Everything was good
A power point next to a table for the kettle would be good.
Palvelu oli loistavaa, aamupala oli myös hyvä!
Tila työpöydän ja sängyn välissä oli todella pieni joka teki työskentelyn työpöydän äärellä vaikeaksi jos halusi nousta ylös.
Ottima posizione, colazione curata e ricca.
Close proximity to ferry and old city. Really nice breakfast, with variety. Friendly helpful staff & cleaners. Afternoon coffee & cookies. Bright reception lounge area.
Quite outdated decor. Stained curtains. Carpets need a deep cleaning. Quite pricey for a room looking out into a dark alley. Only a few sea facing, bright rooms. No ramp at hotel entrance, no help with bags up steep staircase. Definitely not 4 star, more 3.5
The location of the property was wonderful, making the palace and major sights easily walkable. The hotel staff were exceptionally attentive, knowledgeable, and hard-working. When our bathroom sink clogged, a staff member arrived immediately and replaced the pipe, fixing the issue within 20 minutes. The same gentleman also helped clear breakfast tables and tend to the outdoor flowers, showing an incredible work ethic shared by the entire team. Additionally, the breakfast buffet featured a great variety of fresh food, local delicacies, and excellent coffee, which we thoroughly enjoyed throughout our stay.
We enjoyed the spacious room, but the shower setup could use improvement. Due to the room's design, the shower curtain didn't reach edge-to-edge, and minimal floor slope led to water pooling around the toilet. Having to wipe up the floor and use a squeegee to clear water after every shower wasn't ideal, even though I recognize the unique layout limits full coverage options. It was a shame that the pillows had a persistent musty smell. Swapping them for fresh pillowcases didn't help, as the odor was coming from the pillow itself.
Beliggenhet i gamla stan og sjøutsikten
Den var mycket bra
Rummet
Sehr gute Lage, gemütliche Betten, sehr leckeres und vielfältiges Frühstücksbüffet, Nachmittags Kaffe / Tee und Gebäck. Wasserkocher, Tee und Kaffee auf dem Zimmer.
Bei offenem Fenster etwas laut, dh Ohropax ist sinnvoll dabei zu haben, wenn man einen leichten Schlaf hat.
Location, location, location
No AC, a bit loud with the windows open. It’s a bit of a maze due to the age/historic nature of the building(s). If you’re not aware it’s a little bit of an adjustment.
Lokalizacja, śniadania
Hałas na zewnątrz oraz w nocy na korytarzu
Brilliant location and outstanding breakfast
Excellent choice for the breakfast
The location was excellent, right in Gamla Stan and within walking distance of many of Stockholm’s main sights.
Unfortunately, the room had a very strong and unpleasant smell of cleaning products, which made it uncomfortable to stay in. The bathroom was also quite noisy. A drain pipe from the neighbouring room apparently runs through our bathroom, so whenever the neighbours used water, we could clearly hear it gurgling through the pipe. The biggest disappointment was breakfast: I found a hair in my omelette. After that, I simply didn’t feel like continuing my breakfast. Taken together, these issues were not what we expected from a 4-star hotel, especially considering the price.
Jeg likte denne stilen på et hotell meget fine rom, kjempe god frokost i svært spesielle omgivelser, Gir et svært godt inntykk av hele oppholdet. Vi var meget fornøyde.
広く清潔で、場所も旧市街に有り、観光に便利だった。船乗り場もすぐ近くに有り、何処に行くのも便利だった。朝食も美味しかった。
部屋の扉が開けにくかった。
Loved the view. Drinks in our lobby were a nice touch. Breakfast was excellent!
Nothing I can think of.
Toppen läge med gångavstånd till allt! Priset var okej till det läget, till en bra frukost och ett fungerande rum. Det var toppen att de kunde tillgodose mat preferenser på frukosten.
Generell städning var okej men detaljer var inte gjorda. Alla lampknapparna var snuskiga! Dörren på badrummet behövdes städas bättre eftersom det är mot den handdukar hänger. Annars var det enligt vad som kan förväntas. Det saknades ordentliga krokar i badrum för handdukar, det fanns inte en enda permanent utan det var en provisorisk hängare över dörren.
Top Lage
Frühstück im Keller, sehr beengt
πολυ καλο πρωινό. κ ηταν μεσα στο κεντρο.
οτι δεν είχε ντουλαπα. κ δεν είχε παντόφλες μιας χρήσης.
We asked for 3 rooms near to eachother - the rooms were incredible, especially 502...it's on the 3rd floor and the views were picture perfect with a dual front over the larger islands.
Nothing - it has character and charm.
La ubicación, todos los lugares de interés están a unos minutos de paseo. La cama es muy cómoda, el hotel es tranquilo, y el desayuno es muy completo con mucha variedad.
La habitación es amplia, pero el paso por los pies para el lado de la cama junto a la ventana es muy estrecho.
Everyone was super friendly. The breakfast was delicious. The location was perfect to explore the old town.
Fantastic breakfast. Helpful and friendly staff. Great location
Otimo cafe da manhã, limpeza
Nada
Location is fantastic. Easy to get around. The staff is friendly. They have a great breakfast available. Rooms are dated but clean.
The bathrooms are small with no counter space. Showers have a small glass partition that does nothing to stop water from getting everywhere. There was a unpleasant smell (coming from the pipes I think) on the last night that made it hard for me to fall asleep.
Första gången vi bor på detta hotell och är mycket nöjda. Vi återkommer gärna. Läget mycket bra och frukosten var perfekt.
Skøt værelse, god udnyttelse af pladsen, god morgenmad - dejligt med havregrød God ide med vejrudsigt i elevatoren
Clean and centrally located. A great place to make a base for travel around Stockholm. The breakfast, which is included with the price of the stay, was excellent.
The rooms were small and the bathrooms were minuscule, making for an uncomfortable experience. One of our rooms had a few broken amenities - the hooks in the bathroom, for instance. Also the beds are SMALL.
Elke dag spontaan propere lakens en handdoeken. Lekkere koekjes aan het onthaal. Koffie en thee steeds beschikbaar.
Lavabo liep niet door maar was na 1 dag verholpen
Super Unterkunft, sehr zentral gelegen, Personal ist sehr zuvorkommend, und das Frühstücksbuffet ist sehr vielfältig, große Auswahm
Fantastic location next to see and old town shops
Very noisy on the seafront on Friday night
The rooms smelled nice, the breakfast was delicious, we felt like at home since we could always have complimentary cup of tea or coffee at the lobby.
The curtains were dusty
Great location and very quaint
Η θέση του
Το δωμάτιο ήταν μικρό..
Super emplacement face à la mer et dans la vieille ville. Bon niveau de confort. Bon petit déjeuner.
Beaucoup d'escaliers mais peu d'assistance du personnel.
Läget var väldigt bra! Sängen var skön.
Fick rum högst upp. Snedtak, slog huvudet i takbjälkarna flera gånger. Dålig standard på badrummet; väldigt litet, vattnet rann ut genom springan vid dörren som hade svällt av fukten. Inte fräscht med heltäckningsmatta.
Beliggenheten
Manglet speil og leselys i 2 etg
Frukosten var under förväntan då jag hört att den skulle vara bra. Mycket turister så förståelse att det var mycket att göra. Råvarorna var medel (danskt rågbröd jättegott, scrambled eggs mindre bra). Jag upplevde personalen som stressade och fick en känsla att det beror på kulturen på hotellet, men jag kan ha fel.
Stämningen på hotellet.
L’emplacement dans la ville
Chambres trop petites
super petit déjeuner , personnel très agréable, très bon emplacement dans la vieille, à proximité de tout , bon accueil, bonne literie
Nous vous eu une chambre de très petite de taille ( le bout du lit à environ 30 cm du mur) et très très bas de plafond, nous pouvions le toucher en levant les bras donc plus de 1m90, s'abstenir en tout cas pour notre chambre ! Nous l'avons dit lorsque nous sommes arrivés mais cela paraissait un peu compliqué de changer donc nous sommes restés. Dommage vu le prix par nuit .
Dejligt hotel, god morgenmad, meget hjælpsomt personale. Tæt på tourbåde og tourbusser.
Gadelarm indtil midnat, men det skal man jo forvente i så stor by.
Petit déjeuner top, emplacement central qui permet de rayonner dans toute la ville , même à pied
La déco mais la literie est excellente !
Excelente service. All people super friendly and helpful. Clean and cozy. Great location
All was pretty good
Exzellente Lage, schönes Haus

Disco music was heard from somewhere nearby on Saturday-Sunday night until 1.30 am.
Well located but the rooms and service are below average
The bedroom the service
Ottima posizione
Il bagno
La posizione e la simpatia del personale della reception. Colazione eccezionale: varia e ricca.
Nulla: è andato tutto bene.
Localisation exceptionnelle idéal pour visiter Stockholm à pied. Propre. Chambre pour 3 spacieuse.
Nous avons demandé une chambre pour 3 personnes avec 3 lits, un des lit était un canapé lit dont le matelas aurait mérité un peu plus de confort.
Great location. Good breakfast
My room was the smallest room I have ever been in. Less than 8’ wide The bathroom was so small the towels were kept on the beds. I wasn’t trying to save money and would have gladly paid for a bigger room I would stay there again but would definitely get a different room
Everything:). The location is amazing, breakfast perfect, people at the reception very friendly.

Sijainti
Huoneen siivous. Löytyi edellisten asiakkaiden tavaraa. Sukat, kasvomaski.
Nära allt i Gamla stan o fint läge
Att toadörren inte gick att öppna helt utan slog i i taket …
Historiskt läge, 10+ att man kunde föra sitt bagage till hotellet redan på morgonen, frukosten mångsidig och jätte god, personalen var jätte trevlig.
Posizione e colazione.
Camera posizionata in un ammezzato. Non adeguata a categoria 4 stelle né a catena best western. Tenda doccia di stoffa, non adeguatamente separata da lavandino. Bagno piccolo. Mancanza di cuffia per la doccia.
Location. Breakfast.
The bed.
Hotel położony w sercu miasta, blisko do głównych atrakcji (muzea, zabytki). Czysto, przyjemnie, bardzo pomocny personel, świetne śniadania, zero stresu. "Fika" w całej okazałości :)
The location is so so beautiful and the property is clean. Breakfast is good.
We were offered a corner room with lower ceiling touching the floor almost at one side which made the room even more congested. It has become so difficult for us to even open the suitcase. Although we have informed to give us a better room, it has been postponed everyday.
Läget och sängarna. Väldigt välstädat!
Hörde in väl från gatan utanför.
Well maintained and furnished in good taste
The people, the location & the room with a view! Super visit in Stockholm & area! 💙🇸🇪💛
Great location, friendly staff, lovely breakfast!
Ottima colazione, ottima posizione, stanza adeguata
Totale mancanza di set di cortesia in bagno, tende in velluto che lasciavano filtrare la luce al mattino
Todo. Muy buena ubicación y desayuno. Muy recomendable.

Bra läge! Nära Gamla Stan, slottet och Slussen. Trevliga rum.
Lite trångt vid frukosten.
Perfekt beliggenhet og koselig ærverdig hotell🤩
Petit déjeuner excellent Emplacement excellent, centre ville
