Top Kalmar Hotel Reviews

Home Hotel Packhuset

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and very helpful staff. Beautiful harbor view as well."

Hotel Skansen

8/10 Good

"Great welcome from friendly staff. Bed was smaller than expected and mattress was tired. Cases had to be lifted up some stairs. Would have expected lattes as standard breakfast item in this level of hotel, not an additional cost. Overall good but not excellent"

Stufvenäs Gästgifveri

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful location for a relaxing break. We enjoyed the spa facilities and breakfast was great, lots of choice and nice coffee. Would recommend having a car, 30min drive to Kalmar for the Ironman"

Frimurarehotellet, Sure Hotel Collection by Best Western

10/10 Excellent

"Great location"

First Camp Stensö Kalmar

10/10 Excellent

"There were many many trails to hike and bikes to Rent so we could ride into town... the bikes we rented were in really good shape and fit us perfectly with a few adjustments and we could ride to the castle and all around town and then many places to park the bikes and we had locks which was really good. We could also explore pass along the water which was beautiful and it just happened that the weather was very, very good. The people that worked at the reception were super nice and super helpful and the day that we left to the central station they were able to call us a taxi. It's not necessary to have a car there because if you wanna ride a bike, it's an easy bike ride into town and the whole area is a beautiful place to hike and bike and be on vacation and enjoy the views and the fresh air. The cabin was very comfortable and small. There was a place to cook and eat and lots of picnic tables outside so you could cook inside and take your food outside to the picnic tables and enjoy the Views."
