Strand Hotel Balka Søbad

Bornholm


Boasting its own bathing beach, this hotel has 106 rooms in two-storey buildings scattered around forested grounds. Rooms might recall the late '70s, but they’re pleasant and clean, and have at least two twin beds, a sofa bed, balcony and kitchenette. The lobby's decor is something out of Mad Men. Facilities include a tennis court, swimming pool, bar and restaurant.
