  Un hotel muy particular

  Estuve alojada en este hotel durante 3 semanas. Iba a un curso de capacitación y este lugar fue mi hogar durante ese tiempo. El Hotel Bilan es una antigua carcel que fue reciclada y ahora funciona como un pequeño hotel en una pequeña ciudad. El Hotel es cómodo, limpio y con un servicio muy agradable y son, para los estandares suecos, simpáticos y familaires. Las habitaciones son cómodas, de un tamaño estandar, con una prolija decoración. Sobre el restaurante debo decir que la comida es deliciosa, pero mi sugerencia sería que variaran un poco más la oferta del buffet, ya que comer durante tres semanas más o menos lo mismo se puede hacer muy fastidioso. Además, les recomendaría tener variaciones según gustos, la oferta para vegetarianos es muy escasa por ejemplo. Otro punto algo flojo fue que durante algunas noches fallaba Internet. Les recomendaría reconsiderar el servicio. En resumen, un lugar muy especial, cálido a pesar de su pasado, y con una relación calidad-precio muy buena para un hotel en Europa.

  MUY ACOGEDOR

  Es pequeño pero es una maravilla de hotel. Bien cuidado. Habitaciones grandes. Baño muy nuevo. Desayuno normal . En general todo estaba bien cuidado, hasta la moqueta estaba limpia y en buen estado. Si regreso volveré .

  Very nice, personable hotel in downtown Karlstad - perfect for business trips!

  Clarion Hotel Bilan is housed in the former city jail, and the rooms, corridors and stairwells all feature pictures related to that theme - old protocols and letters, drawings and such. There's apparently even a prison museum downstairs, something I missed completely. I had a room on the top floor, which was of decent size and perfectly clean. It was well lit, bed was comfortable and bathroom was functional. Hair dryer and iron was provided, and there were wall sockets right next to the bed. One thing that sets this hotel apart from others I've stayed at is that not only is breakfast included in the room rate - but so is afternoon "fika" as well as buffet dinner. This is perfect when travelling for business purposes - especially during the autumn/winter season - but might not be so good for personal travel, if you plan to go out for dinner as a couple or something (since the included meals likely increases the room price). The provided food was nice, though the dining room was small:ish, meaning you'll likely end up sharing a table with another party. All the staff I encountered - both in reception, in housekeeping and in the dining room - were extremely friendly and helpful. Apart from the meal, parking behind the hotel is free (stop by reception and they'll guide you to the hotel's spots) and good WiFi was available throughout the hotel. There's a small gym and a sauna available for guests as well. All in all, this was a very nice stay. I'll definitely stay here if/when I return to Karlstad!

  Highly recommended

  We stayed on night on the way north for skiing. Very nice and welcoming staff. Very good price which includes full breakfast and dinner in the evening. The dinner included soup, various sallads, main course, fruit, coffe/tea. Very nice room and general interior in the hotel - which used to be a prison until late 1960s so there are some artifacts around this history. Highly recommended!

  Former prison

  Clarion collection Bilan is a former prison sourounded by prison walls. They have kept some of the prison cells that you can visit and there is a small museum in the celler. Great location a few hundered meters from the central station and shopping streets. Staff is very friendly and attentive. As in all Clarion collection hotels in Scandinavia they offer an afternoon snack and free dinner, including a small salad and a hot meal. Popular with guests and tasty.
