    Small, charming old hotel in great location but needs some refurbishment.

    The facilities need some replacement/refurbishment e.g. pillows & bedding, sink drains need clearing, towelrail electrics, cracked stairs etc. Due to the age of the property, the ensuite shower is very small with a nylon curtain around and really needs a redesign. Steep spiral staircase up to rooms making it unsuitable for anyone with poor mobility or bad knees/legs.

    Great location in Gamla Stan (the old town) and between 2 of the main streets for restaurants and shops. Hotel in old building (1607) with lots of character. Very friendly, helpful staff. Excellent breakfast.

    Beds are too soft, and only one pillow (and very small) available. I guess I should have asked for one more the second night, but maybe should be available from the get go? Bathroom is terrible, when you shower everything gets wet. Very old building (which makes the place quaint and interesting), so everything is narrow and tight?

    Location is unbeatable, and staff is the nicest. Breakfast was great.

    We managed the stairs but might be tough for older people. However the staff will always be ready to help.

    Excellent location and very clean. Staffs were very friendly and made our stay comfortable. Close to a lot of tourist attractions, shopping and restaurants. 3 minutes walking distance from the Royal Palace. Breakfast is very good too.

    There was a bit of outside noise due to location in old town. Early morning garbage collection and leaf blowing.

    Stairs if you're on the top floor, somewhat challenging if you have large cases. We did know this however beforehand. And also, quite pricey, mainly due to the location. Nightlife noise also, but again, to be expected.

    Location. Perfect for old town. Walk out the door, and you are straight into the centre of the shops and restaurants.

    Nothing. Stay exactly like this, be original.

    If you have been to a million dull hotels, pick this one. It’s like living in a museum, it has character, and I simply love the pragmatism and trust in how they manage access. Bed & bathroom adds fine comfort to the old but well-kept rooms, I slept like a child. The sound insulation between floors is 1600s style, so you might hear neighbours walking above you, but in a hotel this tiny people are considerate. Location perfect, but not if you have difficulties moving or bring lots of heavy luggage. When I come back I’ll stay here and laugh at Sheraton across the bridge, an over-priced mausoleum.

    Note that the spiral stairs are narrow and steep due to the nature of the historic building.

    Location is wonderful, right in the heart old city on a lovely narrow street. Exudes a wonderful sense of history. Very quiet with our windows closed, even though the streets are busy in the summer with outdoor dining and strolling.

    Nothing wrong at all.

    Right in the heart of Gamla Stan the old town. Walkable to many locations and the metro and ferry. The host was amazing. Very helpful and friendly. Nice for a chat. Very tasty and varied breakfast. The breakfast room can be used by guest throughout the day and there are drinks, fruit and pastries available. Waking up to the smell of bread and cake baking downstairs just wonderful. Just one thing to consider if you have mobility issues like me to ask for a room on the first floor. As this is an old building there is no lift and a winding staircase with old steps. I managed, but should have thought about this before. The room itself was very spacious and comfortable.

    As many before have written: the stairs are challenging, but hey, the house is from the 17th century, so what do you expect? Of course you hear some noise when you are in the middle of the Old Town, I slept well all the same. Only point of complaint: the bathroom door was somewhat difficult to close.

    Very charming hotel in exceptionally good location. Within walking distance you can reach many points of interest like royal castle, heart of Gamla Stan, Riddarholmen, shopping areas, for all the rest you have an underground stop within 200 m. Very friendly staff - my friend has a gluten allergy, so for the next morning the nice lady from breakfast supplied her with gluten free bread and Muesli. The room was cozy and the beds very comfy. Bathroom: the shower being only secured with a curtain, I was afraid all would be completely wet after showering, but it worked out fine. All in all: no complaints.

    The hotel was unmanned for my stay, which happened to be from noon to morning. Breakfast was not until 8, which was a little late for me.

    Quaint and quirky ancient building, very charming and memorable. Climbing old stairs was required, so perhaps not for everyone.

    Not exactly a minus, but breakfast could use a slight more variety as it's exactly the same every morning. Nonetheless, it was in fact traditional swedish breakfast as far as i'm aware and everything was delicious so we weren't disappointed or something.

    Location is great: in the heart of Gamla Stan, metro stop is very near however you can easily walk everywhere as well. Room quite small, but super cosy, scandi style, minimalistic. Staff was lovely, very friendly and accomodating. Bonus was to be awoken every morning by the smell of freshly baked croissants! :)

    I didn’t love how cramped the bathroom was, but not the end of the world. You could definitely hear everything going on outside, but they provided ear plugs. I only stayed one night, I think if I had stayed longer these things may have bothered me.

    The property was the perfect location, very close to the train station, all the sites, and shops. The staff was really nice and welcoming, let me into my room to change since I was coming off a red eye even though the room wasn’t fully cleaned yet. They also took my luggage to my room
