ingenting jag bad via email att inte få en hård säng för jag har ryggbesvär men ingen brydde sig om det, jag fick en hård säng, dessutom fick jag ett rum mitt emot ett diskotek där det lät så högt att jag kunde inte sova fram förrän vid 03:00 på natten. Hade man vetat att det ligger ett diskoteket mitt emot rummet/hotellet hade jag inte bokat rum hos er. Ringde till receptionen men hotellet var fullt och de kunde inte göra något så jag fick inte sova bra pga en hård säng och somnade sent pga diskoteket som slutade låta vid 3 på natten.
Frukosten och det vänliga bemötandet Städningen av rummet
Informerat om tillställningen i salen ovanför rummet, då kunde man bytt rum direkt i stället för när man har försökt somna.
Trevlig personal, bra frukost. Sköna sängar.
Bra personal. God frukost och rymliga utrymmen. Perfekt med separat matsal om man har hund med sig. Nära till centrum och parkeringshus. Hotellet är trivsamt. Allt var bra!
Läget och frukosten är helt superbra.
Bemötandet, rummet, miljön Bättre rutiner för kvarglömda saker
Vi fick rummen bredvid varandra och kunde gå emellan utan att ens fråga om det Ver inte vi tyckte det var jättebra på alla sätt✔️💯

Läget och charmen med hotellet. Fantastisk frukost. Hade önskat att golvet i badrummet inte är iskallt! Vackert med marmorgolv men fy så kallt.

Trevlig personal Fick även vänta 30min nästan på att få rummet och incheckning ska garanteras kl 15.00 (fick dock lovat kompensation på två av rummen efter att jag sa till. Synd att det inte fanns något för barnen att göra, har varit på Best Western där barnen kunde spela pingis och olika spel. Lobbyn var inte speciellt mysig det var fullt på Bishops Arms så hade varit trevligt om man kunde suttit och pratat i lobbyn och tagit en drink där och umgås. Men belysning var så stark och ingen mysig musik som spelades.
Hej Matilda, Vi uppskattar att du tog dig tid att recensera din vistelse! Din feedback är oerhört viktig för oss. Ska genast se över musiken och mysfaktorn i lobbyn. Vi har normalt sett musik så den måste ha sänkts av misstag. Vi har spel och pyssel för barnen och även en egen incheckningsdisk. Till sommaren har vi även pingisbord. Tack för dina fina ord om Emilia i receptionen. Vi ser fram emot att få hälsa dig välkommen tillbaka. Med vänliga hälsningar, Caroline Receptionen Elite Stora Hotellet, Jönköping info.jonkoping@elite.se

Frukosten. Härligt med både krasse och andra färska örter att ha på sin frukostmacka som ger det där lilla extra. Rummet kändes slitet och i behov av renovering
Bra service, rent och snyggt i en gammal anrik miljö, mycket trevlig vistelse. Hotellet har ett stort och väl fungerande handikapps rum. Personalen i frukostbuffén skall ha mycket beröm för sin uppmärksamhet och trevliga service. Bristen på parkeringsplatser (mer än 3 timmar) för servicefordon (handikapps parkering) både i anslutning till hotellet och närliggande P-platser inkl P-huset Sesam gör det att vi tyvärr inte kan rekommendera detta hotell till andra som då har samma eller liknande behov.
Läget och en trevlig miljö.
Ett professionellt och vänligt mottagande. Man kände sig välkommen.
Läget, trivseln, atmosfären och att det är ett Elité hotell
byt handdukar och baddat säng andra dag jag varit nöjd
Helheten! Läget! Trevlig personal! Fint rum!
Läget och det fina personalpriset Meddelat att det var disco under den våningen ena rummet låg på, ingen sömn förrän efter 02:00
Allt var perfekt.
Hotellet är bra och personalen är fantastisk Städningen på mitt rum, ej ok.
Sängarna… frukosten. Utsikten. Tack

Frukost
Bra läge med härlig utsikt över Vätten. Jag brukar vilja ha rostade smörgåsar till frukost, men hittade ingen brödrost.
Trevlig personal i matsalen och receptionen Inget
Helt underbart. Linus så bra, han tog hand om oss hela kvällen, så charmig kille o duktig. o service inriktad. Helt underbar vistelse, o även Moa helt suverän. Ni är bäst. 🙏 Tack. Vi kommer tillbaka. Caroline o Eva-lena, rum 126
Trevligt bemötande från personalen.
Att det var så barnvänligt, barnen fick en egen välkomstpåse med gosedjur bland annat. Stort och rymligt familjerum med badkar. Lite mer noggrann städning på rummet hade önskats. Fönsterbrädorna var inte rengjorda och badkaret fick vi också rengöra lite extra. Större papperskorg i badrummet hade också varit bra när man har barn med blöja.
Hej Marina Vi uppskattar att du tog dig tid att recensera din vistelse! Din feedback är oerhört viktig för oss. Jag tar era synpunkter ang städning och papperskorg vidare, men självklart ska det vara städat ordentligt. Så trevligt att höra att ni trivdes hos oss och att barnen tyckte sin goodiebag. Tveka inte att kontakta mig direkt om du skulle vilja dela med dig av något mer. Vi ser fram emot att få hälsa dig välkommen tillbaka. Med vänliga hälsningar, Sarah Receptionen

History of the hotel
What was at that time known as Jönköpings Hotell was built in 1850. This was an enormously bold venture in a city with only 7000 residents. The hotel is one of the country’s oldest and most famous hotels outside the capital. When it opened in January 1860, it was the largest hotel in the country. The rationale behind the huge construction was Jönköping’s strategic location as a rail and road junction, which made it a natural stopover station on the finalized South Main Line.
Right from the outset, the hotel boasted a number of special features. On the ground floor, there was a restaurant, a café, a billiards room, an inn, bank offices and, after a few years, a bathhouse. The middle floor consisted primarily of hotel rooms and the upper floor housed banquet halls, clubrooms and a few other rooms. The Freemasons, then as now, held quarterly on the attic floor, which includes the great assembly hall, Johannessalen.
In 1863, the banquet and assembly rooms were finished two floors up. Since this time, the hotel has boasted the finest banquet facilities in Jönköping County. The hall was magnificent, with glittering gas-burning chandeliers, mirrored walls that gave the illusion of another room beyond, and décor that makes visitors feel as if they had been transported to a fairytale castle. Ever since this room has hosted countless magnificent and memorable balls and banquets.
