Loved this hotel. It’s small and quaint which is what I like. We were a family of 4 and the breakfast is fantastic and outside garden area. The bed for my 2 older sons was a bit small so next time I will write 4 adults but the main bed was huge and comfy.

We have stayed here before and returned because we like it! The staff are super helpful and the breakfast is good. The street is quiet but very close (walkable) to the downtown, Haga, and Kungsportsavenyen and the Poseidon statue and art/performance venues.
