Reviews of Lord Nelson Hotel
Peter from United States (8/10)
The location is in a prime spot if you are looking to explore Gamla Stan. You walk right outside your door and you are in the heart of it. Shops, restaurants, cafes, all steps away. It makes Stockholm very walkable.
Christopher from United Kingdom (9/10)
Quaint and quirky. Location is simply the best. Staff were fantastic. Breakfast simple but great and all that was needed to set you up for the day. Would stay again in a heartbeat

Location
Harry from United Kingdom (8/10)
Very basic, but was comfy and had everything you need. Perfect location for the old town
Hayley from Australia (8/10)
Loved it for the location and quirkiness. The breakfast was simple but delicious, and staff very helpful. Location in old town was lovely. We had a family room which was well laid out so bunk beds are slightly around a corner, almost like a separate space but not quite. It was small but sufficient.
Mick from United States (9/10)
Excellent location in the very center of the old town. Best value in the area. Very clean, very good breakfast (including hard boiled eggs!), the furnishings and the linens in my room were new and of high-quality and the bathroom floor had radiant heat! This super boutique hotel has awesome appeal and character, and has a common library room with a full glass wall overlooking one of the most appealing old town streets…plus, there is a rooftop deck which is mine boggling…Awesome!
Christine from United Kingdom (9/10)

Cool interior and very helpful staff
Narayan from Sweden (7/10)
The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. I very much enjoyed the area surrounding the hotel. Gamla Stan is a great tourist destination, it's smack in the middle of several landmarks, and there are quite a number of shops, cafes, and more in less than a minute's walk.
