Clarion Collection Hotel Cardinal

Good place in the city center. The buildings are beautiful and the interiors too. The service is excellent and the lunch has various range of choices.

This is honestly one of the best hotels I’ve visited in Sweden. We had reserved a deluxe room and got a massive (roughly 45-50 sqm) junior suite, with a hint of luxury and comfy furniture. The shower, while a bit dated, was also massive and had fantastic (dare I say unrivaled) water pressure in the rainfall showerhead. Best of all, the was quiet and undisturbed from the ”stadsfest” going on outside. Philip at the front desk was also truly superb - the best service I’ve gotten at any hotel in Sweden. Unfortunately, I can’t give a full five stars since some of the towels had hairs on them (eww) and the ventilation was non-existant, even with fully opened windows.

Convenient for centre of Växjö and local amenities such as shops, cathedrad, lake, railway station etc. Some rooms are generous size. Dinner is included but with no choice provided. Breakfast is rather basic. Secure basement car park. Helpful staff on reception.

Location is right in the town centre and perfect for shops & restaraunts with a supermarket a 2 minute walk away. The room was compact but perfectly laid out with all the essentials you would need. I had no sound drainage from the hall but could hear some from the street outside in the evening but it was Eurovision night so anticipated that and nothing too distracting. Considering it is a free extra, the breakfast & dinner buffets are very good. Staff are also extremely helpful as they checked immediately upon me reporting an issue with the door and being offered an alternative room immediately. I would certainly be happy to stay here again.

Fabulous hotel, great proximity to station. Free dinner and breakfast which was exceptional quality and quantity. This hotel coped extremely well with many British visitors on Monday night in town for parkrun by the lake. They were extremely helpful and friendly. The staff at breakfast worked very hard and I thanked them personally. I totally recommend it. Disliked · Just some noise on the front, but it was warm so windows had to be open. They provided a fan. This is not the hotel's fault, but if you are a light sleeper, request a room nearer the back.

Having been married for 25 years to a Hotel General Manager, Ive stayed in hotels all over the US. I have stayed at this hotel a total of 3 times before, and have always been pleased with the staff, the food, and the cleanliness. The rooms have been recently renovated and what an amazing difference! Lina checked us in (and out) and was beyond professional and helpful, not to mention extremely knowledgable and friendly. The beds are new and very comfortable, amazing fluffy and oversized pillows too. Very nice amenities including higher end hand soap and shower gel. The room provided everything we could need except a mini fridge which would have been a nice add-on. The cleanliness was outstanding! And as a former hotel person I know what to look for...the only thing I found out of place was 1 fingerprint on one of the 3 huge windows... ; ) No dust and sparkling clean bathrooms, and surfaces. Dinner and breakfast buffet (along with coffee /tea and cookies at check in )are always included in the cost of the room. For dinner last night the menu consisted of no less than 5 very creative salads, (think mushroom, caesar, bean and so on. All very flavorful and fresh. The mains were roasted pork loin with two sauce options along with really amazing au gratin potatoes, fresh bread choices as well. Fruit and cheese. Drink options are water (only still) ,everything else is for purchase (wine, beer, cider, soda). Breakfast was also outstanding...very Swedish/English touches, baked beans, scrambled eggs, bacon, small smoked sausages, hard and soft boiled eggs were among the hot dishes along with cold cereals, extensive fresh breads, a fruit and cheese table. Oatmeal with all the options including fresh lingonberries, and pastries. And famous Swedish pancakes (think crepes )They even had a sampling of fresh micro-greens, smoked cold meats like pork, ham and turkey to put on your traditional Swedish macka or open faced sandwich). This hotel is located in downtown Växjö within walking distance to great bars and nightlife including a real Irish pub just across from the hotel that offers live Irish music on the weekends.The hotel offers a sauna and a gym, and a really lovely lounge with cocktails for purchase. The only drawback I could find was no ice machines, but this is to be expected for hotels in Europe. There is for fee garage parking (about 19.00 usd per night), but local (free after 6pm parking is just around the corner) I cant say enough great things about this property. We will be regulars for sure!!!

Very small rooms. The rooms in the mainbuilding are of good standard and have everything you need, including a comfortable bed. But way too small. Breakfast is very small and lacks some kind of pastries or cookies.

We stayed four nights in a family room with two kids and two adults. The room was a very good size and nicely arranged. Unfortunately the cleaning standard was too low with a lot of dirt/dust under the beds, sofa, and carpets. The sofa was missing a leg. There is one cleaning in the room every third day. We asked for removal of dirty coffee cups and replacements of towels on day two. Although told be the reception that this was arranged nothing happened. I asked about laundry service at the reception. Travelling with two kids we basically just needed to fill a washing machine with mixed clothes. Looking at their pricelist this would cost us manu thousands of Kroner since for example one t-shirt was 100kroner. The reception had no alternatives for this way of doing a was that in our old household would cost maybe 10kroner The breakfeast was simple and nice. The dinner was better than expected!

Das Clarion Collection Hotel Cardinal liegt sehr gut zur Stadt und den Sehenswürdigkeiten in Växjö. Das Hotel selbst ist eher mäßig, die funktionalen Zimmer haben keine Klimaanlage und sind laut. Das Frühstück ist ok
