니노스 하브스바드

Loved Sweden but this hotel was awful. Luckily the three other places we stayed in were wonderful. The room was very small, barely room for the double bed and no space for a table or desk, so stored the suitcase in the bathroom. We paid for a sea view, which to be fair, if you could stand in the little gap between the bed and small window (room 114) , and then squinted between the trees, you could just about see the sea. The window was tiny and you could maybe sit on the corner of the bed with your knees pulled to the side, so wasn't much point anyway. More like a prison cell than an upgraded room! These rooms were in a separate prison block away from the pretty actual hotel. No kettle of course, so we had to wait until 8 in the morning for a coffee in the restaurant, which we had to pay for. So went to the local shop to buy cold coffee cans. Wasn't any space for a kettle anyway they could argue. The spa was full of the walking dead; think a cross between 'Dawn of the Dead' 80's Zombie film crossed with Thomas Mann's 'Death in Venice' or perhaps 'Magic Mountain'. A sanatorium full of the dead and dying. The food was adequate, though I was livid about paying £160 for a buffet for two and a bottle of the cheapest wine. The best part of the stay was packing up and leaving the place, though angry about being robbed by this hotel. Needless to say that we won't be back.

1. Room was not ready by 3 pm. 2. No ventilation in the room. Very hot. The fan made big noise. 3. Pillows were big/thick! 3. Dinner had only one starter, one main and one desert. There was no choice available. 4. Staff was not friendly nor hospitable. 5. Not worth the money!

Lovely visit at Nynas Havsbad. Always welcoming service. The SPA is lovely located with beatyfull views and fantastic facilities. The hotel restaurant serves fantastic good food and wines and the staff make you feel really welcoming. Nice visit as always.

I have stayed here three times in the past few years and expect I will be returning in the future as well. The hotel is beautifully located by the seaside and the area is generally very picturesque. Staff has always been friendly and helpful during our stays. We have yet to try having lunch and dinner here, but the breakfast is nice. Basic, but good. I have read some complaints about the cleaning, but have never encountered any problems in that area myself. The rooms are probably due for an overhaul, but absolutely suffice. As for the drawbacks, the main one for me is the lack of airconditioning. The rooms have a tendency to get unberably hot in summer, but cracking open a window will basically get you swarmed by bugs. Mosquitoes, gnats and flies are abundant, as are some pretty sizeable spiders (one got into my bed and another one came too close for comfort. Do not recommend). This is a forested area in addition to being waterside and bugs are to be expected, but I absolutely don’t understand why the hotel doesn’t at least invest in some netting/screen windows so guests can cool the rooms down a bit without issuing an open invitation to all manners of insects. Some rooms have a fan, but fans really only serve to move the warm, stale air around a bit. I also wish spa entrance was included in the room price as 450 SEK daily is way too steep for pool/sauna access, lovely as the spa pavillion is. Other spa services I’ll happily shell out for. All in all we are always pleased to stay here for a few days, but some improvements are increasingly in order to justify the price point.
