  disappointed

  The room was quite ok Expected a bigger room for 2000Sek/night but was clean and the beds are very good. Food in the restaurant in the evening good. The breakfast however is bad. Bad coffee, no fruits, just some bread ans cheece and ham. The scrambles eggs still had eggshell in it and where very tasteless. Breakfast was very disappointing. Very clear that the restaurant doesnt provide the breakfast. Also is customer friendly something that could be taught. All and all, hotel 3 stars, and restaurant 4 stars with the sidenote that lunch was very average. The waiting staff where few hance their rudness and haste. This hotell lives on their former reputation, and needs some upgrades especially with regards to smiling a bit more and making guest feel at home, not scaring them away.

  Good stay, helpful front desk

  Overall I enjoyed my stay at the Hotel Skansen. I think the hotel is conveniently located, offers good access to a lot of restaurants and attractions, and is near the water. I would suggest booking a suite as the other rooms are quite small (very Swedish style hotel rooms). We looked at two rooms prior to upgrading to a suite for additional space, the front desk staff was especially accommodating and kind during my request for a new room. We had spa access but only took advantage of the space once for an hour during our stay. Due to coronavirus policies we had to book a time at the spa, this was convenient because there were not many other people at the spa. That said, I did not think the spa facilities were clean to begin with. The gym at the hotel is actually a proper gym facility located 2-3 minutes walk from the hotel. Speaking to the restaurant, I had a good dinner the first evening of our stay. This was overshadowed by actions of the (presumably) kitchen manager the next day at breakfast. In the breakfast area there was a selection of disinfectants, hand sanitizers, and gloves guests and staff could use. I was waiting for a roll when the manager was refilling the bread basket, I observed he started using a set of tongs, then switched to using bare hands, touching every single piece of bread, moments after touching the lid handles on the hot items. I want to clarify I would never find this behavior acceptable under any circumstance, let alone when coronavirus is a major global issue. When I asked the manager why he wasnt wearing gloves his reply was, because I work here. Suffice to say I did not feel safe or comfortable returning to the breakfast or restaurant after this interaction. Again, overall a good stay at the Hotel Skansen. My suggestion to management would be to emphasize the importance of sanitary practices throughout the hotel and even if you do not believe exposure risks exist, send a signal to guests that you care and take the necessary precautions.

  Convenient location, older facilities

  We booked this hotel last minute and enjoyed our stay at the hotel. It was on the expensive side but we upgraded to a superior room. It is located conveniently when you just cross the bridge from Kalmar, Borgholm, beaches and Långe Jan. So easy to get everywhere! The hotel was packed to capacity so we did feel a bit worried with the corona virus pandemic. However they took great precautions. They had two separate breakfast buffets and had plenty of staff navigating people. Even if a lot of the guests didn't stick to rules, it was still a great job done from the hotel. side. I would recommend staying here if you want to explore the island and want a good place to stay, more so then to stay at the hotel for exploring the hotel.

  Good - but not at this price point

  I have mixed feelings about this place. I actually think that its a pretty good mid-range property with a somewhat scenic location. We have stayed in a suite before and this time we had a higher category standard room. The room was in a good condition and well-cleaned. We didnt experience any issues. However, the whole stay, breakfast offering etc just felt a bit too much budget. This room should have cost perhaps 1100-1300 SEK and not the 2000 SEK it regularly retails for, even off-peak. I just feel that their pricing is way off considering the quality on offer and the competition. This wont keep me from returning when Im in the area though, I just feel that its poor bang for the buck.

  Buen hotel

  Estuvimos una noche alojados aquí, en agosto. La verdad es que el hotel está muy bien. Cumple con las medidas del COVID. La piscina está bien y nuestra habitación estaba muy limpia. Además, no sé si es que nos dieron una habitación adaptada pero la cama se subía y se bajaba, muy divertido. El desayuno estuvo muy bien y el personal es amable. Mi único inconveniente es que el spa era de pago, ya podían tener algún detalle con los clientes
