Afar Magazine "The island’s 19th-century prison was converted into the Långholmen Hotel in 1989. Visit the museum to learn about such former residents as journalist and novelist Jan Guillou." Full review

"Guests at this hotel-hostel, in a former prison on Långholmen island, sleep on bunks in a cell, with either shared or private baths (it's much nicer than that sounds; there's a playful vibe throughout." Full review
Frommer's "Visitors enjoy greenery, theater, wine-tasting...rooms are in the former cells and so many are quite narrow. They're surprisingly light-filled, with contemporary if quite simple furnishings" Full review

Michelin Guide "Comfy, functional bedrooms... Bright, modern restaurant."
Fodor's "The rooms looking out over the water are fantastic here, and for a small supplement you can get a room with a private sauna and Jacuzzi."
DK Eyewitness "Housed in three 18th-century buildings and a historic steamship (for the conference facilities) anchored nearby in the harbour, the Reisen is a lively location."
Rough Guide "One of Stockholm’s classic hotels, dating back to the eighteenth century. Rooms are decked out with handsome wood panelling and all have bathtubs (not the norm in Sweden)."
Time Out "Now run by the First Hotel chain, it fully exploits its waterside location, with each of the 144 handsomely decorated rooms enjoying some sort of water view." Full review
Star Service "On a picturesque harbor, this hotel pleases with its handsome, regionally influenced decor and fine location." Full review
