8.2/10 Very Good! (268 reviews)
Our room was quiet and comfortable with a beautiful view of the water. The hotel was easily accessible by bus and it was a quick trip from the ferry terminal. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. It was a lovely place to stay and we would recommend it.

8.8/10 Excellent! (946 reviews)
Such a lovely hotel with everything needed for a very comfortable stay. Very friendly staff team. Central location and a plentiful breakfast. The complimentary Fika and evening meal is a big bonus. We’ve stayed twice now and wouldn’t choose anywhere else in Stavengar.
