Book Ekestad hotels

The good: best breakfast at any stay ever, real Canadian maple syrup, real quality bacon, super high quality food. The view and surroundings were amazing. Can't comment on the spa as we didn't use it. The bad: I got a splinter in my foot from the floor in the room, staff didn't seem to care. Too many lights in bedroom you couldn't turn off or cover. Thermostat didn't seem to function properly at all and lit up when the lights went off (and it's next to the bed). Outdoor light always on and can't be turned off. No comfortable chairs or couch, and the kitchen chairs are rippled hard wood, like a ruffled potato chip and as uncomfortable as you would imagine. There was a kitchen, but no dishes or supplies and the front desk wouldn't provide us with anything, so don't expect to be able to use anything other than the microwave and the mini fridge. There is a washer/dryer which can be seen in the pictures, but apparently you aren't allowed to use it. The units are actually some sort of timeshare or they have owners, which is why you can't use the extra stuff shown, which was confusing and disappointing. The light switches are a disaster, they are all over the place and totally random in how they work, which will turn on nothing or everything, and they light up in the dark. The towels were so rough, like they have never been replaced/refreshed. We were looking forward to this place the most in our vacation and it ended up being the worst, we are glad we only booked one night.

Great stay

Silent, clean room, comfortable bed.

Good hotel in the heart of Kristianstafd.

This is a pub. You can't arrive or check in early because they aren't open, but it's not a problem once you're checked in. There’s no kettle in the room but the breakfast is good and the rooms are clean and comfortable. The location is excellent opposite the station and close to bus station and town centre.
