I stayed at the hotel for 4 nights in the middle of July. Everyone working here was extremely nice and helpful. I tried both restaurants and got some food from the kiosk and everything was great. The room was pretty big and tidy with unmatched sea view - you are truly two steps away from the ocean. Even though it is a calm area, there is a lot to do around. The public transport during summer was not ideal, but you can still get pretty much anywhere you want. Renting a car or biking around would definitely be more convenient.
With being so close to the water, I would have loved to have a bathrobe and slippers ready in my room, they were never provided.
The room has a lot of windows, which means everyone can see inside. It is not only the other hotel guests, but also people who visit the bar or the restaurant who are constantly walking around your room and staring inside, if your room is on the ground floor. You can give up the sea view and close the blinds, or enjoy the view and give up your privacy. On the last day, three boats docked right in front of my room, which was even more uncomfortable.
It seemed like the hotel is built mostly of wood, so you can hear every single step people take around and above your room. This is especially "lovely" if a family with small children has a room above you, the noise was pretty unbearable sometimes.
Breakfast is open for just 2 hours so it can get pretty busy. You might have to wait in line every time you want to go get something.
For me, this was unfortunately not the kind of stay I was hoping it would be. I believe the hotel would be a much more enjoyable place if it was adult only, if the hotel room windows were mirrored on the outside and if the boats were not able to dock in front of the hotel rooms. Next time visiting Klädesholmen, I would probably book and airbnb in the village and come to Salt & Sill for the amazing food.
3* for the hotel, 5* for the restaurants and kiosk
