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.

Great menu!
We went for a weekend gettaway and overall we had a great experience. The hotel is very nice and cozy but some installations could be better (like new hair dryers and better sleeping pillows). The food was great though, we loved the small menu at the restaurant, the drinks and the breakfast).

Tired hikers with hopes for a relaxing sauna
Very nice hotel right at the harbour. We had booked three rooms. Two of them had harbour view with balcony, one to the back, unfortunately was the window blocked halfway by the wall of a service elevator. The hotel had advertised that it has a sauna and we really looked forward to after three days hike on a trail. When we arrived and checked in we were informed that the sauna was not turned on yet and also was block-booked by the hotels own spa. In other words it wasn't possible for guests to use the sauna at all unless by also booning a spa package. We would really encourage the hotel to look over the sauna / spa reservations. It shouldn't be possible to block reserve a feature that is advertised as one of the hotels ammendities.

No one at the reception upon arrival. No parking available at hotel event though website says so. Small room with weird layout. Nothing like the pictures. Nobody there to seat you at breakfast. The bed was nice and the room was clean but missed the charm and luxury of the images on the website.
