Hotel Sven Vintappare in Stockholm

We really loved our stay here, hotel history/restaurant dating back to 1607. Nice clean room on a small quiet street, centrally located on the old historic part of Stockholm. Breakfasts were lovely, we really enjoyed the ginger shots and smoothie shots at Breakfast. All the waitress staff each morning were very friendly, helpful, happy and the front person of the hotel. Highly recommend staying here. Would we come back , for sure ! Would we recommend, without hesitation ! Well done to the breakfast staff ladies especially Engla for making our stay all the more enjoyable.

Outstanding. Unique and charming in the Old Town of Stockholm. If you like to experience genuine history, this has a lot of it! Plus very friendly staff, thanks for making our stay memorable.

We absolutely loved our stay at Hotel Sven Vintappare. We could not have found a better location in central Stockholm to walk to most of the things we wanted to do. The staff was incredible and super helpful with questions and recommendations. Breakfast was so nice with fresh croissant smells wafting up to your room before you headed down to eat.

Two minor things to consider before booking a stay here:
1. There are steep, spiraling stairs to get to most rooms. Each floor only has 2 rooms so you may have a lot of stairs!
2. There is quite a bit of street noise since it is in the downtown area. The hotel provided ear plugs though and I used a noise machine that drowned most of it out.

Would absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Stockholm. Great location, charming and historic building, and friendly staff. The only thing I wish I had known before booking is that Ubers/Taxis cannot pull up to the hotel, so there is a bit of a walk. Not the hotel’s fault, just good to know beforehand. Thank you so much!

First of all if you are looking for a plastic & chrome hotel with all the whistles and bells then you won't find it here. If you are looking for a quaint, quirky, full of character cozy little hotel, then look no further.

Check-in is simple - a door-code (give the door a good shove as it has settled in its frame after all these years), wind your way up the stairs (and yes they do wind and they do creak) and there, hanging on a peg. YES a key! what a joy, and it is a proper key in keeping with the old building. There are 2 doors, one that only opens from the outside and one that only opens from the inside - worth remembering!.

Our room was lovely, a seriously sloping floor, a beamed ceiling, windows in 2 directions, comfy beds, 2 chairs and a table, a desk, a little closet. Lighting that could be adjusted, mock candles that flickered to add to the atmosphere. Small bathroom, but what can be expected in a building from a few centuries ago. The toilet worked, the shower was hot and powerful enough, the toiletries smelt nice and everything was provided including a water scraper to tend to the floor after showering.

Breakfast was good, fresh bread, croissants, eggs, juice, smoothie, ginger shots, yoghurt, cereal, tea and coffee. And no waft of bacon or badly scrambled eggs! Such joy. We were attended to by a young, cheery, helpful member of staff that made sure everything was provided. Yes the breakfast room is small but it is all part of the experience.

Overall we would, without a doubt, come back and we will recommend the hotel to a select few in order to keep it that little bit secret.

This accommodation deserves a 10 pm everything! Great staff! Great location! Spotless room, bathroom, dining room. Great breakfast. Everything is within reach and walkable. This is a charming old building in Gamla Stan (Old Town) just keep in mind, there’s no elevator.

Great location on Gamla Stan. Quaint rooms perfect if you’re into history and something different from standard boring hotel rooms. Good breakfast. Friendly staff.

Very nice, cosy and clean Hotel. Very friendly staff.

Excellent location in Old Town. Wonderful ambiance. Great breakfast. Very close to good restaurants and the waterfront. One caveat: the stairs are quite steep and challenging moving large luggage. Light travelers will have no problems. Highly recommend!

The staff was very pleasant and the room was very spacious. The location was spot on. The only thing was that the blind in the living room where I was sleeping was broken so the light from the sky was constantly shining through the window making it hard to sleep. Other than that, it was a great stay.
