"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
