The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "An uninventive script, flat direction and a nauseating theme-song scarcely help to sustain interest in this modern fairy-story, while the acting generally (the Princess is alternately proud and coy, the Prince all smiles and accent) is lacking in the necessary charm and finesse. The only positive assets are some attractive views of Stockholm and an amusingly ludicrous cameo by Adolf Jahr as a knowing Finnish smuggler." Kine Weekly wrote: "Friendly disarmingly naive Eastman Color Ruritanian comedy, smoothly portrayed by an international cast. Staged in Sweden, it tells of romance between a prince and a princess, both of whom are travelling incognito, and, true to tradition, has a and-they-lived-happily-ever-after fade-out. Its tale is neither emotionally compelling nor particularly witty, but nevertheless makes an appropriate peg for delightful views of Stockholm and Scandinavian outer-reaches. It'll please the ladies." The Daily Film Renter wrote: "Pleasant royal romance in delightful Swedish backgrounds; for sentimentalists." ==References==
