Disturbingly billed as Sweden's 'Fawlty Towers', this smart family-run establishment re-
sembles that madhouse in appearance only (yes, there's an elk head at reception). The pub-
lic spaces sport chandeliers, oil paintings and clean, parquet-floored rooms, while the
rooms are crisply modern.
There is a classic English afternoon tea (Skr195) and a hearty breakfast buffet served in
the hotel's pleasant dining room (but thankfully not by Manuel!).
It's close to the train station.

Located across from the beautiful Järnvägsparken, Hotell du Nord is appropriately leafy
and tranquil. The main dusky-rose 19th-century building looks like a doll's house, staff are
friendly and the rooms are light filled and welcoming (those in the aesthetically challenged
rear building are freshly renovated and larger). There's a patio for outdoor summer break-
fasts.
