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.

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.

What a wonderful view of the water. The ferries were right out our hotel door. The hotel was very old but well kept. There were a lot of stairs to get up to our room. I definitely would suggest a balcony.

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).

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.
