Find Hotels in Oxelosund

I stayed two nights at the Clarion Collection Hotel Kompaniet. I was very confused. Was this hotel a Nordic Choice hotel? Was it a Strawberry hotel? Was it a Clarion? Was it a Choice? It used to be Nordic Choice, which has or had an affiliate with Choice internationally. So, in theory, I should have status or points because of Choice. But Nordic Choice is now Strawberry. Yet, the hotel is still branded Clarion. Clarion is a Choice brand. At the same time, it is also called Hotel Kompaniet, which makes it sound more of a boutique or independent hotel. This confusion over brand identity and marketing was apparent and evident across the hotel. While the lobby looks renovated and has a more upscale, boutique feel to it, the bar and restaurant feel like a low-end buffet. Because the breakfast and dinner is free, guests rush the buffet just like a cruise ship or cheap all-inclusive resort. Some of the guests, especially kids and sports teams, were like pigs and going back to the buffet two or three times. The food is mostly low-quality. Worse than airport lounge food. More like school or hospital cafeteria food. Especially at breakfast. The scrambled eggs were watery. The juices were watered down. I did not see any fresh berries. At night, dinner was barbecue chicken, a rice or some sort of grain, and a couple salads. I did not see any desserts. Staff worked hard and were very polite. Most or all of them spoke English. But they were overwhelmed. It was like a hotel factory with all the guests at the buffet. The front desk clerks are also the bartenders, which causes a line at the front desk when they are working at the bar or a line at the bar when they are working the front desk. While the included breakfast and dinner is appreciated, I think the hotel would be better off having a menu with table service. Guests would eat less food, costs would probably be reduced, and the quality might be better. There has to be a better and more civilized way to do the restaurant. It In terms of my room. It was on the fourth floor and had a nice view of the grounds looking toward the river. While the lobby and even the hallway to my room looked renovated or refreshed, the room itself felt a little older. Some of the furniture was scratched, damaged, or just worn. There were zero working USB outlets. I said ”working” because there was one USB outlet on the side of the desk. However, it did not work. In the year 2023 you expect multiple accessible USB outlets to charge your devices. The three or four electrical outlets were in good locations but the design was poor. You could not easy use an international power adaptor due to the placement of the outlets. You also could not plug-in power adaptors for an Apple computer because of the design. This is just unacceptable. How did the designer of the rooms not test the design? Missing from my room were a telephone. Who am I supposed to call if there is an emergency? Why is there no telephone? There also was not an a

I stayed a night during my road trip. My plan was to find a comfortable hotel with good breakfast and parking facilities. Scandic Store Hotelier met all my criteria. The room was nice and recently renovated. The parking (cost 100 SEK) was just behind the hotel with direct access to the building. The parking lot even had charging stations for electric vehicles, which I appreciated a lot. If I had to find something negative, it would be the lack of proper air condition in the room. It was an extremely hot day and the sun had blasted the room to extreme temperatures when I arrived. Luckily I was able to vent the room by opening the window at night, when it was a bit cooler. Otherwise I had a good stay.

It was our second time visiting this Spa hotel. This time on a g value Let's Deal offer, including room, Spa, dinner and breakfast. + The stafff really is quite attentive, most welcoming and extremely hospitable, all from reception, to restaurant and Spa. All smiles and what feels like a genuine wan to make your stay yhe best possible. The ambience in the restaurant, spa and lobby area is relaxing and it is very nicely decorated with tons of lovely lamps, wallpaper, furniture and flower settings (shout out to the great florist). A great, proper fully equiped, gym availlable 05-24 (must be open to non-hotel guests as it has several rooms and loads of machines, plus a swimming pool) Food is very good. Rooms spacious and again nicely decorated. The hotel place is very clean. - (not a complaint, but the only area I could have wished to be better). The Spa, while very relaxing, could do with a joint sauna. There is the nice lounge area and then two smaller warm pools (or if they are bigger Jacuzzis). Then there is a nice little corner with fish spa, that you can pay for, as well as treatment rooms with pay for treatments. I however would have liked a second area/thing to do. A dry sauna, steam room, wood fired relax, cold pool, sun room or just something along thise lines. I would also loved to have seen a bigger snack menu. We had the a platter, but it is the only option on the menu besides crisps and nuts or fruit.

Very convenient, right next to the airport, you can see the hotel as soon as you leave the airport. The hotel looks great, not a casual hostel. The hall is very large, it is carefully decorated, and there is a stove, in short, it has a Nordic atmosphere. The room is an ordinary standard room with a shared bathroom. It is suitable for people who transfer or catch a plane to stay for a short night.
