THe hotel supposedly dates back to the 16th century making it not just Ribe’s oldest, but probably one of the oldest in Scandinavia! SO you get to stay and sleep in a piece of history. And every nook and corner of the hotel oozes historic character - from murals and paintings to timber and writings. They even offered free Coffee, that you could help yourself to all day long, from a machine in the lobby. LOCATION: Fantastic location right in the main square in front of the stunning cathedral DINE + DRINK: Excellent Restaurant with an outdoor terrace almost hugging the Cathedral and the main square. ROOM: I stayed in Room 103, so this review is based on that; VIEW: Sweet view of the half-timbered houses and the street; SIZE: Very spacious room; AIR-CON: No Aircon but the room was cool enough; BED: Comfortable bed that played the expected part to put me to sleep; BATHROOM: Stand in shower that was quite small; TOILETRIES: Good cosmetics. FACILITIES: No Gym or Pool, just pure Viking Village chill! SERVICE: Friendly staff that took care of all our needs with a smile and made us feel pampered and well taken care of. Special Shout out to the restaurant staff who helped with all my special requirements HOW WIRED YOU WILL BE: Free high-speed Wi-Fi (around 75 Mbps) that works well all over the property. And for an old heritage inn like this, I was shocked to see a Big Plasma TV screen dishing out dozens of channels spanning sports, news, music, movies and a wide variety of entertainment in multiple languages!

The oldest hotel in the oldest town in Scandinavia, what is there not to love? Sure, there are no elevators, but that is to be expected when staying in a 16th century building, which is totally part of its charm. The location is unbeatable, right smack in the middle of Ribe. Facilities and Wi-Fi are excellent, and the room is super cozy and comfortable.
