Accessibility
Castanea is situated in an old building on a cobble stone street in the middle on the Old Town in Stockholm. This means there are some limitations to accessability. In our building there is an elevator, but it´s small. There are also some smaller stairs indoors and some large steps in front of the entrance to the building.
