My City: Stockholm botels

Lottie Storey May 18, 2016

Enjoy a spell of midsummer magic as the sun shines in Sweden's cool capital city. Turn to page 62 of June's The Simple Things for a tour around Stockholm with Lola Akinmade Åkerstrom.

Nigerian-born Lola (lolaakinmade.com) is an award-winning writer and photographer whose work appears in National Geographic Traveler, The Guardian and many more. She is the editor of Slow Travel Stockholm (slowtravelstockholm.com). 

Lola says:

Stockholm has some fantastic boat hotels called botels, which are refurbished remnants of the city’s nautical past, now used as modern-day lodgings. 

A list of some botels in Stockholm worth checking out - http://www.slowtravelstockholm.com/historical-stockholm/staying-afloat-stockholms-botels/

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
