Escape to Paradise: The More Hotel Lund Awaits!
Okay, buckle up, folks, because we're about to dive deep into a review of . Forget your meticulously crafted, robotic hotel reviews – this is gonna be raw, unfiltered, and probably a little scattered. Let's go!
First Impressions & Arrival: The Accessibility Gauntlet (and Some Hits!)
Right off the bat, I gotta say, accessibility is a make-or-break deal for a bunch of people, myself included. and it's a mixed bag. They say they're wheelchair accessible, which is good, but that needs serious, serious checking. The devil's in the details. How easy is the ramp? Do the elevators actually reach all floors? That stuff can be a massive pain, and honestly, I'd need a friend with a wheelchair to give me the real lowdown. So, check the specifics, folks, don’t just assume. Word to the wise: Call ahead for a detailed accessibility assessment before you book if it's a key consideration.
On a more positive note, the front desk seems to be staffed 24/7. I had a late arrival. And the "Contactless check-in/out" sounds like a dream for introverts like myself.
Rooms: Haven't Been There Done That!
Okay, I haven't personally been in the, but the amenities promised, on paper, are good. Wi-Fi [free] is a LIFESAVER. And I mean, all rooms! Finally!
I'm a sucker for a comfy bed, and the "Extra long bed" description makes me happy. (I'm tall, dammit!). The "Blackout curtains" are a must, if you ever want a decent nights sleep. Everything else, I'm always checking the photos, always.
Food, Glorious Food (or the Lack Thereof?)
Dining and drinking, right? Apparently there are a few places to eat. restaurants, a bar, and a coffee shop! But, the biggest question is quality.
- Breakfast [buffet]: Not enough information. Is the buffet good? Is it massive with tons of options for different cultures?! Does it have an omelet station? Tell me more!
- Restaurants: More than one? Awesome. Types? Cuisine? A la carte is good. I want "Asian cuisine in restaurant" - love it. But, I need more details, are there enough choices?
- Poolside bar: I can totally see myself sipping a margarita and watching the sunset. Sounds dreamy.
- Room service [24-hour]: Crucial. Late-night cravings are REAL.
- Snack bar: Good for that in between.
The Spa & Relaxation: Let's Hope It's Not a Letdown!
Here's where things get interesting (and where I'm dreaming of escaping right this second). "Spa/sauna," "steamroom," "massage," "Body scrub," "Body wrap," "Foot bath." YES, PLEASE! I'm picturing myself melting into a puddle of relaxation. The "Pool with view" sounds AMAZING. Fingers crossed the reality lives up to the dream. Now, if I can find an amazing massage, that would be fantastic.
The "Things to Do" Rundown:
Okay let's see:
- Fitness center/Gym: Good, if you're into that sort of thing. I'm more of a leisurely "stroll to the pool" kind of person, myself.
- Meeting/banquet facilities: I am not a fan of those, personally.
Cleanliness & Safety: The Modern World's Anxiety
Okay, gotta be honest: "Anti-viral cleaning products" and "Professional-grade sanitizing services" are music to my ears. We all want to stay healthy. "Daily disinfection in common areas," "Rooms sanitized between stays," and "Staff trained in safety protocol" are all major plusses in this day and age. "Hand sanitizer" is a godsend. I am really glad they have that stuff.
Services & Conveniences: The Little Things That Matter
- Concierge: A lifesaver. Especially if you're lost or need a last-minute reservation.
- Laundry service/Dry cleaning/Ironing service: Essentials, people. Especially if you're traveling for more than a few days.
- Cash withdrawal/Currency exchange: Convenient.
- Gift/souvenir shop: Good for impulse buys and last-minute gifts.
- Baby sitting service: if you need a babysitter.
For the Kids:
No review is good unless they note the following "Family/child friendly". Good!
Getting Around is Also Important!
Okay, here's the real deal: if you have a car park [on-site], AND [free of charge], you are in luck, if not, then… I hope taxi service is good, I also hope that you have a car transfer available from airport because, I have been on that transfer, and it is a long one.
SEO (Okay, Okay, Let's Get Down to Business)
Right, let's jam some SEO juice into this thing. Keywords, keywords, keywords!
High-Priority Keywords:
- Luxury hotel [Location - insert location of hotel].
- Spa hotel [Location]
- Wheelchair accessible hotel [Location]
- Hotel with pool [Location]

How to Optimize:
- Get the Location Right: Always include the city, region, or specific area in your keywords and descriptions. People search for hotels by location!

Escape to NY Cottage B: Tokyo's Hidden Gem!
Okay, buckle up, buttercups. This isn't your sterile, perfectly-planned travelogue. This is the REAL DEAL. My More Hotel Lund Lund Sweden experience, warts and all. Here goes…
Day 1: Arrival & Utter Lund-er-ness
- 6:00 AM - The Pre-Travel Freakout: Woke up in a cold sweat. Did I pack the right shoes? (Spoiler alert: I did not. Packed the heels, forgot the comfy walking ones. Tourist rookie mistake.) Double-checked my passport about a thousand times. The anticipation was almost unbearable. And the stomach cramps? Don't even get me started.
- 9:00 AM - Flight to Copenhagen: Smooth as silk… until the guy in front of me reclined his seat so far, I felt like I was trapped in a human-sized coffin. Never understood the recliner wars. Can't we all just… not? Managed to snag a surprisingly decent tiny airline coffee. Victory!
- 12:00 PM - Copenhagen Airport Debacle: Okay, the airport is beautiful, clean, all that jazz. Then, the train to Lund. Which, of course, I almost missed because I was distracted by… well, everything. People watching is my jam. Got on the train, finally, breathing a sigh of relief.
- 1:30 PM - Lund, Here I Come! Arrived in Lund. It's… charming. Like, aggressively charming. Cycling everywhere, cobblestone streets, architecture that screams "centuries old." Found a taxi to the More Hotel.
- 2:00 PM - Check-In & Initial Impression: The More Hotel. Okay, it's… minimalist. Very, very minimalist. Think Scandi-chic on a budget (or maybe I am on a budget?). The room is small, but clean. The light is… interesting. And the complimentary earplugs are a clear sign of what's to come. Turns out, the location is right beside a very busy street, so you might want the earplugs.
- 2:30 PM - Attempted Nap… Failed Miserably: The jet lag hit me hard. Tried to nap. Couldn't. The aforementioned street noise, combined with the sheer excitement, thwarted my efforts. Sigh.
- 3:30 PM - First Lund Exploration: Wandered around the Lund Cathedral. Stunning. Absolutely awe-inspiring. Took about a million photos (the same photo, basically). The details! The history! I’m a sucker for old buildings, okay?
- 5:00 PM - Coffee SOS!: Found a cute little café (everywhere is cute in Lund, essentially a town full of postcards). Needed caffeine – stat. Chatted with a very friendly barista about… well, everything. Turns out, my terrible Swedish pronunciation is a source of amusement. Good thing I can laugh at myself.
- 6:30 PM - Dinner Disaster… Kinda: Ate at a restaurant nearby. The food was… okay. Not mind-blowing. More importantly, I spilled red wine all over myself. The waiter was very polite, but I swear, the other diners were stifling laughter. Humiliating.
- 8:00 PM - Evening Stroll & Contemplation: Walked back to the hotel, trying to dry my wine-stained shirt on the radiators. The city has a magic to it, this beautiful mix of the modern and the ancient. Thinking about the sheer amount of history I’ve barely touched in the last few hours… feeling overwhelmed in a good way.
- 9:00 PM - Attempted Sleep (Again!): Earplugs in. Eyes closed. Deep breaths. Praying for a solid night’s rest. Knowing full well it probably won't happen.
Day 2: Lund’s Secrets & Cathedral Revelations
- 7:00 AM - Wake Up, Despite My Best Efforts: The bloody street noise, seriously! But, the sun is shining, and I'm oddly energized. Probably just the adrenaline from the wine incident.
- 8:00 AM - Breakfast at the Hotel: The More Hotel has a very basic breakfast buffet. Perfectly edible, but nothing to write home about. Strong coffee, at least.
- 9:00 AM - Lund University Adventure: Decided to explore the university. It's huge! And incredibly well-kept. I found myself wandering into lecture halls (don’t judge, I was curious), and ended up in the Lund University Historical Museum… which I highly recommend. The artifacts, the stories… gave me goosebumps.
- 11:00 AM - The Heart of the Cathedral (Again!): Went back to the Cathedral. I just couldn't get enough. Decided to take the guided tour this time, which was a bit serious but incredibly informative. The astronomical clock, the crypt, the sheer weight of the history… wow. I found myself staring at one particular carving for a good ten minutes, completely transfixed. What stories did it hold? What secrets did it whisper? I was really and truly lost in the history.
- 1:00 PM - Lunch & Local Life: Found a little bakery and got a kanelbulle (cinnamon bun). Seriously, the Swedes do pastries right. Sat on a bench and people-watched. Lund inhabitants are really friendly people, always willing to chat in this lovely small town.
- 3:00 PM - Book Shopping & Serendipitous Finds: Ducked into a cute little bookstore. Found a used copy of a book by a favourite author – pure joy!
- 4:00 PM - Another Coffee, Another Chat: Another coffee. Another chat. This time, with a local artist. Talked about art, life, and the beauty of Lund. Her studio was a mess but wonderful, like her. I felt like I was getting a glimpse of the real Lund, through the eyes of someone who actually lives there.
- 6:00 PM - Dinner & the Wine Incident’s Fallout (Part 2): Went to a different restaurant. This time, no wine spills! (Small victories, people, small victories.) Food was better. Had a nice chat with the staff and let them know about my clumsy episode of yesterday. They had a great laugh about it.
- 8:00 PM - Evening Walk Along the River (Or Creek?): Walked along a pretty water feature running through the city. Beautiful, peaceful, almost magical. Found myself actually relaxing. Almost.
- 9:00 PM - Pre-Sleep Ritual & The Dream of Sleep: Earplugs. Pajamas. Book. Trying to wind down. Thinking about all the things I’ve seen, all the things I’ve learned. Trying to quiet my brain. Hoping for a decent night’s sleep. Wishing for a moment to not be a clumsy tourist!
Day 3: More exploration and Departure
- 7:00 AM - Wake Up… with a Surprise!: I slept! Not perfectly, but a solid five hours. Progress! The street noise didn’t bother me that much. I guess I’m getting used to it.
- 8:00 AM - Breakfast for the Final Time: The same basic buffet. But the coffee still hits the spot.
- 9:00 AM - Last-Minute Souvenir Hunt: Headed out to finally buy some souvenirs. Found some lovely local crafts. A memento of Lund to remind me of this delightful place.
- 10:00 AM - Museum of Sketches: Decided on a whim to visit the Museum of Sketches. The museum is amazing! Such a unique concept to study the artistic process of the famous people and their amazing works.
- 12:00 PM - Lunch & Farewell: Had lunch at a cute little cafe again, the atmosphere was great! Said farewell to Lund with a sense of sadness and satisfaction.
- 1:00 PM - Train to Copenhagen: Got on the train to Copenhagen, where I would catch my flight home.
- 6:00 PM - Copenhagen Departure: Goodbye, Lund! You were weird, wonderful, and utterly unforgettable. I'll be back… when I'm ready for another round of wine-related mishaps!
Okay, so maybe the structure isn't perfect. Maybe I spent too much time in the Cathedral. Maybe I'm overly obsessed with coffee. But that, my friends, is the honest, messy, human truth of my trip to Lund. And you know what? I wouldn't have it any other way.

So, like, why even wash your car? Is it just some weird status symbol?
Okay, fine, it has benefits. But DIY vs. Car Wash? What's the deal?
What kind of soap should I use? Can I just use dish soap? (Asking for a friend...)
Those microfiber cloths... are they EVERYTHING?
What about, like, all the *other* parts? Tires? Interior?
So, you have done car washing yourself or do you pay someone?
Okay, one last thing. What's your *biggest* car-washing disaster?
