Rygerfjord Hotel & Hostel

The "hotel" is actually made up of three boats moored alongside each other. Only one boat has facilities for eating and drinking which means a bit of a trek in the rain if you are in boats 2 and 3. It is quite easily accessible and easy to find from the main town centre and railway station - just follow the bridges across the river which takes 20 to 25 minutes (or use public transport, especially if you don't enjoy walking over cobbles!) The room had a bunk bed with, luckily, lighting and power close by (not always the case) and the boat had numerous showers and toilets which were shared (split between male and female units) All in all, an interesting way to spend a couple of nights on board a boat without actually going anywhere...

I loved staying on a boat and the location was percent. The views were amazing.

I loved it— it fit our needs well and was a unique experience. The room was teeny tiny, but that’s as advertised. It’s not shiny or glamorous, but that’s to be expected for the price. The only surprise was when we opened the windows, a lot of spiders crawled in. The flyers at the reception desk were extremely helpful. The walking tour we took was phenomenal and we used the the discount code to go kayaking, and it was very fun!

Cleanliness

My cabin was very comfortable, and although I had never stayed on a boat before, I absolutely loved it. The duvet was very nice, the pilllow was a little flatter than average, but very comfy. Great views from the windows, both in my cabin and the communal kitchen and dining area. Nice to mix with other travellers in the well-equipped kitchen. The showers were good with plenty of space. I usually cooked for myself but I tried the breakfast and it was really excellent - so much choice and as much as you wanted to eat and drink. A short walk from Mariatorget subway station, and not that far to walk into Gamla Stan.

Everything was good. The boats are a bit old but the room was sparkling clean and the location is unbeatable.

Very reasonable for the location, not luxury, but a wonderful change of pace staying on a boat. Great views and the Thai restaurant was very good, I recommended sitting in the life boat if the weather is good. Cosmetically the boats need a little refresh, but that did not detract from our stay.

The view on our room is amazing. The room is big and plenty of space. The common kitchen is perfect if you want to make your own breakfast.

Not that far from main attractions, but expect at least a good 15 minutes walk to find shops and restaurant or the metro. Small cabin but lovely, great atmosphere, cozy and friendly
