Wonderfully central,can walk almost anywhere and very friendly staff. Staying on an historic yatch is really cool! A short walk acdoss the bridge brings one into the centre of the city, Gamla Stan, with its restaurants, shops and historic sights - fantastic!

In the 3 star category this hotel rates well. It's centrally located, clean and has the added quirk of being a boat. In summer it must be very pleasant to sit on the extensive decks topside. However, the rooms are cabins which, in terms of size and comfort, should be borne in mind. I read another guest review that "fine for a couple of nights" and I would agree. Also that the breakfast is good in a restaurant with a fine view. The restaurant itself (for dinner) is also fine but not inexpensive.

Top Tip
Other than the Malardrottningen itself, there are currently no other restaurants (or any shops) on the island of Riddarholmen. The restaurant listed in the guidebooks is under refurbishment. However, 5 minutes on foot takes you into Gamla Stan or north to the city where there's a wide choice of shops & restaurants. The best restaurant I found (good value & relaxed) was Vapiano beside the metro, Gamla Stan entrance. The best things I did were attend the Royal Swedish Ballet at the Kungliga Opperan (relatively cheap midweek), a concert in the Storkyrkn (sp? - cathedral), the Moderna Museet and the Vasa Museum (allow at least 3 hours).

From the location the hotel is really recommendable but we had a problem with our room-the heating was fully turned on and also the opened window was not enough to cool down the room a little bit. We asked the lady at the reception twice to turn down the heating, she wrote it down but nothing happened.So thze room temperature was like in a sauna and it was unbearable hot in the room. Therefore I wouldn't recommend the hotel. And one receptionist was really unfriendly-I was rather disappointad about how we as guests were treated in this hotel. Hotel in central location, many sights in walking distance!
