Wåxnäs Hotel-Konferens Review

In case you have to face a trivia question, the site of this hotel was famous in the 18th and 19th centuries as Sweden's biggest marketplace for horse trading. Today it's the best value hotel in town. Once again, to save money you have to leave the grand old dames of the historic core and head slightly out of town -- in this case to a triangle of land 1.5km (1 mile) away that abuts the E18 highway. The two-story hotel offers internationally modern bedrooms outfitted with angular, motel-style furniture that's comfortable but not particularly plush. The owners are a Swedish-Greek team headed by members of the Apostolidi family. There's a bowling alley on-site, under separate management.

Facilities:
Bar; sauna; room service; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; Wi-Fi in lobby; rooms for those w/limited mobility

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
