Stay in Castles and Manor Houses
Discover unique, authentic castle and manor house settings in Uppland with an overnight stay. Here are some accommodations near Uppsala where history comes alive—rooms that tell centuries-old stories, combined with luxurious comforts.
Krusenberg Herrgård
Address: Krusenberg 436, Uppsala
This beautiful manor house dates back to the 17th century and sits right by the shores of Lake Mälaren. It offers a small spa, and the garden is filled with flourishing apple trees—the fruit adds its flavor to both the tea and the mimosas served in the restaurant. The rooms are decorated in a classic, romantic style, perfect for a weekend escape for two.
Wiks slott
Address: Wiks mur 29, Uppsala
Wiks Castle is one of Sweden’s best-preserved medieval fortresses, offering a fascinating glimpse into the nation’s past. The grounds are just as impressive, with a sandy beach, an apple orchard, and plenty of hiking trails. Overnight stays are available on selected dates, in one of three hotel buildings featuring Nordic-style rooms.
Gimo Herrgård
Address: Bruksgatan 24, Gimo
A hidden gem tucked away in the beautiful forests of northern Uppland, right beside the sparkling Lake Gimo. This was one of Sweden’s very first Gustavian manor houses, today offering both adventure and relaxation. Try the high-ropes course or unwind in the lakeside cabin’s outdoor hot bath. Wine enthusiasts can also join tastings in the wine cellar.
Salsta slott
Adress: Lena Salsta 63, Vattholma
This baroque castle is a living time capsule—from the stately halls of the 17th century to the elegance of the 20th. Here you can rent a self-catering pavilion, giving you two full floors to yourself. Salsta offers a full calendar of fun events worth checking out. And if luck (or misfortune) is on your side, you may even encounter one of the ghosts said to linger here.
Noors slott
Address: Ledingevägen 93, Knivsta
This wooden castle from 1697 is located between Uppsala and Arlanda Airport. It is, in fact, Sweden’s smallest baroque castle, but filled to the brim with classic charm. Weekend packages range from gastronomy and murder mysteries to yoga retreats. Don’t miss the preserved 17th-century orchard with its very own local apple variety, Noors Glasäpple.
