Lord Nelson Hotel is a family-owned boutique hotel inspired by maritime history, located in the heart of Gamla Stan, Stockholm’s historic Old Town. The hotel occupies an exceptionally narrow historic building on Västerlånggatan, giving it a unique and intimate atmosphere and making it one of the narrowest hotels in the world. As a result, the rooms are compact and efficiently designed, reflecting the character and charm of the historic building. The interiors feature an extensive collection of ship models, maritime antiques and historical artifacts, reflecting a passion for seafaring history and exploration. Named after the legendary British admiral Lord Nelson, the hotel celebrates the spirit of maritime discovery and adventure. Lord Nelson Hotel was the first hotel in The Collector’s Hotels, a family-owned collection of boutique hotels in Gamla Stan that also includes Victory Hotel and Lady Hamilton Hotel, all located within a short walking distance of each other.

Check-in is from 15:00 and check-out is until 12:00.

We offer a breakfast buffet with a selection of cold cuts, cheeses, eggs, bread, yoghurt, cereals and fresh fruit, as well as coffee, tea and juice. Breakfast is served 07:00–10:00 every day.

There is no restaurant on site. However, guests are welcome to visit Bistro Emma at Lady Hamilton Hotel, a seasonal restaurant open from 1 May to 30 September, serving Swedish classics and seasonal dishes. Leijontornet at our sister hotel Victory Hotel, located just a few minutes away, is an ultra-vinous restaurant and wine bar created by chef Daniel Crespi. The restaurant is a destination for food and wine lovers, known for its extensive wine list with over a hundred wines served by the glass and a cellar featuring more than 3,000 different labels, alongside seasonal tasting menus and an à la carte selection. From mid-May to September, Leijontornet takes a seasonal break. During this period, we instead welcome our guests to our courtyard summer restaurant Vingården – an oasis in the heart of Stockholm where you can enjoy food and wine while dining under the open sky. Weather is never an issue, as the retractable cabriolet roof and heaters ensure a comfortable setting regardless of the weather. At Vingården we serve food worthy of any Southern European piazza, with a wine-calibrated à la carte menu featuring beautiful vegetables, seafood, fish and generous cuts of dry-aged meat.
