Stockholm far exceeded my expectations. It is so charming & everyone is so friendly. Gamla Stan (old town) and the ABBA museum were the stars of our vacation. We loved all the little shops and all the food options. We will be back. We adore Stockholm

I really didn't know what to expect from Stockholm and what I experienced absolutely blew my mind. It is now one of my favorite cities on the planet. The old city of Stockholm is incredibly picturesque with phenomenal architecture. I'll be back often

A substantial european capital with plenty of choice for drinks, dining, museums, attractions etc. Clean friendly, and feels safe. It was very cold when we visited (-15, feels like -22 on the last day) but right clothes & fine. Wished I had longer.

Vasa museum is a must! Take the commuter ferry to Vaxholm if you want a taste of island life and traditional Swedish wooden homes. Only £4 for an adult and takes 1 hr. Nice scenery along the route. Skansen is good fun and loved the Nordic animals.

Stockholm is a Scandinavian city so it's safe with good public transport, but is best walked. Food is on the expensive side for Americans but lots of options. If the weather is nice archipelago boat tour if not Vasser Museum. Most speak English.

Stockholm is a great city with so much going on. We visited in the winter and the whole city was lit with pretty Christmas lighting. Streets are clean and safe. Public transport is affordable and reliable. Love to go back in the summer again.

We went to Gamla Stan (and saw the Palace, the Cathedral, and walked around and did some shopping), and we went on a kayaking tour, an Archipelago boat trip, and to the Skansen outdoor museum. I highly recommend every one of these outings!

I was very impressed with the cleanliness and the commitment to being eco-friendly. There are walking and bike paths everywhere, and little car traffic for such a large city. The people I spoke with were friendly and helpful.

What a fascinating and beautiful city! So many museums and history to absorb each day. After visiting once eight years ago, I still feel like I have only scratched the surface of what is available to see. We hope to return!
"Superb hotel. Comfortable rooms with high ceilings giving a roomy feel, shower like a pressure washer, staff that could not be more helpful, and located in the thick of the city, outstanding breakfast. The only downside, which is a really minor niggle, is the fridge in the room was practically pointless, but ice from the bar fixed that problem."
"We did not eat at the Hotel. The bed was comfortable, the internet access was good and access to the train and Arlanda express was great! Also the hotel was very quiet and we have a lovely view out of our room."
"Rooms were fantastic, clean modern, great views. Loved the property. One thing that stood up was there many amenities available for the guests for free. I took a run with other guests and my kids went vintage shopping. Our guide was a fantastic girl. Her name was Sarah. Made our experience in the hotel very special!!!"
"Great location, 50 steps from the Arlanda Express terminal. The Central station is around the corner and you can walk fron this hotel to any place in the city. Great staff. "
"I had some hiccup staying there but Isabel
from front Desk team was wonderful and tried her best to make sure my stay was great. Thank you so much Isabel."
