I have stayed here before, and the advantage is that it is close to the highway E18 and easy to get to. The room (102) was outdated but clean and looked just like so many other Scandic rooms. The best thing is the view of the river, so make sure to book a room facing the river and not the... More

The hotel is located by the Klaralven river and offers a fantastic view from the dining room and the adjoining large verandah sit-out. There is also a wooden staircase from the verandah sit-out to go down to the river side via a wooden bridge. We were a group of 26 and had a comfortable stay for a night. The complimentary... More

Middle class hotell, nice located at the riverside, and badly located next to the E18 highway. Service, rooms and restaurang are quite ok, typical Scandic style. Be aware of the high traffic noice for rooms located towards the highway. Book room located towards the river. They have very nice view and are quiet. Good value for money, much cheeper then... More

Nice pleasant place to stay. A little road noise but doesn't interfere with sleep. Breakfast is very good, nice, varied choice. Restaurant food is very good too. Gym is not too big but all the equipment is very new and all works. Pool is small but adequate. Always stay here when working in Kristenhamn.

The Scandic concept is a bit like McDonald's, you know what you get. The extra spice here is a sauna and a small indoor pool. A good breakfast is also included. The... More

This hotel is functional and clean. We enjoyed being along the beautiful river. The food was very good, with a huge selection! We loved having our breakfast on the patio with the beautiful view of the river. 15 minutes was not a bad walk into the center of town. There are bicycles at the hotel if you wish to use... More

This hotel is perfectly placed for all who just passing by Karlstad - just few meters from E18 motorway. You do not need to go into the city and try to find Your already booked hotel. Good location outside the city. But if You want to spend some time in the city, then choose the different one. Hotel is placed... More

The Scandic Klaralven is a standard functional business hotel. The hotel is bordered on one side with a river and the E18 motorway on the other side. The location is a 15 minutes walk from the centre of Karlstad, where there are plenty of good bars and restaruants. I was there for a football match and the hotel is a... More
