    Restaurant service are pretty bad, we booked the table and ordered the dinner, it takes almost an hour to get the main dishes, everyone else arrives late than us got third dishes earlier than us which make us upset.

    Location and fantastic views

    Nice spot to stay on your way to Stockholm)

    Room: there is no AC and not enough ventilation making it too hot during sun time. Open windows do not help in the evening as windows are facing west and dawning sunlight hits directly to the room. Restaurant: food and service quality does not correspond to the price level. Maybe you have to pay double price for having a dinner in the old castle, but in this case one should expect much better quality of food. Reception: we were refused to be checked in a little bit earlier than 3 p.m. We arrived 30 minutes earlier driving several hours and had to wait in the lobby. Outside: there is only a workout space, but no table-tennis or other sports. There is no access to the lake, despite of the pictures provided in the profile. The hotel is located very high uphill, if you want to swim in the lake, you have to go to the Gränna‘s public beach.

    Amazing lobby of the main building - it is an old castle with all associated decorations. Good breakfast with many options. Clean and convenient room with all needed stuff and enough room for a 1-2 nights stay. Parking is free and always available, you can park your car immediately in front of the room. Hotel invests into new infrastructure - there should be a fountain, sauna and some other outside activities. Lovely access to the lake with beach at Gränna town (you have to drive there 10 minutes).

    The building with the hotelrooms for the people with dogs were a bit old and worn down, but the rooms were large and nicely decorated.

    The main hotell building was beautiful, and the dining room with the breakfast was stunning with beautiful paintings and a beautifully decorated ceiling. The breakfast was very good and there was a beautiful view of the lake. It was right next to the old village of Rötle with the charming red houses and pretty gardens a pretty waterfall and an old mill. It was also just a few minutes with car from the pretty town of Gränna, and Brahehus slottsruin.

    Room while comfortable, a bit tired with peeling paint on ceiling and bathroom. More expensive than other hotels on our trip.

    Lovely setting with great lake views. A touch of a medieval feel about it. Free parking so ideal if driving. Just outside Granna & near Rottel waterfall. Nice dining room with small dinner menu. Fabulous sunset from dining room. Food was lovely. Lake view from bedroom, tea & coffee facilities and mini bar.

    It’s a nice hotel but it does feel a little dated. I was here about 8 years ago and I felt the same way then as I do now.

    Its location, with that cones a great view.

    Nice pitch stop and… what a view from the dinning room… stunning 🤩

    Only drawback was view directly from our bedroom, really minor as we had great sleep… main purpose… but while it is nice to see the lake, some improvement directly under the windows to hide the mess of the construction may hep. Likely this was fresch, so will improve with time. The highway is close by, convenient but could limit an easy walk around the nice area.. so access, clear direction could help… still we had very good sleep, no disturbance in the rooms all facing the lake… so all good, more improvement suggestions…. a great pitch stop between Goteborg and Stockholm. Last, 😅… really minor details, could improve the ventilation in dinning room…

    Enjoyed the time in the restaurant with great view on the lake. The food was very good. The breakfast perfect. So overall very nice stay and easy to park for electric vehicles.

    Slight disturbance from the room next door’s television early on the morning.

    We really enjoyed the breakfast as plenty of choice. We also enjoyed the shuffle board game near the bar area. All the staff were very courteous and friendly.

    More dog friendly seating at the breakfast/dinning area with views.

    Loved the views from the room overlooking the lake. It was dog friendly and they placed the bins close to the entrance of the section we stayed at. With bags (if you forgot) There is nothing worse than trying to find a bin after you picked up after your dog. The building and entrance way has a lot of character. Loved our stay (sadly only for 1 night) Breakfast had a nice selection of continental food and their own waffle station. There was also a really friendly gentleman at the night reception. We arrived just before midnight and he cheered us up after a long day of travelling. (Keep him)

    Super poor and not tasty breakfast, especially for a 4 star hotel. Beds are too soft, unfortunately.

    Amazing view, absolutely awesome location and castle experience! Note: if you want a castle experience, make sure you are booking the right room. It is not clear here on Booking. Our room was in a nearby house, we found it out at Check in. However due to super helpful and amazing staff we got upgraded to a castle room!

    The check-out was pretty early, at 10.30. We also didn't take the hotel breakfast as it was ending already at 9.30. Those times were a little early for us as we were on holiday.

    The location was spectacular and we all loved the cabin we stayed in. The double bed was very comfortable and the view from the cabin was so beautiful.
