Comfortable space and extremely close to the Viking terminal. Very interesting history that was reflected well in the renovation of the building. Good food. Would definitely return.
Our stay was incredible. Our room was beautiful, the staff were really friendly and the perks of free breakfast and dinner was fantastic. Not only that, but it has a great location and right by a tram stop with 10 minutes into town if not quicker. Great stay!
This is a very unusual hotel, being situated i an old jail. It conserves the main features of the jail but is very warm, welcoming and modernised. Very helpful staff.
Best feature is the excellent buffet dinner and breakfast included in the very reasonable price.
There is a tram stop immediately outside and it is also a short walk to the Viking terminal for the ferry to Stockholm.
We stayed 2 nights, hotel room was a big but couldn’t open the windows.
Breakfast was delicious with many selections, we didn’t have fika & dinner.
Hotel location was about 30 minutes walk from city center.
We will definitely stay there again!
This has been the best hotel I've stayed (3rd week in May) at in the 10 years I've been traveling to Europe. From the immaculate room, the delicious breakfast & dinner selections, the helpful staff, & the convenient location, this hotel is beyond awesome!
I've never stayed at a place like this before & I booked it 6 months before for its historical significance, but it has blown away.
I only regret that I didn't stay longer! Every hotel should be like this! Thank you!!!
The breakfast menu was excellent with more than 20 items available. There is a super market about 500 meters away where you can pretty much get anything from bread, snacks to alcohol.
Great location. Quiet. Comfortable beds. Nice design in an old prison built in the 1800’s. The free food had gluten and lactose free options like sautéed vegetables, beans, eggs, sausages, salads, fruit. You can walk to many attractions but the tram stops right in front of the hotel. I bought the ABC ticket on Tram#4 for €4.8 and the same ticket worked on the train “I” all the way to the airport. Took about an hour but it was very relaxing and comfortable.
Impossible to fault. Staff, food and rooms all incredible. Made us feel right at home. Sauna was great too
