Reviews and Ratings
My stay at Nabben House was a delightful experience. The rooms were fantastic, offering thoughtful amenities like dog chews, blankets, bowls, and even poop bags. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and the house and junior suite were spacious, featuring a big living room with a dining table, couch, and TV. The location was perfect for our needs, being very close to the ferry terminal and within easy walking distance to the old town. However, the service left something to be desired with a lack of English spoken and an unwelcoming check-in experience. The dining options were superb, offering a good selection of tasty items, while the facilities were top-notch. In terms of value for money, the experience was mixed with some elements exceeding expectations and others falling short.
Staying in the junior suite on the ground floor with a view of the ferry port, I found the rooms at the hotel to be clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. The service was a mix of helpful and unfriendly encounters, with a noticeable lack of warmth during check-in. The location, while not perfect, proved handy for those catching the early morning ferry back to the mainland. The dining options offered a good selection of items, and the facilities were generally satisfactory.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were very small but clean and had two beds, which was convenient. The service was a bit of a letdown at check-in, but the staff redeemed themselves with a friendly attitude during breakfast. The location was ideal for our early morning ferry, but there was an issue with towels in the pool area. The dining options were a hit-or-miss, with some dishes being excellent while others fell short. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
Staying in this hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms in buildings with elevators are clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, making for a cozy stay. While the potential disturbance was minimal, it could have been slightly more disruptive. The service was friendly and accommodating, with staff going out of their way to ensure a pleasant stay. The location is convenient, particularly for those coming from the ferry with just a short walk to the inner city. The dining options offered a variety of choices, including traditional Greek products, though there is room for improvement in some aspects. The hotel's facilities were satisfactory, offering adequate amenities for a comfortable stay.
I had a mixed experience at this Scandic hotel. The location is convenient for exploring Visby and near the harbor, but there were some issues with cleanliness and service. The rooms could use better maintenance, especially on the ground floor, and the reception and breakfast service left much to be desired. Despite the drawbacks, the friendly staff did make an effort to improve our experience, particularly during breakfast.
