Scandic Swania

Nice location in Trollhättan with good service and breakfast. It is quite pricey especially considering the room size. Bathroom is comfy. The recreational area near reception is not very inviting and could use an interior designer to make it more attractive. There used to be a sitting area close to the bridge side but was closed now. Be prepared to spend serious money when you want to park in the garage across the street.

The hotel requires a booking to clean the room (before 23:00 the day before); otherwise, it will be left without cleaning. You are asked to book a specific time for your breakfast. It is not allowed to bring a beer to the sauna without a reason. It is not a relaxing time with a lot of restrictions.

I arrived during Trolhättan Action Week, a roller skiing race festival. The hotel was busy with racers, racers family's and race officials everywhere. Apparently the hotel had done this before as the handled the chaos well. While the breakfast buffet was open each morning the restaurant is closed on Sunday or lunch and dinner. The breakfast buffet was well stocked and had the typical Swedish breakfast staples along with a few common British items line baked beans. While the restaurant food was tasty and fresh, I was disappointed in the very limited menu choices. The room itself was clean and quiet with standard amenities. They had a very nice TV but I found the internet to be spotty. It may have been caused by the nearly full hotel with many racers using the same resource. The staff was super friendly and spoke English very well. In fact everyone I ran into in Trollhatten spoke passable English with most speaking extremely well. The lovely ladies that worked reception were very helpful and made sure I was comfortable.

Customer service, Cleanliness, Food, Accommodation & Everything was very good & enjoyable. Toilets were clean & tidy

The hotel stay was really great. Parking you can get outside the street. It doesn’t cost much. Breakfast was really great with great personnel around. The room was comfy. All in all. Great

Filthy, signs of forced entry at our door, rust in the pool area, muddy water in the pool, only one shower in the ladies relax area due to one being broken, room so small you cannot fit in between the wall and the bed besides paying full price for a DOUBLE room for 2 people, only one bedside table.... The list goes longer

Staff is very friendly, but we are very glad this was a one night only experience. To begin with, arriving at 7pm on a sunday in Trollhättan you will have a problem getting food, because the hotel restaurant is closed on sundays! This is not ok in the peak tourist season during the summer. The town itself left us no good options eighter after a long day on the road. We could only find one restaurant open in reality, ofcourse it was already full. The other restaurants were open on Google Maps, but in reality had closed kitchens and were only serving alcohol. Thank god we only were there for the sleep, still it would have been nice with some food. The hotel room was spacious with good beds. It appared clean, but behind the furniture years of no vacuuming came to light. Also black mold in corners of shower. The breakfast was crowded, even though we had to book a slot in advance with a 45 minute window, we had trouble finding a table, they were dirty with used plates if available. Ok selection at buffet, but no clean cutlery to eat with. The bread was dry and old. The rolls were good, but there was not enough rolls for everyone. Great croissants. Had to pass on the pancackes, when we saw mold on them. This was a really terrible hotel breakfast!

It’s a great hotel and they were service-minded and went the xtra mile to help us. We came in late and got help with our food needs.

Very nice hotel with friendly staff. Loved having a seating area in room to relax in. Breakfast and dinner both very good. Only complaints are the pool which isn’t big enough to swim in but more of a plunge pool, and the very high cost of parking over the road.
