STF Hotel 1861 Umeå

Hotel 1861 is known for its personal service and genuine atmosphere. Here, you step straight into a fascinating part of Umeå’s history – while staying close to the city’s restaurants, culture and nature experiences.

The former cells have been carefully converted into simple and functional guest rooms, where many original details have been preserved to maintain the historic atmosphere. Toilets and showers are located in the corridor and shared with other guests. Each morning, a simple breakfast is served in the shared dining room, where you can start your day and perhaps exchange tips with fellow visitors. If you prefer to prepare your own meals, there is a self-catering kitchen equipped with what you need during your stay.

The building also houses a small museum that tells the story of the property and life in the former prison.
