Hotel Jämteborg

The wonderful welcoming staff elevated what might otherwise be an unremarkable hotel to a memorable one. While on the bus to Ostersund just before 8 pm, they phoned me to say that their dinner buffet finished at 8 and asked if I'd like them to put some food aside for me. I'd totally forgotten that a dinner buffet was included in my room rate. Other hotels might simply have said tough luck if I arrived after they stopped serving, but instead I was given dinner on arrival at 8.30. Not the finest meal I had in Sweden but still a nice touch. The lovely receptionist (whose English was flawless, and whose name I didn't catch) recommended a local beer to enjoy with dinner - the most reasonably priced beer I had in Sweden (though still expensive by UK standards). She showed me the fridge where my packed breakfast would be found in the morning (as I was leaving before they officially started serving breakfast). The William Morris wallpaper in the bar/restaurant area was a nice change from Scandi-minimalist design! Excellent location handy for both the bus and train stations in Ostersund. Disliked · Bathroom was a little basic - wetroom with a shower curtain. A chipped tile next to the plughole detracted from the feel. I've stayed in hotels with more modern/luxurious bathrooms. I suspect it had not been redecorated/refurbished as recently as the bedroom. A takeaway breakfast was provided but it was not the most generous: a small carton of orange juice, hardboiled egg. a yoghurt (but no spoon) and a small sandwich of seeded/fruit bread with cheese.

Hotel met twee locaties. Goed bereikbaar en voor de automobilist parkeren op eigen terrrein. Maar ook op 6 min lopen van trein en bus. Ligt hartje centrum Prima kamer, ruim, goed bed, stil. Ons ontbijt werd in verband vroege vertrek klaar gezet als pakket.
