Pros:

Fina rum. Även om en del kan vara väl små, vi vill gärna kunna sätta ner fötterna på var sin sida av sängen i ett dubbelrum.
(Vi fick byta)

Cons:

Stökigt utanför när vi var där vilket påverkade men det är knappast hotellets fel

Et opphold på dette hotellet anbefales på det sterkeste.
Pros:

Super beliggenhet i sentrum av byen. Nydelig og variert frokost.

Cons:

Litt mange trapper og ulike korridorer. Savnet litt et par ekstra silde-retter til frokost.

Fint hotell i Karlstad
Pros:

Beste frokosten! Flott beliggenhet. Var tidlig ute men rommet var klart allerede kl 13! Bishop Arms er et stort pluss. Veldig fin pub.

Cons:

For myke senger. Og det var to enkeltsenger plassert ved siden av hverandre og overmadrassene skled ut hele tiden. Sluket i badekaret var ikke tett så vannet rant ut under bading. Litt mange korridorer og lang vei fra resepsjon til rommet vi fikk.
