What people say

"Af Chapman is a full-rigged steel ship moored on the islet Skeppsholmen in central Stockholm, Sweden, now serving as a hostel B&B. The beautiful ship has amazing views over Stockholm’s inlet, across the waters from Old Town and the Royal Castle. The ship and nearby Skeppsholmen buildings is a grand Stockholm address to call "home," for a few nights, or more! There’s a walking bridge across to the mainland city, where archipelago boats docks just a few minutes away outside Grand Hotel. There’s also a commuter ferry connecting the islet to Gamla Stan and Djurgården. The ship and nearby buildings form the hostel B&B. Until planned renovations of the ship are finished in December 2023, rooms are available in the newly renovated adjacent buildings, according to the Swedish Tourism Association, STF. "

Mentioned in these guides

If you're a nature lover visiting the city of Stockholm, you can enjoy the best of both worlds by staying at a waterfront hotel, surrounded by nature. And you can even take the ferry there, if you know where to stay! I love taking the ferry from the inner city -- home, and to the archipelago beyond. So I've made a guide with a few hotels along the inlet to Stockholm, if you also want to treat yourself. I've chosen hotels and B & B/hostels with gorgeous water views -- easily accessible by ferry* -- along the inlet to Stockholm. We start on a hostel ship in the very heart of Stockholm, across the pond from the Royal Castle, and end at a hotel on a small islet that's actually an old military fort. Because I live near Stockholm's inlet, myself, I've not needed to stay at hotels, but I've chosen stays in naturally beautiful locations that I like to visit myself, and where I know the docks* well. If you find the guide helpful, and book through my links here, I may get a commission from the sale (at no extra cost to you). *Ferry traffic and boat type may vary depending on season, and docks/jetties. So it's important to check boat availability and time tables (with the hotels, transport cos.) ahead of time. If you'd like some more visual inspiration from on and off the water, come along for a virtual boat ride on my Instagram account! I'd also be happy to create a custom guide with travel recommendations for you. You'll find the link in my bio. Excited for your trip to Stockholm, where you can hail a... ferry! :-)
