    Small rooms, not a lot of space and the bunk beds didn’t have any protection from not falling down and also very close to the ceiling so it was hard to get down. you couldn’t sit up straight because you would hit your head.

    Excellent location, friendly staff very helpful. Good stay for the experience. It was clean in the common bathroom.

    Would be nice to access a hair dryer on the same boat instead of having to go get it from the main boat, especially since it's so cold :) Challenging to get Uber here because of the location - just note you'll have to walk down to where cars can stop - they can't stop in front of the boat hotel because it's a main road. Difficult to get luggage down the steps on check-in. If you have just a small luggage or backpack it's easy though.

    I was really impressed with this hotel, honestly one of my favorite stays just for how unique, cozy and clean it was! 👏 It's a unique stay but also quite practical - the location is nice, you can walk to Gamla Stan easily and it's very pretty! The room is spacious, warm and cozy - the bed was very very comfortable! Appreciate that there is space to sit and big mirrors too. The common area on the main boat was also super cozy. Loved the views from the room. There boat didn't budge, it's calm and relaxing. Shared bathrooms were nice and clean. On the white boat where I stayed downstairs, one bathroom is nice and spacious. (The other one, the shower is too small, but still good for a boat) Great that they have locked luggage storage for guests who arrive before check in.

    The location was perfect since I was going to a fetish club event close to the hotel so two it was two minutes from the venue. Food was reasonably cheap, regular bar food with some vegetarian options. I tried the deal with 10 nuggets and a beer of choice for 149 sek and it was good. It is cosy, simple, cheap and comfortable so the perfect place for a weekend with friends or somewhere cheap to stay after a night out. Breakfast was good, egg, a small selection of bread, the regular assortment of toppings, hard boileg eggs, yoghurts and serial. It is not a big continental breakfast like on a Sheraton or Hilton hotel, but everything you need and a maybe a tiny bit more for resonable prices. Its a cosy boat with a 60ies movie atmosphere to it with somewhere around 20 small cabins. Close to 100years old and well maintained so the vintage feeling is intact. The size of the rooms are like on a holiday ferry, no more, no less but with a little bit cosier design since the boat You don't get your own shower in the room but will find shared bathrooms and showers at the end of the same corridor as the rooms. As good as you'll get in the price range.

    Breakfast was a bit underwhelming. You could hear your neighbours quite clearly through the walls. Top bunk bed quite close to the ceiling, so anyone over 5 foot needs to take care not to hit their heads.

    Staff were very friendly. Facilities were decent. It is close to the metro. It's within walking distance of shops and restaurants. Price was very reasonable.

    Nice romantic old fashioned place. You can feel like a sailor in the stories of Jules Verne after night in a cabin. Very good breakfast and helpful staff. I highly recommend it to feel the spirit of Stockholm.

    The floor in the room was really dirty and there was some water near the electronic heating system which didn’t feel secure.

    The location was good, the view was amazing, the Internet connection was smooth and fast. The bathroom was new, clean and comfortable. The service was really nice (we met three receptionists and all of them were very friendly and helpful).

    It’s a hostel basically, with shared showers and toilets. I had no problem with it but some other travelers may not like this arrangement so just bear that in mind.

    Location. Value for money. Staff very nice and obliging. Character of living on a converted boat just opposite the old city.

    Den röda båten was a great place to stay. We slept well in a cozy, clean room with a great view over the waters and to the city. It was very calming experience even though it's located next to Södermal and is only a bridge walk away from old town. Breakfast was good and staff very pleasant helping with all our questions and requests. I do recommend, great value and experience for the money, we are definitely coming back!

    The shower room flooded due to slow drainage! Also the beds were quite uncomfortable with a very thin mattress.

    Very good location, only a few mins walk from Gamla stan station and picturesque view from cabin window over the lake. The wifi connection was strong and reception staff were friendly.
