Converted prison near city centre - Langholmen Hotel was once the old Crown Prison, which was built in the early 19th century. In 1975, the last prisoner was discharged and in May 1989 the hotel opened after two years' renovation work.

The old prison entrance hall has been converted into a reception, with a cafeteria open 24 hours a day. In the middle of the building is the attractive gallery dating from 1866. This has given us the hotel's beautiful, open atrium. Times change, and staying in a cell is now a captivating experience. We promise to give you your own key, and that breakfast consists of more than bread and water.

It is sited on an island a few minutes away from the centre of Stockholm by underground train. The island and surrounding area are a pretty tree lined location, with some open parkland nearby.
 
"The hotel team hope that you will discover that Langholmen is not just captivating, but an island of unspoilt natural beauty."
