Gamla Stan Apartments

The location was excellent, and Synnöve was a lovely hostess. The apartment itself was everything that we would have hoped for. Highly recommend it if you want to stay in Stockholm.

Fantastic location! Easy to walk everywhere (all the big sights) and just steps to cross the street to a great waterfront bakery for breakfast! The apartment hard everything we needed.

The space to move around was a little tight with the sofa bed open. The stairs/steps to the loft bed were very narrow.

Amazing location, and a property with such style and character. Felt really relaxed straight away. Unique experience of a space from a different time.

A very spacious apartment, in a lovely old building, right in the heart of the old town (Gamla Stan), it was equipped with everything needed for a short stay, especially for travelers who might want to prepare their own meals. e.g.. full kitchen. Also there was a washing machine, iron and ironing board, tv etc. Homely feel, good heating. There were loads of very good restaurants, cafes etc. within close walking distance, as were there many good sites of interest to visit e.g. The Royal Palace, the Noble Museum.

As it's an old building, there is no lift, and a significant spiral staircase to climb to get to each apartment. For travelers with several or very heavy suitcases, this is challenging. It could be noisy at certain times of the day as other residents came and went, the noise of voices, doors slamming etc. echoing due to the nature of the hard tiled floors and stairwells. I found the bed to be very hard and uncomfortable, personally I like a less firm bed. The bathroom whilst functional, had a distinct smell of a smelly drain, the shower curtain smelled, and the shower tiles need a good clean with bleach.
