Good location and friendly staff. For sure will stay here again… on my next visit. Walking distance to all attractions.
SwedenClean and fresh. All area immaculately cleaned and tidy. Room for 4 was perfect for our family (2parents, 2 kids). Location is excellent - perfect for museum and only short walk to the town center. Public car parking 5-10 mins walk only cost 40sek for 12 hours.
SwedenClose to all the attractions. Interesting building and history behind it.
SwedenEverything. Easy to find and the rooms were so quiet and the bed and pillow were comfortable. I had a really good night's sleep. I like the history behind the Kronohäktet and the idea of staying overnight in the prison was interesting. Atmosphere was so relaxing, they even have books and puzzles for when it is not great weather outside. Very clean, although other guests should clean up after themselves and consider others staying there. I wished I could have stayed for longer. Will definitely come back! Stina was friendly and helpful. Had organised my room key to be in the box outside incase I arrived after reception opening hours. Loved the idea of having a fridge in the room. Easy to walk in to town but there is also an ice cream cafe nearby. Lovely surroundings by the water to walk around.
SwedenVery clean and well renovated place with stunning history makes it a unique experience in the heart of the city by the sea.
