Skeppsholmen Hotel

A stay at the Skeppsholmen Hotel is unlike any other hotel in Stockholm. No where else can you be so close to the centre of the city yet feel so far away. In fact the island, from which the property derives its name, is a tranquil green oasis that stands in complete contrast to the islands of Gamla Stan, Sodermalm and Djurgarden which surround it. It is this location which sets the hotel apart.

Housed within a listed 17th century military barracks, the Skeppsholmen Hotel has been tastefully decorated throughout by the award winning designer, Claesson Koivisto Rune. Cool greys and neutral colours add a Scandinavian feel to the guest rooms whilst in the public areas, light creams, natural wood and large windows allow the outside environment to flood in. Sit on the terrace on a fine day and enjoy the sea views.
 
A relaxing and personable property only 15 minutes walk from Gamla Stan, the Royal Palace and the departure piers for boats to the archipelago.
