Nice, fun, interesting place to stay on the Stockholm harbour. Staff is very friendly. Room is quite small for price. Shower is very small for a normal sized person. Room cool, and took a while to warm up. Not very convenient to walk to.
This place is such a gem! The location is great. It’s an easy and quick walk to Gamla Stan. The rooms are very cozy; I loved listening to the rain on the water. We shared a shower/bathroom with others on our floor and it was clean, no issues there. Breakfast is worth the price and the dinner options are yummy. We also had a great time talking to the front desk staff each night. They were very sociable!
I booked a cabin on The Red Boat for a week stay in Sweden and used it as a home base while touring the country.
It was perfect for this purpose. It is within a short walk to Gamla Stan Metro stop as well as a short walk to other attractions.
The best way to describe this lodging experience is Maritime Rustic Hostel.
It is not posh or fancy, but provides basic accommodations with helpful staff. The cabin, bathroom, showers and common areas were clean and warm (stay was in November).
I would stay at The Red Boat again.
If you plan to book here, have realistic expectations and you will be satisfied.
We were allocated a room on the boat next door to the red boat.
Good points:-
Cheap
Not to far from public transport
Negative points:-
No additional facilites like common space if you are not on the red boat itself
Only 2 toilets, which were up staris, so they layout was not great.
The showers were very small, better use could have been made of the space.
Overall the stay was ok, but the layout needs some changes to make it more comfortable.
We thought it was going to be a unique experience - you know staying on a boat. It was cool at first, but everyone shares a bathroom. We went to go use the toilet and someone had peed all over the floor and toilet seat. It was so noisy, there was drunk people talking at all hours of the night and screaming and laughing in the hall. We couldn't call the night security cause our phones where on airplane mode and we didnt want to be charged. Basically got no sleep, but I guess you get what you pay for.
This boat hotel has a lovely vintage style from the moment you walk in with it's beautiful wooden interior and wonderful decor. The room was cozy, clean and warm, and although we slept on a bunk bed it was surprisingly very comfortable. In terms of the location, it is perfectly situated in the center of Stockholm city with close walk to coffee shops and main attractions. The only small disadvantage is having to share toilets and bathrooms, which you would expect from a small boat, but otherwise the stay was very comfortable and we barely felt the boat rocking as the waters were very calm. Staff were very friendly too and we got along with them, so overall it was a great stay!
Cabin got very warm as window didn't open, although there was an opening pothole in the ensuite. Staff were helpful. Access interesting with suitcases!
