This is a wonderful, cozy, small hotel. It's located within walking distance of everything, and very reasonably priced. The front desk staff were very kind and helpful. Our rooms were facing the front street (vs the more scenic back cathedral view), but it was still very quiet. Also, the 2nd and 3rd floors have a couple of small lounge areas, and a cute tiny outdoor balcony facing the cathedral, in addition to a larger rear patio area. Even though it's a smaller hotel, there is an elevator for those who need it, and even a small fitness room with sauna. Main reception area has a lounge with several toilets as well. We thought it was charming to see the staff picking wildflowers outside for the tables. The staff does leave at 10pm and return early in the morning for breakfast, but that wasn't an issue for us at all. Breakfast buffet had some vegan options which I greatly appreciated. While the common areas are air conditioned, there isn't air conditioning in the rooms, but a fan is provided, and we were comfortable, as the temperature was mild in mid June. I would definitely stay here again if I return to Uppsala.

Beautiful hotel

Had a great stay for a week long meeting being held at the old main academic building at the University of Uppsala. That's about a two minute walk from the hotel. My room was on the upper floor, clean and tidy, a bit small, but just slept there and not much else. Breakfast daily was excellent with fresh bread, and good coffee. Staff was super friendly.

This was a wonderful and romantic stay, my husband and I had an amazing time. The view of the church from our room was stunning, and the restaurant on the corner had the most amazing fish and chips I've ever had! The hotel staff were very nice, and the rooms were clean and comfortable. 10/10 would recommend.
