Amazing place for staying while traveling

Reviewed By sweredom

Nice place to stay, it was clean, well connected to the other parts of the city, affordable. Beds were comfy, with usb charger sockets included. Traveled with 2 friends, took 4 bed room which was the same price as for 3 person room, which is nice if you are traveling with 3 friends. I think the place can get a bit pricey closer to the travel date, so my sugesstion is to always book early. Overall amazing quality for the money spent.

Stayed in private room. Excellent attitude from workers and cosy, unique and inspiring varied retro style inside. Lots of little features to be inspired by. A little worn obviously, just as it should be. Maybe the tiles could be taken care of a bit more in the bathrooms. Other than that, a hostel with interesting personality. Makes people happy and relaxed.

Hotel Gamla Stan, BW Signature Collection/Hotel Gamla Stan

Hotel Gamla Stan, BW Signature Collection is a unique and charming boutique hotel in the heart of Stockholm’s Old Town that offers elegant and luxurious accommodation. It was refurbished and reopened in 2018. The hotel is housed in three different buildings dating from the 17th century and maintains original details from the past. Some rooms offer a spectacular view of the water while others look onto the narrow cobblestone alleys and historical buildings. The painted ceilings, original beams and Stockholms oldest wrought iron staircase have been preserved. The hotel is a waterfront property, situated on Skeppsbron, overlooking Lake Mälaren. Hotel Gamla Stan, BW Signature Collection is 250 metres from the Royal Palace and within walking distance to most tourist attractions. Tour buses and boats are just nearby. Stockholm Central Station, Stureplan Square and the vibrant Södermalm district are all within 15 minutes’ walk.

Great Experience!

Reviewed By madisonless0

The hotel was great! They had an amazing breakfast included with the room and the location is perfect to explore all of Stockholm. Literally right on the water so there are also amazing views. Also, right in the old city so very close to many cute restaurants and shops. Short walk to Sodermalm and Ostermalm area which is also very convenient. The staff are friendly and accomodating.

Jumbo Stay

We are the only hotel located inside a real authentic Boeing 747, Jumbojet. The aircraft was first flewn in 1976. Last journey was from Dublin to Stockholm in 2002. We have a nice wing walk / terrasse on the left wing, perfect for plane spotting. Our bar and cafe are open for everyone all days in the week.

Be prepared for turbulance

Reviewed By Laura Lynne T

I booked this as part of. larger trip and love staying in unique places. As far as unique goes this gets 5 stars. I booked the cockpit and was surprised to know that the entire upper level was mine. Being able to walk out on the wing of a plane is also cool. The bed was comfy as well. The reason I gave it only three stars is due to the amenities. It took 2.5 hours and an angry phone call that I had to pay for to contact reception. In the meantime I had to use my data to get communication. If a site is not going to have on site representation they should join 2022 and at least be on whatsapp or have their own app to reach someone. Another guests and I were talking about how we kept being told to " call the number" despite repeatedly stating we did not buy a specific Swedish sim card. There is also no elevator as advertised. I was lucky there was someone there to carry them up to the cockpit, but in the am the cleaning person was too busy to help. They advertise a cafe, but don't be fooled. Eat at the airport before heading there as there are only a few beverages to buy. The breakfast may have been gone by the time I went down at 9am for all that was there was some bread, jam and a few questionable cold cuts. This is a far cry from a cafe....unless they were trying to be in theme of airplane food which is minimal at best. On my way out another guest also commented that he thought it was a horrible hotel. The bus ride is efficient, and the experience unique and that is the selling point. In the end, sure stay here, but just be aware of what you get and what is on paper only.

Interesting but small museum

Reviewed By Daniel M

The prison museum was very interesting and was a nice 30-40 min walk from Gamla Stan to get there. Museum was small but good to see the cells and also had a look at the hostel and was shown a former cell (now a single room with bunk bed). Looks like a lovely place to stay

DON’T GO HERE IF YOU’RE NOT A MIDDLE AGED MAN

Reviewed By TravellingEUtoday

First of all they told us the wrong bus route from the central station. We arrive and the lift is broken and we had to walk to the 8th floor where the steps are very narrow. Rooms too cramped and security codes basically accessible for everyone at the hostel to enter your room. There was also someone assigned to my bed and no staff around to remedy this. No staff to be seen apart from 9-11am. There are only three lockers for a 6 bed room and they’re get narrow. No socket outlets for some beds very inconvenient. Two toilets available for many people in the hostel and one was broken/out of order. Then they supposedly “fixed it” but there was still urine all over the floor and it’s a “no shoe hostel”. Kitchen smelt bad Showers are ridiculous as no where to put your items without them getting wet. Lots of middle aged men walking around in their underpants. Weird purple lighting which induced headaches WIFI IS AWFUL The only positive I can think of is the view. 0/10 wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone who’s young or female

I recommend you not to stay here. Bad attention, they dont answer calls or messages. I asked for Late Check In and they left us one night without entering the hotel. Stay away from this place, this will only lead to a horrible experience.

Maby Park

Never had such a terrible night!

Reviewed By Blondie0911

At the beginning they didn’t respond for over 2 weeks to my questions. As I finally arrived I was early, I knew that. Then the reception guy told me I didn’t pay, what I did thru Booking.com. So as I got back, on time, everything was fine and most important: payed. Sleeptime, well, usually I have a good sleep... but the walls are like paper. I woke up every time a door closed. But worst: the exit door in the back right next to my room/bed. So I went to the reception and asked for an another room. Nope, the HOTEL OWNER told me that he never wanna see me again as well as he’d like to throw me out. I ended the conversation with: I should sue you! However, if you wanna have a good sleep, don’t stay there! There are many lovely hotels in the area, even cheaper and free breakfast.

Give me my money back

Reviewed By Veronica5577

I booked 2 nights in March of 2020 to attend to a concert in Stockholm. But it turned to be the first lock-down because of the Covid19, and the concert was suddenly cancelled, and the flights too. I contacted several times with the hostel to explain the situation, but they refused to reimbourse my money, even when I couldn't go because of a reason which was not a decision of mine. 2 years later the hostal still doesn't give my money back. So I will denounce this establishment, as I've been informed that I have the right to get it back, same as the airways had to do it because of judges decision. I won't stop till you refund my money.
