This design hotel is a former fortress and lies by the Baltic Coast, just outside the town of Fårösund and 2 km from the ferry terminal to Fårö island. It offers fine dining, free Wi-Fi and private parking.
Some of the guest rooms are housed in 19th-century vaults, while others are found in the modern wing. All rooms have carefully selected furniture and products.
Other facilities at Fårösund Fortress include a sauna, a hot tub and an indoor swimming pool.
The restaurant will be closed from 29th of May to 18th of June.
Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.2 for a two-person trip.

“Beautifully designed hotel in a quaint peaceful location. Great place to stay to explore Northern Gotland and Fårö. Lovely communal spaces. The pool is on the small side but it was nice to have a little splash in (particularly when it was raining)...”
