“A great experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 July 2011

I saw this hotel on a Web site of original places to stay and couldn't resist since we were going to be in Sweden over the summer.

We arranged a time to meet someone a few days before and picked up something for to eat for dinner as once you are out at the Utter Inn, you cannot go back to the mainland for anything until they come and pick you up. We didn't think of it until it was too late, but beer and wine would have been nice!

The ride out to the Utter Inn is less than 5 minutes. The weather was poor on the date we went, so it was a little choppy but still a lot of fun and I highly recommend this adventure.

They gave us a 10 liter container of water for our stay. There is a porta potty, but that is it for luxury. Remember to bring hand sanitizer with you.

The view is very nice with the city on one side and the small islands on the other. Many boats went by as well as wind surfers and were very friendly. Some even took our photos. There is a small table and 2 chairs on the deck which we brought inside for our dinner as the weather was cold and windy.

The ladder down to the room was sturdy but remember to wear your shoes each time you go up and down. There were many fish that swam by the windows of the bedroom. And we fed bread to the fish in the morning which caused them to jump up out of the water.

The breakfast was very good and consisted of hard boiled eggs, cheese, ham, bread, slices of cucumbers and tomatoes, as well as containers of juice and milk. I would definitely recommend ordering the breakfast which is left in a cooler with ice packs for you when they drop you off.

The beds were much more comfortable than expected. We had a great night sleeping under the water. :-)

The owner Peter was right on time and picked us up in a boat to bring us back to shore.

A great experience and I highly recommend it.

Room Tip: Only one room available. Expect tight spaces, but very comfortable!

“Incredible Experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 August 2009

people found this review helpful

We had an enchanting getaway at the Utter Inn, a tiny little red house plopped in the middle of a lake outside Stockholm. Staff drove us out to our little villa on a high speed inflatable, and left us with plenty of fresh water and a plentiful breakfast. Conditions are camp-like (propane stove, latrine) but the experience was unforgettable. You open a hatch and climb down a ladder to your sleeping quarters, (two twin beds) and on all four walls are panorama windows allowing you to see the little fishies outside your submerged bedroom. Incredible! They also provided us with a raft, where we rowed to our own little island. The Utter Inn is the brainchild of an artist who also has a tree house inn called the Woodpecker, and is planning a little red Swedish house on the moon!
