Hotel Sven Vintappare

The bathroom eas 6 ft x 3 ft which included a shower, 18 inches from the toilet with only a curtain. Interesting to say the least! People were extremely friendly.

The hotel is located in a 16th or 17th century building right in Gamla Stan, a very charming location. Noise from the streets can be an issue, however. The room was nice, but with a lot of stairs to climb. For elderly people, this would not be possible. For breakfast, you get very good quality bread, croissants and pastry, with good jams and a selection of some cheese and cold cuts. Also, coffee, tea, cappuccino etc. Unfortunately, on the second day, a different staff member, female, was in charge of breakfast. While her colleague was charming and service oriented, she was absent most of the time, did not even offer Cappuccino or other drinks. We assume she is also the person that forgot to put the keys in the rooms for later check-in (reception closed at 1 pm!) - meaning we stood in front of a locked door on the next day, and had to call for help. Overall, we expected more for the money that we spent.

The property was perfect, complete, warm and delightful, with an amazing breakfast.

We loved our stay! Fabulous location and the room had so much historic character but modern updates to make this perfect for us. The staff was friendly and helpful, even making us a bagged breakfast to go when we had to head to the airport super early our last morning. If I am ever lucky enough to be back in the area, I would look forward to staying with you again, thank you!

I love this hotel. We were on the 4th floor and yes we walked up those winding stairs and I loved it. To experience the history where so many have walked before me makes my heart swell. The room was cozy and comfortable, we slept with our window open, something we wouldn’t do at home and felt utterly safe and sound. Yes nighttime sounds are a bit noisy, but they provide earplugs and they work quite well and we could have shut our window. Breakfast was cereal, baked goods, boiled eggs and a breakfast charcuterie. Juices, yogurts, coffees and teas were provided and customized. The young women presiding over breakfast were lovely and accommodating. We spent three nights here and it was sublime. If you stayed longer it might get wearing taking the stairs. Our short stay was just right.

Charming hotel in the old town. The neighbourhood is a bit noisy till about 10/10.20 when it is the quietest. This is a true 1707 built Old Town experience, with wooden beams and winding small staircase. There is no lift so if you are not able to manage the stairs, this place isn’t for you. I really enjoyed the stay. Check in was about 30 seconds long, and the room was clean and comfy. It is central for the Old Town. The only criticism is that i wish the curtains were more blackout. In the summer it is still light and the curtains are too think for that. Breakfast was great and the staff are so friendly. I would stay there easily again.

This is not a hotel. It is an old building with bedrooms, more like an AirBnB. It does not hav a reception or any of the services that you normally find in a hotel. There was no breakfast (in the tiny breakfast room) when I left for work at 0715. Rooms are very loud. Sound proofing is nonexistent.

Amazing stay right in the heart of Gamla Stan. Yes it’s an old building and with that comes quirks but if you’re happy with that then go for it

16th century building so full of tiny twisted stair cases, sloping floors and twisted door frames. If you don’t want to carry bags up a narrow staircase or have a tiny bathroom or crooked floor then this is not the place for you. However if you want old world charm and uniqueness with lots of quirks with great comfort and location you just found it!! Right in the heart of Old Town up a narrow cobbled lane is a small doorway that leads to the very very small hall, no lobby just tiny steps up and stone ones down. Breakfast is also in a tiny room but is good with fresh breads and pastries, cheeses, meats and cereals. Great coffee too!! The staff are friendly and the rooms comfortable and beds comfy. Our bathroom in room 1 was tiny and its door frame was low but it was perfect once you’d hit your head once or twice as my husband of 5”9 did, 5”7 seemed ok to me!! Loved the place and would happily stay again.
