Very cool place to stay. I had a hostel room, very affordable. And the breakfast buffet was excellent! Being able to sit on the bow of the ship to enjoy the morning coffee was a plus

Shower was a bit small for my big back. Walking distance to gamla stan. Close to subway. Great photos. Breakfast was good.

I am very happy with my stay at the red boat. The location is perfect. We can see the boat the moment that we leave the metro station. The old town is few minutes walking. The view is amazing. Personal welcoming and happy to assist.
Ines, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Our room was small but they do offer luggage storage if you want to unpack more, and have more room. Beds were comfortable. Bit more noise from being on sidewalk side. Shared bathrooms were always available. Staff were super helpful and friendly. Breakfast was really nice and worth paying for. Would stay again but would pay for one of the rooms with private bathroom as someone who has to go early in the morning! 😉

Loved it

A unique experience worth to be lived
Yasmine, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Shared bathroom facilities were kept mostly clean. Other guests could be very noisy though. I spent a week here and my room was never turned over, nor was my towel ever replaced.

8/10 Very good

Very good location, walkable to the Gamla Old town and train. The view from the boat is spectacular especially at sunset and night time. Breakfast at the boat is reasonable price. The Thai restaurant on a boat next door is convenient and their food is so good. My one and only complaint was the smell in one of our rooms. We rented two rooms.
Josephine, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Perfect for a short stay; great buffet breakfast; 10 min leisurely walk to The Old Town (Gamla Stan).

Paul, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Quirky, lovely view, convenient.
Katharina, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Staff is great and boat is funky, but it’s a boat: tight quarters, stuffy air, and, yes, it rocks a lot. If you’re prone to seasickness (like me) I do not recommend. If not, it’s fun for a couple of nights…no more.
Thomas, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A room on the boat is really fun and it is located conviniently near the city centre. And, the prices are very competitive.
Piotr, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Quaint property that feels like a true inn of days gone by.
Timothy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I like it the view and safe areas. Staff are nice. Close to station and market. Walk able on the sea.
sakar, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I stayed in the admiral cabin which is the biggest room on the boat. The red boat featured on the booking is not the actual boat we stayed on, the cabin in located on a white boat next to the red boat. The cabin has amazing views and I liked it had its own shower and toilet. I slept really well in the twin (pushed together into a double) bed. The cabin has a tv, large wardrobe and coffee making facilities. Over all, I really enjoyed my one night stay here. Their could be noise issue if the cabins above were occupied by noisy guests as the cabin isn’t soundproof and people moving around the boat can be heard throughout the cabin.
