The hotel was within walking distance of all the major attractions and transportation hubs for Stockholm. If you have luggage it’s best to take an uber/taxi to the hotel if arriving via Stockholm’s Central Station. Overall, our stay was fine and the breakfast buffet was definitely the highlight of our stay.

Lovely hotel
Enjoyed a very pleasant stay, the breakfast was excellent, the staff couldn’t have been more helpful and the room was comfortable. It’s in a nice quiet area with all the sights within walking distance. Would highly recommend.

Great hotel!
Great place, my sleep here was phenomenal, the staff is extremely service minded. Free coffee was great. I know this buffet is extreme. The neighborhood is a bit too far from central transport but it's a decent walk. John 3:16!
The gym is small but ok, the view is phenomenal. Especially summer time, at 22:00.
The hallways on the top floors are a bit too tight, and some of the rooms do feel hostel-y, if you don't get a window. Although, this more recent room I received was quite spacious and fine. The sleep was absolutely great. Felt fresh and well rested.
Of course, the propaganda should never been there-- the pride -- I didn't like it . I hope the staff will take this feedback and remove it .

Breakfast staff let hotel down.
First of all the good points. The hotel was of a good standard, the room high quality (and I was asked at check in whether I preferred a room with a bath or a shower). The check out was quick and they stored my luggage for later collection quickly and efficiently.
But, they really messed up over breakfast - the breakfast area was busy when I came downstairs but there were places at a bar table area. However the staff member checking people in as they came down recommended I went to an overspill room downstairs, and assured me there was a full choice of items.
I should have realised as soon as I got down there that this was very much second best compared to the main breakfast area, plain seating in a box like room which was almost empty, coffee from a thermos not freshly made, no toaster for the bread and when I checked on my way out there were twice as many hot food items available in the main breakfast area - this really let down what was looking like a nice hotel, but worst was the fact I had been misled by the staff member - that is unacceptable and why the rating is dropped two stars at to what it would have been otherwise.

Trots att vi blev uppgraderade som var rummet sådär. Frukosten trots helg och kostade extra var tyvärr sämre än på Scandic en måndag. Där hade vi absolut förväntat oss mycket mer.
