We were recommended this hotel by a friend who lives in Kalmar and so we had high hopes for a nice stay. We had tried to book a room in the main hotel but unfortunately, it was booked out, so we opted for their budget accommodation in a building across the road. The photos looked nice. the main building was quite beautiful and we were greeted at reception with smiles and enthusiasm. Ebba, one of the staff gave us a brief and interesting history of the building and its original owners, so we felt like we were off to a good start. Our room was neat at first glance but noticed that it was sparsely decorated and had no bedside tables, which we thought was a little odd. The bed seemed nice and comfortable which made us happy. After returning from dinner that evening we found a number of issues in the bathroom that seemed un-exceptable. The shower was extremely basic. The shower curtain was old, there was soap build up on the shower window and door, the shower soap was empty, the basin was loose and the glass shelf above it was also loose and rested on on angle. You had to put the glasses to the back of the shelf to prevent them from sliding off. We also found nuts of some kind on the floor under one of the chairs. What came next was greatly disappointing. Upon pulling back the doona on the bed we saw 3 silverfish skuttle across the sheet. Although we had a laugh, it was certainly not what we expected. Aside from that, we slept ok and the next morning we very much enjoyed the breakfast they had on offer. It was all very fresh and all very tasty. I went to reception as a coutesy to let them know the issues we had experienced and although the young girl wrote down what I told her explaining she would let management know, we were not offered an apology. That surprised me considering we are both seasoned travellers and have come to expect better. So when we arrived home I wrote a polite email to the manager detailing our stay and that although we recognise that sometimes cleaners etc can overlook things and just wanted to let them know of our disappointment. We received no reply. So I wrote to their facebook page and inquired if we would get a reply regarding our email. The post was read but again we received no reply. Sorry , but for an establishment that seems to have most of the boxes ticked in a stunning setting and friendly helpful staff, you do not win any points for your inability to show respect to a customer who thought bringing these issues to your attention would help. Someone needs to pull their socks up.

Mixed Feelings

We slept well in comfortable beds and the overall cleanness was ok. Prepare for people walking by to have a peek if you are living on the ground floor. We liked the ambiance of the hotel and had a late night drink in the lobby. We parked our car around the corner which worked fine. Staff was very lovely and helpful. The hotel needs some renovations - our bathroom was sprung from the 80’s, the TV had no international chains or services, the wifi was weak and the hotel doesn’t use key cards. However, the courtyard was very cute and the breakfast superb and we were very happy with our stay.

Pretty hotel with great breakfast

Excellent service and atmosphere at this little gem in Kalmar. 
Beautiful outdoor restaurant at  their courtyard. 
All tables were well separated according to Covid guidelines. 
We are definitely returning for more food and drinks with the hope they will continue to deliver. 


Great

We spent a night in this nice hotel close to the castle of Kalmar after a road trip through Öland for Easter.  The superior room is nice, clean and comfortable.  The TV is outdated but we don't watch TV, so that's fine.  Wifi is free.  Beds are little soft for us and anyway comfortable.  The bathroom was obviously renovated a few months ago.  Good taste, good equipment and practical shower.
A very good experience for us.
There is a restaurant, serving food cooked and/or baked on place.  The diner was both copious and fine dining, we enjoyed the menu, in an airy dining room on the other side of the patio.  First time we get real "home made" pancakes for breakfast in our 3 nights road trip. :). The rest of the breakfast buffet is well organized and very nice.
The central heating system, obviously upgraded in the recent months was showing needs for venting the air inside the radiators and probably more water pressure, we had dripping sound during our stay, it was not a big deal for us, but I suspect it can be deal breaker for others.
Parking on the street besides the hotel entrance was free, probably due to weekend.

Good comfort and good night

Perfect location a couple of hundred meters walk from the castle and restaurants and five minutes walk from the center. Very good breakfast! Elegant rooms and interior in the main building, more simple but good rooms in the budget accommodation building.

Perfect location and good breakfast!

The location of the hotel was very convenient as we travelled from Stockholm to Kalmar to see the Light and Sound Show of Vincent Van Gogh's life and arts in Kalmar Castle. The hotel is walking distance from the train station. And very near the Castle as well as centre of Kalmar where there are stores, restaurants and cafes.
The hotel is in a quiet area and is nicely interiored, with comfortable beds. The sumptuous breakfast included everything included freshly baked bread. 
The service is also very good. I can highly recommend Slotthotelet.

Very typical Swedish hotel located near the Castle of Kalmar

We stayed her for the second time and experienced again a clean room and friendly staff. Parking is very limited, but we were lucky that a 75 SEK/day pay space was available. Cosy warm evening in the courtyard with lot of other travellers. Excellent breakfast and free simple ok evening meal this friday evening.

Cosy and friendly stay

The hotel buildings are very charming. We got a room in the annex though. Very basic and small, but okay and clean with a lovely garden outside the window. The breakfast is great.
The hotel is situated in the original old part of town. Very charming and very close to the water, a park, the art museum, the castle and a big green area and possibilities for a swim. Lots of local people doing workout, picnics, swimming ie.
Very nice area.

Great location close to the castle.

I was a little nervous because of the mixed reviews, but overall I was very happy. We got a room in the main building rather than the annexes, so this probably helped. I see some people refer to having food in the evening but that is not so in the summer. Our room was very good (a little tight for twin beds) and was protected by a knight in armor in the hall. Good breakfast (a bit busy), lots of choices. Great location of course.

Good place to stay near the castle

This is a charming hotel located on a beautiful tree lined street that leads to Kalmar Castle, no more than a 10 minute walk away.  It is also right on the edge of Kalmar's Old Town.  We enjoyed the suite we had reserved, very comfortable.

One downside is the parking.  The hotel has a few spaces for hotel guests but they are very limited.  Street parking close to the hotel is limited to 3 hours, to find 24 hour street parking you need to walk at least 2 blocks away and hope for an empty space.
