The staff is not interested in your wellbeing, they just do their job. Breakfast like what you could expect from ** hotel. Yeasterdays eggs, old cheese etc. Do not eat lunch or dine here... Room cleanig, well, they make your bed. At arrival there was hair in the shower.. Unfortunate, the competition in town are poor.

The hotel name "Gamla teatern" means "The old theatre". Elements from the old theatre make a unique atmosphere. There are more modern and fancy hotels in the city, but few hotels can match the relaxing atmosphere you find here. The hotel is situated just a short walk to all central facilities as shopping and restaurants. The breakfast is not overwhelming... More

We were in Östersund early in march, and decided to stay at Hotel Gamla Teatern. The location of the hotel is very central, and if you bring a car you can park at the hotel lot, or a parking house 100m away. The main shopping street is 200m away, and the area is full of shops, restaurants and coffeshops. The... More

This hotel I stayed at on a tour is not nice at all. I am a single traveler and my bedroom was so tiny, like a cupboard! Could not put my luggage any where! Rubbish blinds and only one pillow. Very dark bed room. This hotel used to be a theater. Should be knocked down! There must be better hotels... More

This traditional hotel is a conversion of a former theatre; it still contains the attractive original auditorium and there are displays of theatrical memorabilia around the public areas of the hotel. Our room was well furnished and comfortable. However, due to the position of the blinds, it was not possible to open the windows much at night, so the room... More

Gamla Teatern could be a charming property, unfortunately its potential is not being exploited. We had a double room which had been renovated for some years ago, and the room itself was in alright shape. The corridors, breakfast facilities, reception, sauna and so on is dark and uninviting, not cosy or stylish at all. Also, be aware that there are... More

We are a family mof three and had a couple days at this hotel in May of 2011 due to the fact that we were attending a seminar there. We drove approx. for 9 hours to get there, and the city itself was a quiet, sleepy town. It didn't appear to be happening so much there, apart from this seminar.... More

I've tried three other hotels in down town (if there is a "down town"...) Östersund and this was the best so far. A lot of charm both in the lobby, restaurant, breakfast area, and in the room itself. The room was #219 on the same floor as the lobby. Rather small but perfect for the solo traveler. The bathroom was... More
