Elite Grand Hotel Norrkoping

We had a fantastic stay and would highly recommend this hotel. Our family room was spacious and comfortable, making our visit truly enjoyable. The staff were exceptionally accommodating and friendly, always ready to assist with anything we needed.nnA special thank you to Rebecca, who kept our room immaculate with great attention to detail. I truly appreciated her warm and welcoming nature, as well as our lovely conversations—her local recommendations for shopping and dining were invaluable!nnOverall, a wonderful experience, and we would gladly return.

Great location, a bit small and worn rooms. But we had a nice view from our window. Service was great and breakfast was OK. Big plus for having The Bishops Arms in the same building. Close to restaurants and shopping. Took a nice morning run along the water. Friendly and helpful staff. Will return.

I must confess that when I booked an economy single room I thought the room size stated on the booking confirmation a little less than 5 square meters was a calculation error because I can't imagine a room of this size especially in Sweden where most males are 6 foot and taller.nnThe room was indeed tiny and contrary to the room description it did not face any winter garden.nnThe room also had no kettle which is especially unexpected in Scandinavia.nnIt did have amenities that are in my opinion not needed and they also take up space which as you can imagine was very limited.nnThese include a mini bar, a phone and a small safe which means there is no storage space except for t shirts on the hangers.nnThere is also a decorative blanket on top of the bed which I am especially not fond of as these rarely if ever get washed and in such a confined space they are probably tossed on the floor behind the bed by most guests.nnThe service is very friendly but I think the hotel over sells itself starting with its name and the description which suggests opulence and old world charm which in a tiny room with a 2 meter ceiling and a window to an inner courtyard is amusing.nnBreakfast is nothing to write home about.nnIt has the basics including ecological eggs but the quality of the bread is low and it leans more towards the Anglo-American junk food culture ie pancakes from powder mix, cookies with low quality chocolate spread and colourful candies some ignorant parents were feeding their children with etc. than it does a wholesome Nordic breakfast.nnOn my next stay in Norrkoping I will continue to admire the lovely building of the hotel from afar.

I had a rather bad experience staying in this hotel for three nights.nThe room was tiny 10sqm, the bathroom included. The sink was so small, I could only put my toothbrush. The TV was mounted so badly that all cables were hanging out left and right.nAC was not adjustable and heating all the time and the only window was facing a courtyard with no fresh air.nBut the worst thing was the old elevator directly next to my room that made a loud buzzing sound every time it started.nFinally, the hotel does not even have a Spa or a Sauna which was quite a disappointment given its Sweden.nI would not recommend anyone staying there.

Good location, decently sized room. Good range on the breakfast where the cold stuff is cold and the warm stuff is warm—no lukewarm disappointments. Smooth check-in and checkout.
