A wonderful stay

The folks there are so helpful And friendly, the room is on the small side but comfy and our room had a little terrace to sit out on in the evening. The breakfast is very nice and the hotel is so close to the train/bus station and in the old town with many shops and restaurants.

A wonderful stay

What a charming hotel in the old town part of Ystad. The staff were so helpful and friendly! The breakfast is lovely. The room was small but cozy with a little balcony, a comfy bed and sort of shabby chic decor. Highly recommend!

This boutique hotel was an unexpected delight. In a nineteenth-century building made comfortable for the 21st century while preserving some of the feel of the past. Staff were warm and helpful. Fantastic breakfast buffet that caters to a wide range of preferences. Friendly advice for first-timers--it's in the walking area of Ystad so don't expect to drive up to the door. Very cheap parking is nearby though.

Small, nice hotel. Nice art all over. Our room was quite small but perfectly enough space for one night stay. Quiet area. Parking is available on the back side of the hotel. Tasty breakfast. In the middle of the center so the restaurants etc. are close.

The room was so tiny and there was virtually no storage space. Also quite warm in admittedly warm weather - the small fan was not adequate. Very limited (paid) parking. BUT our hosts were excellent as was the breakfast and the place was very clean.

We loved the Prins Carl. It is in a great location to explore Ystad. The family owned and operated hotel was so much fun with its whimsical, artistic decor built around the legacy of Prince Carl and his dog. The top floor, three bedroom apartment was perfect for our family of two children, parents and grandparents. The apartment windows and balcony with seating area have stunning views of the harbor and town. It would be great for two or three couples on a weekend getaway. The staff were so nice and clearly love their property. The train station is an easy 3 minute walk away. We had such a great time at Prins Carl!

Run down and grossly overpriced.

Worn room, last renovated in the 80s. The bed was hard and squeky - made for bad sleep. Plenty of hair in the bathroom. It would barely have been acceptable at 700 SEK and it was, in fact, 1700 SEK.
