Good location close to old Town
Pros:

Great location and good breakfast

Cons:

There was no air conditioning and we visited in June. Weather very hot. There was a fan in the room. On the day we were leaving the lift was broken and we had to bring our luggage down a narrow spiral stairs

Elegant boende i Gamla Stan!
Pros:

Mycket bra boende med perfekt läge i Gamla Stan, och intilliggande stadsdelar. Äldre byggnad med fina detaljer bevarade. Känslan av hotellkedja märks inte. Stort och bra rum med gott om plats för extrasäng. Riklig frukost i härlig källarmiljö.

Pros:

Frukostbuffén var jättebra och personalen var jätte trevlig och hjälpsam. Trevliga lokaler, det bjuds på iste och kaffe i foajén. Vatten och kakor med. Fanns 2 st fläktar inne på hotell rummet, perfekt i värmen.

Cons:

Vi fick ett rum på vinden, det var väldigt stort. Barnen tyckte det var lite läskigt med en stor branddörr inne i rummet. Man ska inte klaga men rummet var för stort, dom kunde inrett rummet med en soffa så hade rummet varit trevligare och inte känts för stort. Annars var det ett väldigt trevligt hotell och fräscht.

Perfekt beliggenhet.
Pros:

Beliggenheten, stort rom, hyggelige ansatte, god frokost og god pris.

Cons:

Frokosten ble servert i kjelleren. Der var det trangt og ikke enkelt og finne ledige bord. Men utvalget mat/drikke var veldig bra.
