Best Western Plus Vasterviks Stadshotell

Lovely hotel close to the water, restaurants, bars and shops. Quiet area but also close enough to the bars etc along the cobbled street. Nice rooms with plenty of space and large bathroom. We didn't eat at the hotel as it was cheaper to eat elsewhere. There is a nice central area at reception that's brilliant for meeting with family and friends and the hotel bar close by too. less

Two professional sommeliérs from best Western Hotel Västervik led a competition between French and american chardonnays, pinot noirs and Zinfandels. Informative, and pleasant not to forget the masterpiece from the kitchen: barbeque/colaglazed sirloin steak. less

Västervik isn't a large city and this hotel is consequently well-located nearby the harbour area and the pedestrian shopping streets. The hotel seems mainly focused on conference guests, providing meeting rooms and a relax/sauna/gym/pool area. It also has a restaurant. The layout of the hotel is not the usual one; the lobby is e.g. co-located with the large breakfast room and 20-30 steps into the building, behind the restaurant. The ceiling height in the hotel is generally very low which adds to the feeling that the hotel is not very modern. It's kept very clean, though. Our room was a family room that could sleep 4 in two rooms, sharing one bathroom. Much space - except for the bathroom which was of normal size for a double room. Also here, very clean. The bathroom had been renovated later than the rest of the room. The beds were soft and not very comfortable - especially not the two "kids" beds that were very narrow. Wi-Fi works well. The breakfast had highs and lows. Missing oat meal. Some of the hot choices (meat balls, sausages) were prefabricated which signals low quality. In contrast, the breakfast did offer some very good things (e.g. smoothies and small cold cuts) unique to the hotel. Long distances between tables and the food - which is also spread out over a large area; somewhat confusing to e.g. have to walk over a corridor to find coffee and tea. One would expect a lower price in a small city a regular winter weekend - so the value was overall so-so. Guess competition is not that fierce in Västervik. Friendly staff at the reception, but both times we used it, it took the staff 2-4 minutes to come. Parking in the street - the hotel also offers parking, but the fee is unnecessary hefty. less

Rooms are nice, and with good standard. The bed i liked, also there is a kettle in the room a small detail that I really appreciate. Also visited the restaurant and to my satisfaktion there where several non meat options. They have a fitnes and spa, but i had no time to use it on this trip. Not the cheapest, but OK value for money. less
