Unique property with such a warm welcome. The host went out of her way to organise food and a taxi for us in the morning - even though the taxi office was closed. The freshly baked (still warm) bread at breakfast was outstanding. Good WiFi.

The most friendly and warm staff at the reception. The room is basic but clean and comfortable. The breakfast is mostly organic. Very fresh and delicious. The restaurant is exceptional! All dishes made from the organic food grown in their own garden. Amazing food for fair prices. Book a table in advance!

Great breakfast and we liked the style of the place. Staff were really friendly. A great base to have a day's hike in the nearby Ecopark. Sadly for us we didn't see any live elk, but we had a nice time anyway.

Great accomodation, very reccomended. Arrived by car : there is a private garage in front of the Hotel with a specific tariff for hotel guests; there is also a public open-air parking in the nearby which is cheaper (I used EasyPark app to pay). Perfect room and private bathroom. Great buffet at breakfast, and also the dinner (included in the room price) was great.

The Lars Lerin art gallery has beautiful paintings of Swedish landscapes by him. Boat trips from Innre Hamn (Inner Harbour) take you on trips out to islands and around town on the river for the price of a bus fare. Only in the summer months though. Walk along the river for beautiful views, see the old church, town hall etc. Plenty of cafes and restaurants especially around the town square. Have a coffee on the Stadshotell roof terrace with lovely views across the river.

Kristinehamn has an interesting history going back to the mid 1500ers. So a meander around the historic centre of town is recommended. Defo a visit to Picasso's Sculpture! 👍 👍 and Kristinehamn Konstmuseum 👍. We only stayed 2 nights. Plenty more to do if you're in to nature, like boattrips, canoeing, nature walks. For those with interest for more historic facts I'm sure the History museum, Kristinehamn Historiska is worth a visit.

Nice little town, much more pleasant when the weather is good. It has a fair amount of facilities such as choice of food shops: Ica, Hemkop and maybe a few more. There are cafe's and restaurants, one of the favourites are Kanyans Thai restaurant and cafe. They do serve nice cakes and buns with coffee etc. It is pretty stress free driving in the area and some hidden gems in the countryside: forest area and around the beaches of Varnern: Vita Sannar. The lake Orsjon is very tranquil and pleasant for children and families alike.

Karlstad is the biggest little city in Sweden and a joy to visit. What other city with <100,000 population even has its own opera house and cathedral? The lakeside setting where Klarälven meets Lake Vänern is gorgeous. There's lots to see and do within the city, even as it is very human-sized and walkable.
