Die Lage des Hotels war toll! Es war schön ausgestattet in den Gemeinschaftsbereichen, Rezeption, Spielzimmer für die Kinder usw.! Das Frühstück war lecker und sehr vielseitig! Besonders loben möchten wir das überaus freundliche Personal! Sehr hilfsbereit und nett!
Die Zimmer waren etwas klein und eng. Besonders das 4-er Zimmer mit dem Minibad (Waschbecken in der Dusche) war etwas ernüchternd!

Läget nära Astrid Lindgrens värld.
Väldigt lyhört. Rummets golv låg under mark så det var mörkt och fuktigt. Inte mycket att välja på i restaurangen. Absolut inte fyrstjärnigt.

The breakfast select was grate, more than i’m used to
Breakfast: The scramble eggs tasted bad and were obviously mixed with too much liquid. The dish and the other food like my bread was soaking wet from liquid from the eggs.
Fruit’s missing all of my three mornings that I stayed there. Not filled up when finished.

Far to expensive. The rooms were not prepared for our stay. Tired people in the reseption. We made the stay as good as possible.
Ugly decoration, bad tea and the service did not mach the prise. Had to clean breakfast table and get cutlery.
4.0
Breakfast buffet was the best part of the stay.
Reception just gave us the key and a survey on arrival with no more information about the hotel. Hotel charge extra for using the pool area, not included in the stay. Noicy area outside the room and you can hear other people walking around on the floor above. Food was cheap and ordinary and the service was a direkt reflexion of this.

The hotel was clean
The hotel was run down and the two women we dealt with at customer service had the opportunity to show kindness and courtesy to us in a difficult situation, but chose not to. Instead, they avoided us for the remainder of our stay (ducking behind doors when they saw us) and made us feel uncomfortable for the remainder. They refused to provide a bagged breakfast for our early departure which was offered when we checked in and we paid for. That situation aside, the hotel is way past its prime and our room had more of a dorm or hostel quality than we expected for a 4 star hotel. The “playroom” consists of a couple books with broken spines, toy’s with broken and missing pieces, and a Fußball table with a crumpled up piece of paper as the ball. For this price, look somewhere else.

Breakfast- very well.
Nice room and beds.
The AC made irritating noice sometimes so we had to turn it off at night.
They couldnt find our booking. Somehow someone had already checked us in, no idea who so we stood there a little terrified we had nowhere to sleep late at night.
9.0
Near the Astrid Lindgrens world. If you are used to Scandic etc. hotels, this is different, but very nice with antique furniture and old-style wallpaper with flowers and so on - the hotel has got character. The breakfast was good, also gluten-free options. Excellent beds and pillows.

Room was nice but everything on the location was a little dirty. There where pringle flakes under our bed ( not from us). Tables and chairs in restaurant were always a bit filthy, I think they just needed more staff or at least teach them to clean better
6.0
The size of the room.
That there was two bathrooms.
Suspect stain on one of the beds pillows.
We expected more from the breakfast and dinner buffè. Few choices and not that tasty either.
One of us got food poisoning.
7.0
Nice and large room, quiet location. Friendly staff at the reception and service. Close to the campsite with washing machine and dryer (chip card at reception). Free parking spaces!
Slight chaos at the breakfast buffet (too many people, despite the time management). The service staff tried hard, but was still a bit overwhelmed. Many families with very young children, but no wonder, because everyone wants to go to Astrid Lindgren's World ;). Unfortunately, the room price is above average :(

Extreme noisy room (room 4)! We heard our neughbours snoring, flushing the toilet, showering, speaking as if they were in the room. Couldn‘t sleep the whole night! Army of silver fishes in the bathroom! Very tiny room as well for the money: two adults + kid on maybe 12 square meters for 185€! We requested and Hafen to pay even some extra money for a Kinder-bed, but just got the classical sofa prepared… no Kinder-bed was finally there. Very unpleasent stay…

Breakfast was plentiful and varied. Good coffee on tap.
Reception was warm and friendly.
We requested additional heating after entering our room, which was addressed immediately.
The evening dinner choice was One, a Pizza. Not acceptable as the available choices in Vimmerby were limited due to general Covid restrictions.

very nice hotel, lovely location and the they have a fantastic kids pool, the kids loved it and we had a blast. the most exceptional was the staff, extremely polite and nice people :)
