This is a very unique little hotel sitting directly on the main Vaxholm ferry terminal. The building itself is historic (so, naturally, old) and no-frills, but it was clean, well-kept, and charming, and the staff were very friendly and responsive. I enjoyed sitting on my patio and looking out at the boats. The breakfast buffet had everything one could want. It felt very safe, as well.

Hotel sits right off the dock at Vaxholm where the ferrys come in, so very conveniently located.. stunning views for all rooms having little balconies.. hotel rooms and hallways charmingly laid out to look like you're on a ship.. breakfast is wonderful and restaurant on street level has excellent local menu.. great leap off place for day trips via ferrys to islands such as Grinda and Svartso (Vaxholm itself can be accessed by car, is much more built up and is much less rustic than those two islands).

Great hotel for its location but appears to have seen better days. Tv didn’t work and bed sheets had stains pointed these out on arrival but neither were fully addressed. Reception staff v pleasant. Room was only cleaned once during 5 night stay. Not great value for money but location for ferry and activities excellent.

The hotel was very, very clean and up. Kept for being over 300 years old. I love the building and the surrounding area. Every place in town was easily walkable. Plenty of activities to do water in front for water taxi's. Transportation to surrounding areas very easily accessible and very cheap using water. And buses for transportation.

Good, but not great

The hotel is close to the boat to Stockholm and close to many shops and restaurants, which is great. The staff was very polite, friendly and helpful. The room was cozy, with a great view to the harbour. It could have been a tad bit cleaner (especially the shower curtain), but overall good enough. The big downside, was all the noise. First from a local consert (the windows shivered) and then from the restaurant until 01 in the night. Which would be great to know about when checking in. The breakfast was decent enough, not too much, but they had waffles! I also heartily recommend their restaurant Verandan for a nice dinner with a stunning view! Overall; decent hotell on a great island.

Worth it for the view and convenience.

Clean room with a beautiful view of the Archipelago from the balcony. Rooms are small but adequate and there were no hot or cold drinks provided in the room. The bar below was VERY loud for an 80s event in the bar below but was over before we wanted to relax on the balcony in the evening. Overall I would say the price point is a bit high but the hotel’s position makes up for the other shortcomings. Breakfast was excellent.

The hotel is fairly nice, and should be a classy, tasteful place - but at nighttime it's very NOISY because the bar on the first floor operates until 0100 (at least...) with very loud rock music played at high volume. For both nights of my stay I had throbbing rock thumping in my room and I could not sleep until 0200. On Sunday morning it was only quiet for 5 HOURS 0200-0700. The staff arrived to set up breakfast and started playing loud music again! Another weird thing: there's a bar on the ground floor that's closed but the same music plays on speakers in the street full blast: it must be hell for the neighbours as well as the guests with rooms above. I do not understand the service ethos of this hotel. It felt like the bar was more important than the hotel guests, and that if you asked them to respect the hotel guests' right to a decent night's sleep they would ignore you. I had a miserable weekend here. Other problems: in a room that cost 3500 SEK/283 UKL/325 EUR per night, you would expect a safe, tea and coffee-making facilities and bottles of water: there were none of these basic amenities. We expected the housekeeping to make up the room at least once on the weekend and they failed to do so (we left the 'Please make up the room' tag on the door, a waste of time). The breakfast was okay. The dining room's kitchen was slow, but produced amazing food and the service was fairly attentive although the wait staff were embarrassed by the slow kitchen.
