Inspector Wallander?

by deptlads - last update: Aug 18, 2006

Ystad

Hotel Sekelgården
Yes Ystad really is quaint, and very Swedish in some respects.

We stopped here for a couple of days en route from Bornholm (DK) to København.

Andrew got a chance to use his Swedish (sort of).

We did stay at this hotel (in the Wallander Suite as a free upgrade - but see the hotel review below under Hotels & Accommodations) and enjoyed the hospitality of the microbrewery/restaurant next door.
Herb garden in Ystad

Monastery garden

The old monastery in Ystad has a rather excellent herb garden/cabbage patch. It is very well signed, but if you want more information you can dial-up a short guided tour on your mobile phone (in English!)

We were not so impressed by this hotel. See the individual write-up linked below (under Hotels & Accommodations) for the reasons why.

Pros:"Very clean. Very friendly."
Cons:"Maybe too clean!"
In A Nutshell:"Very Swedish, but not very Swedish (discuss...)"
