The location .. nearby the Bus N° 65 next door... beautiful surroundings... Excellent staff.... The children were over the moon... Great amenities... Rather cheap for Stockholm... but nothing is a giveaway... Do NOT go for dinner in Stockholm.. all prices all multiplied per five !!! Choose the buffet lunches instead rather affordable....

Hi, When you made your reservation you received a booking confirmation to your mail with all the information you need to know and edit your reservation.

If force majeure / forced circumstances is not applicable, we will not be able to refund you but you can check with your travel insurance or home insurance to see if they can cover the cost.

Hallo :), we are 7 persons and planning to stay in your hotel for 4N in the end of July. Is it possible to have one room for 7 persons? Thanks :)!

The largest rooms we have are 6-bedded. If you are staying in the house, we may be able to put an extra bed in a 6-bedded room but on the boat extra beds are not allowed for fire security reasons.

Hi, if we are three persons and take 4 bed room, will there be another person asigned to our room? Thank you!

If you book a "room" or "cabin", this room will always be private no matter how many persons you enter on the booking. You only share with others if you book the alternative labelled "dorm bed", in this case you will stay in a shared 6-bedded room.
