We stayed here because Gothenburg was full due to the marathon and I am very happy we did, it is located by the river at the edge of the small town. A smooth check in from a helpful English speaking receptionist, I had a room with single bed on the third floor but the room had plenty of space and... More

this hotel oozes old-time charm and would probably be better visited during the summer, as it has a pretty location next to the river, and there is an outdoor pool, obviously not open in December, though. The room had a decent size, with two comfortable armchairs and a table, as well as the standard desk and nightstand tables, very comfortable... More

Fars Hatt is situated about 1 km from the commercial center of Kungälv, pretty location and nice exterior, next to the river and below the old castle. So far, so good. However, going inside you soon discover that the place is in urgent need of renovation. Our room door was very hard to open (someone had tried with a crowbar,... More

I was booked into this hotel by a colleague and was very pleasantly surprised. The hotel is in a great location overlooking the river and castle in the old part of a very picturesque town. It is very different from the typical Scandinavian style hotel. The staff were very friendly and service was excellent even though the restaurant and bar... More

I'm pretty sure prison cells are bigger then the room I was in. Little sliver of a bed on the wall with some type of pads rather then a mattress and the room smelled so bad of bleach (or worse) that it made me sick. shower and toilette are crammed in a 3x8 area wich was just a joke.

We really stayed here in july 2010, but that option wasnt available here. We stayed as a couple and had a friend with us this time, we stayed here before and were then several friends, and we all liked it very much. This hotel has a descent price for being about 15 minutes or so from Gothenburg. The restaurant and... More

Thank you for your positive feedback. The location as you say, is very appreciated by many guests. Kungalv is a cosy city and if you like to visit Gothenburg is it only 15 minutes away by car or expressbus that stop outside the hotel. We put a lot effort to offer a wide range of options at breakfast, serving both... More

I do NOT recomend this hotel. We got a non-smoking room but the room was stinking really bad. In the bathroom it was creeps in the shower. The room was not tidy and clean, just the opposite. The breakfast buffet was a big disappointment. Frozen bread and untasty food. Don't go there!!!!!
