The boats were so cozy and comfortable, and everything was beautifully clean. We were made to feel at home from the moment we checked in. And if you’re lucky enough to have a cabin that faces the water, the view is extraordinary.

Very friendly & funny staff, the coziest lobby I've ever sat and read in, and a great time all around! I will never be the same after sitting for an hour or two, listening to the rain gently patter outside as I read a an old book and drank a Mariestads in the soft glow of the lamps. My wife and I stayed in the captain's cabin and loved it. Great sleep, good shower, and very clean cozy accomodations.

Fun place to stay—it’s exactly what it sounds like: cabins on a small boat, so these are not the most spacious rooms, but it is an enjoyable stay regardless. It is very close to the train station, walkable from the hotel. The staff is very friendly and helpful (and funny!) I would absolutely stay here again the next time I come to Stockholm.
