We liked the option of the jr. suite with attached bunk beds for our short family stay. The room was very large and very clean. The breakfast was also very nice. The auto check in gave us some problems, but luckily there was an employee there to help us get it worked out. Had it been after 9pm, I'm not sure what we would've done. Location is a bit out of the way and it doesn't look like much from the outside, right next to the stadium. But the room was great and we had a nice view of the water. We're pleased with the experience overall.
It's dog friendly, which is fine. But upstairs guests left their dog alone in the room and it barked all morning, waking us up.

Our experience at this hotel was positive. The hotel is located in a unique setting – inside a sports hall – which made for a fun and different atmosphere. Everything inside and outside the room was clean and pleasant, and the breakfast area really stood out: stylish, spacious, and offering a diverse and tasty selection of food. A particularly nice touch was being able to watch hockey practice through the windows while enjoying breakfast – a memorable and enjoyable detail.

The hotel is an integrated part of Löfbergs Arena, an ice hockey arena. Some rooms have a river view others don't have a view at all as they form part of the arena wall. The restaurant opens up onto the rink and you can enjoy your meal watching a game or, as was the case during our breakfast, goal keeper practice on an early Sunday morning.
Our room was an inside room without windows. That was not clear to me when I booked and should be specified clearer.

Breakfast with a view!! Lots of healthy options and you sit right next to the arena. Very cool! Rooms are spacious. Self check-in was easy.
Parking isn’t free and not direct in front of the hotel (but you can unload in front of the hotel). Parking is next to the arena with EasyPark.

Great place for a quick stop-over in Karlstad. Very new and modern place with brand new facilities. Great breakfast and very comfy beds. Nice location with biking and running paths just outside. Quiet surroundings.
The place was so new it was hard to find as they hadn't managed to get proper signs up yet. Other than that all was good once we found the place.

Value for money.
I find the absence of reception staff to be a little stressful, although I understand this aspect helps to reduce costs. I also found the parking issue to be somewhat stressful, although Siri was available on the phone to guide me through the issue.

Interesting to watch ice hockey arena during the breakfast, therefore it is a bit cold near the windows. Breakfast quite good. We also used microwave near the check in.
Hotel parking is located abot 200m from the hotel and cost 90sek/ day. Quite far away from the city center.

New hotel Very clean and comfortable. A very rich and tasty breakfast.
A bit difficult to find. Without classic reception - self-service Breakfast was scheduled until 10:00 a.m., but cleaning already started at 9:45 a.m.... so wake up early and hurry up!
