“Best and most beautiful b&b I've ever went to. Stunning views. Friendly taxi boat who brought us back to Vaxholm in the morning a bit cheaper than the ferry we took the evening before.”
Eleni

“It’s really nice alternative hotel, in the castle. For one night it was really nice and had good variety of food in the breakfast. On the island it has a real interesting museum. If you have SL card you don’t need to pay for the boat from Vaxholm...”

“The location was amazing and the breakfast lovely. As we were the only people staying at the Kastellet, we didn't interact with staff (who left the keys and breakfast for us daily).”

Subha

“A unique experience of staying in a castle in a tiny island in the Stockholm archipelago. The quiet grounds make for an interesting and calm stay, esp. after the last boat has left. Rooms are quiet, comfortable and minimally furnished. Bathrooms...”
