Häftigt och trevligt hotell

Hotellet är väldigt spännande och annorlunda. Det finns många sällskapsrummen, både inomhus och utomhus. Rummen är häftiga och snygga med väldigt bra sängar. Hotellägaren Anders är väldigt trevlig och serviceinriktad. Frukosten var bra. Vi kan verkligen rekommendera detta häftiga hotell som är inrymt i en gammal militär fästning från mitten av 1800-talet!

Sjovt at bo i en nedlagt fæstning g, og hotellet er beliggende i den smukkeste natur. Men alt interiør er meget 90’er agtigt, og det føles som om der ikke er lavet om siden. Det trænger til en opdateret “styling” med blødere materialer og måske bambus/bast lamper ( jeg går meget om i indretning☺️) Morgen og aften maden levede IKKE om til forventningerne, meget inspirerende og ikke lokal og økologisk! Men personalet var meget venligt og der var en god steming.

Spesielt sted med variabel service og mat

3 netter i forbindelse med sommerferie. Rommet var ok, spesiell løsning gitt stedets historie. Mye sand på gulvet noen steder. Maten relativt ordinær, men bra frokost med gode rundstykker. Service i restauranten dessverre preget av mange unge med liten erfaring fra yrket.

Nedgånget och tråkigt

Mycket nedgånget med tråkig vandrarhemskänsla trots prisklass i linje med Wisby hotell, Strand eller enklare rum på Alma. Ingen ordentlig mörkläggning av rummen, mycket lyhört och dåligt städat. Varning! Tar ej Amex

Så rofyllt och behagligt. Tydligen har det hällregnat, åskat och blåst kraftigt under natten men i valven sover man som en stock ändå, inget ljud trängde in. Bra frukost och överlag mycket bra personal.

Varmt och välkomnande!

Villa Alma är fantastiskt, längst ner i Almedalen, precis vid vattnet. Ljusa fina rum, härliga färger, mjuka sköna sängar. En av de bättre frukostar jag ätit på hotell. Fick byta rum efter första natten pga väldigt kallt mot havet, men det ordnades på nolltid.

Så mysigt hotell i en helt unik miljö! Trevlig och personlig service och inredningen både inne och ute var supersnygg! Det enda som var lite synd var att de inte hade en restaurang som var öppen off-season men vi är väldigt nöjda ändå!

Vår vistelse på fästet

Väldigt tillmötesgående personal som tog emot oss på hotellet . Rummet var modernt och bekvämt . Maten var god men utan finess . Restaurangen skulle vinna på att serveringspersonalen skulle vara mer uppmärksamma på sina gäster .

Härligt och bekvämt boende i historisk miljö

Fårösunds Fästning är ett härligt boende med väldigt speciell historia. Att bekvämt bo i fint inredda rum som tidigare varit kaserner och valv är speciellt och lite spännade. Men allt är mycket bra, snyggt och bekvämt. Dessutom är maten av hög klass från frukost till en otroligt bra kvällsmeny. Kan varmt rekommendera.

Trendigt hotell med mer potential

Läckert, trendigt hotell med bra läge. Saknade badmöjlighet i havet utanför hotellet. Lite mer engagemang för att hålla dekorationsplantor runt hotellet fräscha och levande och smådetaljer i rummen i bra och fungerande skick, såsom lampor etc, skulle vara önskvärt. Restaurangen si så där - mer engagemang skulle behövas både vad gäller kvaliteten på maten som arbetsledning av personalen.
