Beautiful and unusual stay in Stockholm. Friendly and helpful staff, arranged for us to leave luggage on early arrival. Freshly prepared and delicious breakfast. It is about 20 minute walk into central Stockholm, but the Metro stop is nearby and the walk is along the river so pleasant if the weather is good.

I booked this hotel solely on the basis of past reviews. Our stay could not have been better. Our host was professional and took care of all of our needs. The boat did not move and you never would have know your were sleeping on the river. Breakfast was made to order and he even made us sandwiches for our next trip. 5 star service...

Enjoyable stay in Stockholm
Together with my husband we spent a fantastic weekend in botel Monika. (We expected to meet Bill Clinton but Monika Levinsky left the yacht before we arrived so he wasn't there(().After booking we got via email the instructions and information about staying in the hotel which was very helpful. The yacht has only several rooms which creates a cozy atmosphere. The room was clean and a small sweet surprise was waiting inside. In the morning we were served fabulous romantic breakfast in the deckhouse just for two of us! The breakfast was delicious and nourishing, we enjoyed it a lot! And so taste strawberry jam I didn't eat for ages! We would like to thank Dawid for his hospitality, quick check in and all his help during our stay. We would definitely come again.

A touch of adventure
Quite an enjoyable experience, our children loved it and it was an adventure for all of us, not every day you get to sleep on a boat, would recommend to others. Breakfast was good and served at a time you choose, within serving hours. Arriving later in the day, the directions given to access the boat and room are easy to follow, but if you prefer to be greeted by staff, suggest arrive at normal check in time. Only negative, in the 4 bunk room, the upper bunks do not have a safety rail, so not so good for small children.

It is quite different from staying in a hotel on land. A whole new experience.

Great location and unique boat living
An absolutely unique experience. There. Are only four rooms on the M/S Monika, with a real experience of living on a boat. Our daughters loved it (and so did we)! The boat is located in a very central area, making it easy to walk to the city centre and surrounding areas.

Great Access to the public transportation, restaurants, and shopping. Good Value for an "in-city" hotel. A unique experience that our kids will cherish.

Great experience !
Having stayed for 1 night with my 2 kids (10 and 14) this was a fantastic experience. located near St Eriksplan metro stop - a 10 minute walk and down many steps to the water's edge. only small bags should be taken here as little space for storage. You must take the combination lock number with you to access the gate to the boat and collect the room key from a key box - again a combination needed. Very clean and comfortable - we all slept so well and had a lovely breakfast served at the time ordered. not for the elderly , very small children or those inable to climb steep ladders to get to your room ! we loved it and will return again as the most reasonable room we could get for our budget.

Great hotel
Great stay, a different experience staying in a boat. We really enjoyed and although the wifi wasn't working at its best we basically used the hotel just for sleeping. Great atmosphere and it was great interacting with other guests during breakfast, which was a plus to this hotel. We'll define tk come back when in Stockholm again.

An unusual experience
We had a lovely week on the boat in Room 1. The room was comfortable for sleeping, as long as you don't mind bunkbeds, but there was only one chair to sit on. On the other hand, the common room was quite comfortable. WiFi access was decent in our room. The bathroom was tiny (I kept hitting the shower wall when sitting on the toilet), but water pressure was excellent and there was plenty of hot water. Breakfast was wonderful! Everything we could want and plenty of it! The young man who works on the boat was friendly and helpful. The location was good: there's a Tunnelbana stop a short walk away and plenty of restaurants within easy walking distance. As others have said, this is not a place for people with mobility issues as you must go up and down a fairly steep ladder to get on and off the boat. And it's not a place for people who travel with half their closet. There are no closets, just a short hanging rack, and no bathroom storage at all. I'm really glad we stayed at the M/S Monika, but I don't know that I would do it again.

Different sort of place to stay.
The boat was comfortable enough to stay in for our family of three and the location was good. However, gone are "Our lovely crew: Sussi, Linnea & Maja" talked about on their website (http://www.msmonika.se/en/about-the-ship). They have been replaced by a Polish fellow who's pleasant enough, but knows little about Swedish life and doesn't understand the language should you, the foreign traveller, need anything explained or translated. For example: I ignorantly attracted a parking violation and the fellow was unable to tell me why or what the notice actually said I had done wrong. (I found out later: If you park on the street just outside of the boat, you must move your car on Friday morning from midnight to 6:00 or you'll get a big fine.)

Kids loved sleeping on a real sailing boat
The kids had a wonderful time staying on a real sailing boat. Naturally as it's a small boat the room are compact and you can hear your neighbour through the wall. Overall a really fun experience for a night or two in Stockholm.

Fantastic experience for the kids!
This sailing boat/hotel is a very special place to stay if you intend to experience something different and unique. The boat has 4 rooms, fully rebuilt and very nicely decorated with all amenities and comfort needed. We stayed 2 adults and 2 kids, each one in own individual bed and shower/ rest room inside the room. The breakfast and service were fantastic. Just keep in mind that it is quite difficult to find parking space near.

Fun in Boat!
This was planned as a fun over night stay for our kids whilst we were in stockholm. And it was! This is highly recommended if you fancy staying somewhere other than a traditional hotel. Perfect location and a carefully restored vessel made for a great stay. Although we have rated the room comfomfort as only 3/5 this is because it is a boat. We did not expect comfort as we went for something unusual. Despite the fact you are on a boat the hotel is still reasonably comforatble and the bathroom is spacious. Whilst we were not directly met by anybody upon our arrival, we were given very clear and simple instructions for self check in and key collection. We also had help from staff on the morning of our departure with looking after suitaceses etc. The breakfast was excellent. Overall, we can highly recommend this hotel for a fun and unusual place to stay in Stockholm.

Great breakfast
Let's get the bad stuff out the way, the wifi sucked and the bunk bed didn't do wonders for my back! Ok, now the good stuff, It's a boat! The location is great, the staff was very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was one of the best I've had in Stockholm.

Charmingly unique
Staying on a houseboat/hotel was a unique experience. It was a small space, but not so small that it felt cramped. The breakfast was excellent and on par with the restaurants we paid good money to eat at. Sussi was a gracious host and made sure we had everything we needed. She even helped track down some luggage that had been displaced by the airline. Note that the boat is not always staffed, and expect a self-serve check-in if you arrive in the evening. The location is decent. While the boat is at water level, the actual city is several stories above. So there are several flights of stairs you need to climb if you want to go anywhere, but from there it is a short walk to either of two train stations, or any number of shops and restaurants.
