It is in the PERFECT location in the center of Solvang. It is quite quaint, with a beautiful water feature in front and half-timbered facade. You enter the lobby through a stone tower.

The hotel is under renovation, and the walkway outside my door was plywood. There was no hot water for the shower. Sadly, I discovered this too late to call and ask it be addressed. Cold shower was the only alternative as I had not allowed for extra time. My room was listed on the second floor (27A) and all rooms seemed to overlook the pool, but when I got to the door, there was another set of stairs and a view of the side street and parking. If you want hot water and a view of the courtyard and pool, ask for it.

Clean and comfortable room. There is parking. Also, there is a swimmingpool (which we didn't use as it was february). There were danish pastries next to the reception in the morning.

We had the option to pay for a better room with breakfast. After reading at previous comments that there was no proper breakfast we decided not to book this option. Indeed, they said they did not have breakfast when we asked at the reception, just the danish pastries. For us they were complimentary pastries, which we enjoyed. But this could be updated on the webpage in order to avoid confusion.

Friendly staff, VERY clean room, surprisingly comfortable beds, and free parking! The location is phenomenal, just across the street to the buzzy Solvang downtown (much appreciated in busy seasons when it's impossible to find parking anywhere in town).

The property is (and looks) very dated, floors creaky, etc... No restaurant or food on premise (breakfast pastries were great though). Now, for the price, the location, the free parking, the shockingly comfortable beds and cleanliness, the "negatives" are nothing more than a detail. Our second stay here, and won't mind coming back for more.

We stayed in October/2024, the room was comfortable because it was spacious, fireplace made our stay cozy. The two recliners were a nice surprise and comfy which made it great to relax on after a long day of adventure. We did not use the kitchen but it was nice to know it was there if needed. The small fridge was essential for left over food. Loved the dressing room and restroom separate from the bedroom. Loved it so much that we booked the room again for a trip this December.

The room above us was busy ( people coming and going pretty much all night). We heard foot steps back and forth and sounded like moving furniture most of the night.

The swimming Pool.

This hotel has always been my first choice. Breakfast was disappointing this time. 1 plate of Danish. Nothing else. We were there for three nights. After the first night the towels were not changed. That was our own fault; we stayed in the room for a long time. But even after the second night, no towels were changed, toilet paper and no coffee. It later turned out that the back of the sign "do not disturb" also contained text. "Please clean the room." We weren't told that. Still, we had a wonderful stay

Loved everything! Location - walking distance from everything! Plenty of parking, well lit, our room had everything from a mini fridge, sink, coffee pot, fireplace, ironing board, iron, plenty of blankets, pillows, shampoo, lotion. I literally cannot wait to plan our next stay in this hotel. It was very roomy and very comfortable.

I wish they offered continental breakfast rather than just Danish, but appreciated them.

The room was great. The fireplace was wonderful to wake up to. The two recliners were great to relax in. The building itself had a dated look to it that made it look warm and fuzzy. However, the "breakfast" was something that was left to be desired. I love Danishes. However, I also do not like coming down to the office to see a box holding Danishes that have the "grease" soaked into it. They were hard and were the day old (or older) rejects from a local bakery. They were so hard (how hard were they?) that I took two each day and then painted them black and I am currently using them for Hockey pucks for my team. It may seem like a minor point but a nicer display (put them on a tray) along with a coffee pot and condiments for coffee would have gotten them a much higher rating. Overall, it was worth the money for the room and the staff. I would stay there again if the opportunity presented itself.

Suggest the Continental breakfast is brought back, or at least add coffee to the lobby pastry table The guest room we had is in need of some refurbishment( especially the floor tiles in the bathroom) The "self make " coffee in the room was Horrible! Overall, a great value for such an expensive town. Perfect location and great price in an attractive building, with friendly & professional staff..

I love how our room was spacious. The bed is super comfortable. Loved the fireplace. The couch was nice and comfy. We had the perfect location, we would start from our end of the Inn and walk down to the other end so you didn't miss any shops and our windows had the perfect view of the town. Place was very quiet, cozy, cute and enjoyable.

The cleaning solution they used could be tone done a bit. The chemical smell is very over powering. I think the cleaning ladies are over using the product. It smelled very strong and it lingered for days.

I love staying at Svendgards. We stay here every time we come to Solvang. Perfect location, big rooms, and clean. The staff is always nice.

No Coffee :( this was a huge bummer. They advertise breakfast included but had a plate of Danish (which were great and from a local bakery) but that's all and no coffee. There is little coffee packets in the room but it's awful. I wish they'd bring back fresh coffee.
