Located in the centre of Stockholm’s medieval Gamla Stan quarter, these bright apartments are 3 minutes’ walk from the picturesque Stortorget Square. Apartments come with kitchen facilities and free Wi-Fi.

The property was beautiful and full of charm. Located in the historic Gamla Stan, it was the perfect location to enjoy everything Stockholm had to offer. Close to restaurants, cafes, and shopping. The apartment was immaculate and offered our party of four lots of room to spread out. The well-stocked kitchen was perfect for cooking and a little grocery store was within walking distance. Internet was great. Our hosts were great at communicating instructions and we appreciated the luggage storage available.

    The room was beautifully designed and very comfy. I had a little reading nook by my window and considering I booked one of the cheaper options available it did not feel like a budget room at all. It really felt like a lot of care was put into everything. Activities were always available, almost like a hostel atmosphere but with ten times the luxury. Honestly, it felt like the hotel itself could be a tourist attraction! The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the location is a two minute walk away from T-centralen so super handy!

    A lovely little hotel that follows the sea ship theme. The interior designer surely had some fun. The single room is small, but cleverly furnished, and so is the bathroom. The bed first looked narrow, but it actually wasn't. The location is the best in town, in the middle of a vibrant pedestrian street. The world famous Stampen (Pawnshop) jazz/blues bar is a few corners away. The staff was nice, friendly and smiling.
