The Clarion Collection Hotel Bilan has the unique distinction of being housed inside what once was a county prison building. The rooms are actually in what used to be the cells of the prison. Throughout the property, you'll get to enjoy features like tall ceilings and exposed beams, as well as a large terrace and garden that are nice in the summer.
The hotel has a sauna where you can rejuvenate yourself before or after a day. There's a meeting room and a computer station so working travelers will have a private space to conduct business. You'll find a free breakfast buffet available every morning, and an on-site bar to grab a drink or two at. The staff consists of members who can speak four different languages amongst them.
You can book rooms that accommodate up to a family of four. You can also book your room at a rate that will include your dinner each night. There are 73 rooms at the Clarion Collection Hotel Bilan. They all have TVs with cable or satellite channels, work desks, hairdryers, and in-room safes. Housekeeping cleans the rooms daily.
The on-site restaurant at the Clarion Collection Hotel Bilan is a buffet-style venue that opens for breakfast and dinner. You'll find plenty of other dining options within walking distance of the property, like Spicy Hot for fast food, Baron serving Mediterranean food, and Br. Olsson's Elektriska that serves European fare.
Karlstad Cathedral is only a four-minute walk from this location. You can check out Varmlands Museum, Wermland Opera, and the Town Hall after a quick walk. There's also Sommarro Golf Club that's not far from the hotel.
