“A night at the quarry”
The B&B is situated right next to the Falun Gruva - so it is the perfect location to start or end your visit to the site. The B&B is spotless clean - both the private rooms as common showers and sanitary. There are tables outside so that you can enjoy a view over the quarry in the evening.

“Good location, but noisy.”
The location is perfect, just next to Falu Gruva. The amount of breakfast is quite enough.

“Unique and charming B&B (a new favourite!)”
Everything! The location is superb (you're legitimately staying in a world heritage site and in the house that used to belong to one of its most famous engineers), it's walkable as well as good for cycling and with ample space for cars. The beds were very comfortable and the interior design beautiful. Everything was very well thought out, well managed, and signposted. The breakfast bags were insanely generous!

“The whole family enyoyed the stay a lot and the children asked to go there again.”
Very nice breakfast bags with allergi-information as requested. Very nice and comfortable beds. The security was very good with different codes to different guests. Very nice with a sauna.

Fantastic view over the mine, great clean room, and clean common kitchen. I would gladly recommend it, or use the bed and breakfast again.

“Cozy stay in an exceptional location”
Very fair - everything is exactly as described and looks exactly as in the pictures, no weird surprises. The hotel was clean and very cozy, all worked well and I felt that everything has been taken care of and provided beforehand. I really enjoyed my room - the interior was tastefully designed and the view on the mine was exceptional. Drinking morning coffee and admiring Falu Gruva was such a delightful experience!

“A unique place that's comfortable and clean”
A unique hostel on the edge of one of Sweden's most fascinating cultural treasures, the Falu mine. The building was old and beautiful, and all the common spaces were sparkling clean. My room was cozy and the bed very comfortable. There's also an excellent restaurant and a charming cafe just a two-minute walk away. Altogether a quiet and peaceful oasis in the charming city of Falun.
