Hotels near Flisberget

Nice house at the canal, very friendly host, good breakfast, nice surrounding

Beautiful cabins along the coast. The cabin was clean and the beds were comfy. The owners went out of their way to make our stay extra special. Look forward to returning sometime!

This was the perfect venue to explore the northern part of the Stockholm Archipelago. The guest house is located in the center of the historic fishing village of Grisslehamn, also the departure terminal of the ferry to the Åland Islands. The landmark building was purchased and carefully restored to period by the owner during the Covid-19 pandemic. It's clearly a labor of love, as the establishment invites the guests to information about the history of the village and offers particulars on a large array of activities from hiking, to kayaking or biking in the region. There is a distinct continental feel to the guest house, as the owner also has a connection to Tuscany, so food items from Italy and outstanding gelato are of the highest quality. The Pensionat website is far and above what you would normally see, as the owner is also a graphic designer.

First of all: Caterine's horses are amazing. I joined two rides and I was very well looked after. The best way to enjoy Sweden's nature! She and her team are also very kind and uncomplicated, what I appreciated a lot. I stayed at a twin room which was simple but comfy (I slept very good on the mattress although I have a sensitive back) and situated in a secluded building with shared kitchen, 2 bathrooms and a huge eating area where you can also hang around, play board games, plan your days etc. If you prefer to sit outside , there is also an area just in front with tables and chairs (and even a playground for kids). You can borrow sheets and towels (small fee). Everything was very clean. Maybe there are some "tools" missing in the kitchen, but it is sufficiently equipped and for this price totally fine. They provide everything necessary to clean up the dishes, which is not always the case in other places. I arrived by bus from Stockholm which is possible, but be aware they don't drive very often, especially during the weekend. I went swimming at the nearby, very attractive sandy beach and visited the small, but beautiful Fiskruddens Nature Reserve. There are also several signalled hiking routes (e.g. Kulturstig), but I didn't find out where they start :-D. A small supermarket is in only 8min walking distance. I found everything I needed for three days. Just don't forget to bring insect repellent in summer - as everywhere else in Sweden.

rustic cottage with a lovely garden

The house is located in a very beautiful place near fjord and surrounded by forest. The house itself is very neat, it has very nice interior and equipped very good. The host was great and contacted us prior and also on arrival.
