I stay here twice a year and really enjoy the morning buffet and the easy parking when doing events at the Convention Center in town! The location is central and the ease of getting in and out is always a must for me.

Sliten byggnad, lite äckligt toaletten med suboptimalt städning. Vaknade mitt i natten med någon som ropade ”spy! spy!” på gatan bredvid (d.v.s dålig ljudisolering). Bra läget mitt i stan (fast Jönköping inte är kanske en megalopolis) och ganska bra frukost. Inte värt pengarna i allmänt. Skulle rekommendera att sluta med ”boka frukost dagen innan” systemet, det är bara jobbigt och stressig.

The hotel is very central to the town. The parking is about 2 mins walk away, which does not help if you have heavy bags. There is a small gym and sauna which was ok. Staff were very friendly and breakfast was great.

We booked on last minute so we got a single room with extra bed for two people. This was not nice but ok as we booked late. However, we had to make up the extra bed by ourselves. Not really nice, especially as we arrived late in the evening. Breakfast was a hassle which is, to some extent, undestandable in big and full hotel but still, it was a disappointment. No table to eat and everything finished all the time and no refill coming without long wait. Receptionist did not really speak english which made her also somewhat rude. She did not even try to be nice. Overall, not really a pleasant stay. Would not go again.

Located close to the train station, beach and restaurants. Value for money. Room was comfortable but do note that scandic does not provide a kettle as the water in Sweden is safe to drink from the tap. Swedish breakfast is served every morning

Upon arrival I had to wait for a long time since the staff were busy talking to each other. This hotel is very tired. It needs a renovation. The wood around the door in the bathroom had rotted. The breakfast area was very loud and felt more like a hospital than a hotel. No attempt had been made to create a nice atmosphere. It felt like feeding time. The hotel charged me twice for the room. I had to make an international phone call to tell them to take off the charges. They did not even apologize for the mistake. The social skills of the people at this hotel needs great improvement.
