Although it is supposed to be "central", it does requires from a quarter to twenty minutes walk to reach the very central part of town. Still, of course, it is not in the outskirts.||The hotel is spacious and has plenty of rooms to offer in different wings. The reception is welcoming and the staff professional and friendly.||||The room I had was perfect size, with all the needed essentials. A good desk, an armchair, space for jackets, the bag. From what I remember the wardrobe was very essential and didn't have much of shelves. I suppose they do not expect people to stay too long.||||The bathroom was of a decent size, with good space and surfaces and all I needed for a shower, including an hair dryer.||The bed was comfortable, but the main problem was that the room lacked AC. The first night I didn't realize that, as I did hear some "mechanical ventilation" in the room (which turned out to be the bathroom one only) and it got warm very quickly. Luckily the windows can be open, but it makes the temperature very uneven and maybe in the coldest nights it is not the best solution.||It was also quite disturbing with the door for the corridor quite close to my room, slamming heavily.||||The breakfast was the high point - I could spot a broad selection of food, although more nordic oriented. I would have appreciated a touch of organic food, if not local, more interesting tea and nicer juices. They seem very industrial and some lack taste. ||The bread was instead fresh and genuine. ||It could be quite crowded during breakfast time, but not an impossible situation to solve.||||I noticed though that my room and the area around the elevantors, felt a bit outdated, torn. My room was definitely very nicely cleaned (although it didn't get clean during my stay) but it was very standard in the quality of the materials and the appearance.||||Alltogether a perfectly ok stay. The price was not too high, but definitely not on the cheapest side either, but I think reasonable for the location and...
Read moreFunctional You can’t judge a book by its covers and the standard room of this hotel by its toiletpaper. The toilet paper is so bad (cheap) that I open my review with it. Although it is functional, just like the standard room.
The room and the bathroom are not too big, but functional. Two windows open completely and with the warm day we had we were glad we could get the nights’ cool breeze in. With temperatures rising this hotel is not prepared without any airco in the standard room, not even with a top down cooling.
The walk to the city center is not too far, so the hotel is functionally close enough.
Our car was right around the corner on a parking place. There is also a garage underneath, but that is really small, and I was suggested to park outside.
The personnel is really lovely and helpful and down the stairs everything looks a lot better than on the fourth floor.
Breakfast was not bad at all. More than functional actually, although the coffee could be better, even though it came out of a WFM machine. Could be worse rather, so functional is maybe also for the coffee the best...
Read moreDon’t stay here if you actually want to sleep . When I booked the hotel I asked for a quiet room as I have sleep problems . When I arrived at the hotel to check in I made the same request. I was told if I wanted a quiet room I had to pay more money . Ok I could have paid more money then but at the same time I had booked many months in advance so if I could not have a quiet room they could have told me so I could book somewhere else . I decided to take the room I was allocated as I thought how bad can it be and I did not want to cause a problem . It was bad ! Directly on the first floor by a busy road with no noise isolation at all .Most noisy hotel room I have ever stayed in . What’s the point of having a special requests space in the booking and then not caring about the request . Never coming back here . There are much better Strawberry hotels in Linköping. Don’t...
