21 Jan 2025
Very clean, nice furniture, wonderful old atmosphere despite the prison history. There was even a museum room to see. We stayed in the bigger rooms, and it was very pleasant. No noise. Tap and sink in the room are helpful. Nice bathrobes to use to go to the pretty and clean showers. Spacious toilets in the corridor. Kitchen available upstairs and a good breakfast. TV in the breakfast room. Super nice staff !

“Perfect comfortable stay in Umeå!”

Beautiful and interesting historic building, comfortable rooms and facilities (the showers were great, shampoo and soap was provided!) and very elaborate breakfast. The hotel had everything we needed and more. The best thing about this accommodation were the two hosts - thank you for making our stay so comfortable!

“Very interesting place for short stay in Umea.”

Great facilit in the historical prison. Communal showers are good and clean with soap and towels provided. Friendly staff, and there is even a small museum of the prison. Central location.

“Historic Stay in Central Umeå”
02 Dec 2024
Staff were friendly and the hotel was an interesting place to stay! I enjoyed the restored prison and museum about the history of the building. The layout was great and the location was close to central Umeå and the bus to the airport.
