Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay overall at this hotel. The location was fantastic, with easy access to northern Bohuslän and the charming towns of Fjällbacka and Grebbestad. The rooms were bright and comfortable, but a bit cluttered and facing a noisy road. The staff was lovely and very accommodating, adding to the overall positive experience. However, the dining options could use some improvement, and the breakfast was just okay, perhaps affected by the current situation.
I had a lovely stay at this hotel, which boasts a charming atmosphere and interesting decor that really gives it character. The staff were friendly and made me feel welcomed, and the location is great, being close to Fjällbacka and Grebbestad. However, I did find the dining options quite limited, and the rooms, while comfortable, could use some updates. Overall, it's a good value for money.

The hotel has a nice location, great for exploring the nearby rock engravings and charming areas like Fjällbacka and Grebbestad. The rooms were comfortable, but they did have a musty smell and faced a noisy road, which made things less than ideal. The staff was friendly and offered a nice welcome drink, but the dining options were a bit lacking in quality. Overall, it's decent for the price, but not perfect.
