Categories

Cleanliness
8.2
Generally acceptable — several guests describe rooms and cottages as 'rent og pænt', 'fräsch och nyrenoverad', but there are notes of 'sådär städat' and sticky floor in the breakfast room.
Service
9.3
Strongly positive — many mentions of welcoming, helpful and courteous staff ('Venligt, imødekommende', 'courteous staff', 'trevlig personal'). A few isolated unfriendly interactions reported, but overall service is a clear strength.
Location
9.7
Outstanding — repeatedly praised for views and position above Vättern, easy access to Gränna/Visingsö and scenic surroundings; 'fantastisk utsikt' mentioned many times.
Room Quality
7.5
Mixed — several guests love renovated cottages and views, but there are recurring issues: very small bathrooms, dated rooms in places, bunk beds instead of doubles, broken light bulbs and a broken TV remote.
Amenities
7.9
Mixed amenities — positives include free parking and EV charging; negatives include lack of AC in many rooms, missing minibar/mini-fridge, and at least one report of a booked sauna not functioning.
Value for Money
7
Some concern — a number of guests feel it isn't fully worth the price (mentions of being surprised by extra tip charge at check-in, and statements like 'Inte värt pengarna').
Food and Beverage
9
Generally very strong breakfast offerings praised across reviews ('Doskonała, bogata oferta śniadaniowa', 'Excellent buffet de petit déjeuner'), though a few complaints about restaurant presentation and items not being replenished.
Overall Experience
9.4
Overall positive guest experience — many guests plan to return and highlight the ambience, view and pleasant stays despite some practical issues (bathroom size, amenities).

Pros:

Ett fantastiskt läge med en utsikt som är oslagbar. Vi är mycket nöjda med bemötandet från personal i reception och i restaurang. Goda möjligheter att ladda elbil.

Roligt att ha bott på Gyllene Uttern.
Pros:

Utsikten från a la carte matsalen och Bistron. Inredningen i gamla matsalen, tavlorna och takmålningarna, är anslående. Frukosten var utmärkt!

Cons:

Att kötträtten, rådjur, inte var riktigt varmt och potatismoset måste värmas upp. Ingen sked följde med för uppläggning av moset till tallriken vare sig före eller efter uppvärmningen. Att ingen erbjöds smaka av vinet före upphällningen i glasen.

Saknade en broschyr om hotellets tillkomst och historia. Kanske finns det en sådan men den var slut efter turistsäsongen?
