Historic building. Nice older but good room with double doors, water cooker, new private bathroom. For me the bed was comfortable. Good continental buffet breakfast. Very friendly and helpful host who gave me information about the Astrid Lindgren movie "Madicken/Madita" which was partly made there. Possiblity to have a great daily lunch in the restaurant which I tested another stay before and which gave a feeling of this movie.

It was my second stay there and we enjoyed the atmosphere. They made a lot of renovation the last time so the walls outside are looking real pretty and bride now. In addition partly new bathrooms and TV. Our bedrooms were both comfortable. Quiet neighborhood and surrounding.

I loved the old buidling, with creaky woodden floors, breakfast and lunch area super nice in 19th century style. very good food for breakfast, quality cheese and meat products. and I loved the old style. made a lot of pictures. the room was rather just standard. but thats what i asked for.

peeling paint on the room ceiling , old bathroom - should be reconstructed

Full of history with a host who Is passionate about the place.....Great atmosphere and in wonderful surroundings.

Wish bar and / or restaurant had been open in the evening if only for a drink and a relax in lounge.

Johan was a delight, he went out of his way to make us comfy. . The property was historic and very interesting. The surrounding area was gorgeous.

The staff was very polite and helpful. They even offered me authentic swedish cuisine after the official hours of the restaurant. Rooms are comfortable and very nostalgic.

Inner hotel doors were locked during breakfast so I had to walk through the gravel courtyard. Parking is also on gravel, so wear outdoor shoes when you leave the room

The Forsbacka Wärdshus is a privately run lovely historic hotel between Sandviken and Gävle. Our room was spacious enough and the bathroom was one of the warmest during our whole trip across Sweden. It was a perfect start and a perfect end of our vacation. The breakfast buffet held everything we needed even several types of cooked eggs, cereals, ham, cheese and more.

You experience history in each and every room on entering the building. Most amazing is the restaurant's huge ballroom with its arched roof decorated with woodcarvings and paintings. High-class restaurant with a great choice of fish, game, meat and children's dishes. We whiskeylovers as we are got a choice of whiskeys perfectly chosen after our tastes and a great introduction to these by the whiskeysommelier. Wonderfully situated by the lake and river you can take a walk to Forsbacka and it's beautifully renovated historical industrial site of former iron mining and production. Simply a great experience, we loved it!

The antiqueness of the building left it with a few lacks of renovation

In a world where hotels often look quite similar, it was lovely to get to a romantic old place. The staff was also very service minded. Beautiful breakfast room. Too bad I was there alone and only for 12 hours. Very good price it was too.

Really nothing I did not like. But if you do not like nostalgia and romance, this is not the place for you.

Excellent !

Partly broken things and wear in the room and the bathroom
