Very quiet and peaceful place. Well appointed room. Breakfast verged on a simpler buffet type. Building is on the hill top and in the 1700s or 1800s served as Gotland’s archive. Lovely view of harbour from our bedroom. Well located just a 10-minute walk into the heart of Visby.

Nice and cosy small hotel, well situated ,short distance to everything in the old town. Unfortunately daily maintenance seems to be neglected -in our room safe did not work, hand shower also broken and some spotlights in the roof. No aircond in the room so can be pretty warm during summertime.

We thoroughly enjoyed this little manor house. Loved the floor heating in the bathroom and the beautiful ancient windows. Absolute best was their breakfast, by far the BEST breakfast I ever had at any hotel around the world. The only thing that was a bit unusual, we booked the deluxe room and were expecting a sitting area, but only got one chair and a stool at a tiny desk. It did not look like the picture n the internet. It only bugged me on the one day we had rain and hung out in the room for a bit. Walkable to town without being in the midst of party area at night. Quiet enough to sleep with the windows open. Loved this experience.

Booked the room becuse they advertised WiFi and Caboe TV and we really needed both . WiFI was horrible and cable TV didn’t even exist. Blaming myself for not checking reviews better beforehand because then I would have seen that already in 2021and 2022 hotel got bad reviews for just WiFi and cable . The girls that worked in the front desk was absolutely amazing and very sweet and helpful and helped us solve our issues the best they could being very creative. Cable TV doesn’t exist there even though they advertise it and WiFi seams to be a problem owners have no intention to solve . The hotel Should be very thankful for their amazing staff .

Inte fyrstjärnig standard, mer trestjärnig. Saknade utrymme att ”hänga i” kvällstid, finns en hylla med te/kaffepulver i källaren, ingen vattenkokare på rummet. Saknade även smart-TV för att kunna streama program och/eller filmer. Frukostmatsal i källaren utan fönster. Inget extra mysigt rum! Väldigt gullig personal!

Mycket bra läge , bra mörkegardiner , mjuka sängar, vi promenerade till flygplatsen tog 55 min. Det enda vi saknade var att dushtvålen inte var påfyllt. Frukosten var en av de bästa i smak vi har fått.
