The hotel is very elegant and the breakfast exceeded our expectations. Staff is really friendly and our view was great (looking at the river and seeing the upper side of the castle). More

My wife and I stayed there for almost a week, Oct 17-22, 2011 and had a delightful experience. The hotel is a piece of Uppsala past, a bit on the worn side but very charming. The staff was excellent, the service very fine. Our room, a corner room with a balcony was large and very appealing, though closet space was... More

I stayed here for two nights for business. As such, the internet WiFi worked well, and there was enough room to work. There were lots of electrical outlets to plug in my various peripherals. The room itself was very small, and the bed seemed very tiny as well. It gave a reasonably comfortable sleep...but since I was jet-lagged, I'm not... More

I stayed 2 nights at Hotel Hornan which is a well-preserved old hotel in the centre of Uppsala with views over the river. The whole building is refreshingly free of the features of modern international hotels. There is wood everywhere. I liked the paintings around the walls. My room was small but perfectly adequate and clean. The wireless internet was... More

I am a little bit confused about what to say about this hotel. It´s weird, but I still liked it and enjoyed the stay. I had a single room, with an old metal bed. Towels were like cloth. Toilet/shower was quite small. But I still liked it, thats the strange thing. I think it is hard to describe it, you... More

A bit worn down but perfectly clean and serviceable in elegant old period building. Despite the period building the hotel is rather unpretentious. Cosy and charming rooms; I had one with a little balcony. Free and VERY fast internet, very reliable. Full marks for this! Very breakfast room with a good selection for the buffet (Swedish, not British or *very*... More

Spent 1 night here recently on my trip across the Scandinavian countries. Uppsala is a lovely, quaint town with a beautiful cathedral and lovely little river running by most of the city (which happens to be right next to the hotel). The hotel is a cosy, walk-up hotel with simple but uniquely designed rooms, equipped with the basic amenities you... More

The Grand Hotel Hornän is definitely a special place. It is one of these grand old hotels in provincial towns that has been built a century ago and that has started a long and steady decline. Nowadays it is a very decent hotel at relatively low cost : good value for money, if you like the old-fashioned style of the... More
