel website promised sheep grazing - "the estate's own silent lawn mowers" - the reality was a noisy mechanical grass cutting machine outside our ground floor window at 7:30 am. And that just about summarised the experience for us. This hotel was like going back in years to our college halls of residence, and not the luxurious experience we were expecting. Specifics: old fashioned decor with two single beds pretending to be a double; bright yellow walls, bedspreads and furniture giving the impression of being trapped in a giant banana; vinyl - yes, vinyl - floors, grey metal doors; plain white tiled bathroom looking more like a hospital bathroom than a hotel one; no fridge or minibar; no individually controlled heating or air conditioning in room; no cable or satellite TV; the ironing board attached to the wall like a weird decorative feature; cheap looking soap dispenser (why? If for environmental reasons, then why the separate six mini bottles of shampoo etc.); the nasty cheap shower attachment. The public areas weren't much better with cheap looking furniture and quarry tiled floors reminding us of a student refectory. The restaurant was undergoing refurbishment, so we had breakfast looking at chipboard hoarding and listening to drills. They were quiet (wonder why?) the night we were there, and had limited staff covering the bar, reception and the restaurant. We ate in the bar (no English translation available of the bar menu) and had beef and potatoes - surprisingly good. However, our dinner plates had not been cleared from the bar 4 hours after we had finished!

It was probably as well that we had been woken by the grass cutter as breakfast service finished at 9:00 and checkout is by 10:00 - we had no problem with that as it happens!

Apart from the meal, other good points included free and quick internet access and the staff who, whilst not numerous, were friendly and extremely helpful. However, overall, the effect is institutional and certainly not luxurious. And at about £185 per night including a bar meal, we expected more.
