Reviews for Hotell Svanen

Review 1:Due to problems with our legs, both my husband and I must use an elevator rather than stairs. While it does have an elevator (Thank You!), every time we used it, I felt as though I could get "whip-lash" with our abrupt and jerky arrivals.

Review 2:Our room, which we shared with our two teenagers, was far larger than I had expected from the photos, which made it comfortable for all of us. The personnel were always friendly and helpful! We will gladly stay there again!

Review 3:My booking.com booking was not listed at the hotel. All rooms were taken. Only hostel (room with 6 bunk beds) available.

Review 4:After mess-up of the booking, I got a 6-bunk-bed hostel room for myself free of charge, including good and nutritious breakfast. Location for a traveller with bicycle excellent.

Review 5:A bit of a walk from city center but a lovely bike ride away and the hotel had bike rentals

Review 6:Very clean, for a shared bathroom experience, I couldn't have asked for better facilities.

Review 7:Very mean teeny weeny little twin room - no space for beside tables even! Very narrow kiddie sized beds. And a ridiculously tiny silly toilet. Sweden is world famous for design. What went wrong here?

Review 8:Clean fresh and new. Nice welcome from reception staff when we arrived.

Review 9:The WIFI is very unstable, which was sometimes annoying. The helpfulness of the staff dependent very on the employee. In addition, the flexibility in terms of the check out could be better.

Review 10:The Swanan is scenically surrounded by forests and lakes, and the staff is friendly.

Review 56:It was very clean and the staff were very nice.

Review 67:being able to wash laundry, beautiful surroundings-also good value for money

Review 68:The two extra beds were not made ready. If you arrive the city late at night and being tired, it is a torture for someone to make up the bed. The other thing is that you should be at the hotel before 21:00, because there is no one at the reception after nine...
