Thorskogs Slott

Spent a weekend here during a snow storm. Staff was really nice and gave us a tour of the castle. We got the lovely black room on the top floor. During the day, there are plenty of nice hiking trails to do. Hotel offers free coffee and cakes. Our package included lovely 3 course dinner. In the evening, one can play board games in the cellar. Breakfast is in a winter garden and is very abundant.

Second year that we spent the New Year's eve in this property (we took the two-night new years package). Loved it the first time, and loved it the second. Amazing organization, beautiful premises and very good food. Whether you join the proposed activities (recommended at least the first time) or you stay peacefully by your own in the castle, you are guaranteed a nice and pleasant experience. The owners are perfect hosts who know how to entertain guests for two days without being intrusive but neither neglecting things. All is organized beautifully and to perfection. I guess we could go for a third time...

We stayed one night and had the 4 course Christmas dinner menue with 1 wine and 1 non-alcohol wine pairing. Charming old estates comes with winding stairs no lifts and small rooms. This have all of that and more. The dinner was superb allbeit a bit loud as the wine started to kick in with the guests. The kitchen was complemented with equally good service at the table. I would like to come back and find that the Norwegia salmon was swapped with something more lokal, then the starter might be even better.

There are a lot of Swedish manors and castles that have been transformed to hotels and conference sites. Thorskog is one of the best I've encountered. The castle itself - in a "cinderella" style from the 19th century - is well tucked away in a forest in good distance from the main roads. Extensive garden area with lots of beautiful lawns and paths to stroll. Lovely main building with stylish spaces for socializing as well as dining, having coffee or just enjoying the lavish interiors. There are rooms/suites both in the castle and in nearby buildings - the latter more modern of course, but still very stylish. Very comfortable large beds. No AC though. Staying at Thorskogs probably is a part of a "package" where dinner is included. We had such a package and the three course dinner was excellent; fine cooking and a small but well chosen wine list. A beef tartar with interesting flavours was followed by a slightly salted and butter fried "långa" (ling fish in English). Perfect pace between the servings. On the whole Thorskog is a great experience offering a very high standard. Four official stars, but I would say it touches five stars summing it all up. That goes for both the environment and the service delivered from the staff (with the small exception that the wines were served in the wrong glasses). Highly recommended!

A swedish castle!

The castle is very nice, room is spacious and decently cleaned, and the surroundings are magic, particularly during Christmas time (when we visited). We booked two nights and the food and service was very good the first evening. We were promised a new menu the second evening, as the hotel runs the same set menu every night. That didn’t go well. The restaurant didn’t have control (too many guests and too little staff this evening), service was poor, we were waiting 1h45min to get the second course, one course was cold, we payed for 4 courses but ended up getting 3, we did get presented what we would be served, etc. In total, not a good experience and it significantly reduced our experience. We were in contact with staff during the evening and were promised a discount after complaining about the poor experience. The discount given was to not being charged for a wine package (we where sharing one wine package between us), i.e. four glasses of wine. Not what we had expected, given the price of over 6.000 SEK per night (room, breakfast and dinner).

Dette var et fantastisk opphold, og vi vil gjerne benytte Thorskog slott både til fortid og i jobbsammenheng!

Besökte slottet med mina barn 7,9,10 år och deras mormor. 1 övernattning. Vi hade en fantastisk upplevelse; gick en av de tre promenad slingorna som finns, fika i den fina slottsparken och kikade runt på slottet. Middagen med tillhörande vin var utsökt komponerad och barnens meny var också uppskattad. Väl Corona-anpassat med eget uppdukat middagsbord i eget matsalsrum och fantastiskt bra service. Fina sällskapsytor i källaren som även de gav känsla av slottsmiljö och som även inbjöd till att kunna hålla avstånd om man som gäster vill umgås enskilt. Barnen uppskattade biljarden och dart och så även vi vuxna. Fint sovrum i tillhörande byggnad med känslan av slott även där. Bra städat på rummen. Sköna sängar. Lättillgängligt även om man ibland har svårt för trappor. En uppskattad vistelse för oss alla.
