Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel offers everything you need for a comfortable stay, although room size may be smaller compared to standard American motels off the interstate. The service was friendly but lacked some drink options. The location is excellent for exploring the city on foot, although it may be slightly affected by nearby construction. The dining options are good, with vegan choices available, despite possible crowding. Overall, the hotel provides a pleasant experience at a reasonable value.
I had a blast staying at this hotel in Stockholm. The rooms felt a little used but cozy, with a comfortable bed. The hotel is centrally located, although rooms in Stockholm are always expensive. The service was very nice and helpful, accommodating every need with a good breakfast and okay Wi-Fi. The location offers a great view over Stockholm harbour, walking distance to the old city and city center. The dining experience was amazing, with a huge array of delicious options. The hotel is fun to watch the cruise ships and ferries between Finland and Sweden.
My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, while not up to global standards, were acceptable for Stockholm. I appreciated the idea of no unnecessary cleaning. The service was exceptional, especially with their historic insights and helpfulness throughout my stay. The location couldn't have been better, with easy access to the center via the ferry or a walk through lovely Soedermalm. Unfortunately, the dining experience left much to be desired. The facilities were adequate, but some areas need improvement.
I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel! The rooms were larger than expected and well-appointed, making for a comfortable stay. The service was top-notch, with staff going out of their way to be helpful. The location was superb, right next to the subway station and near many attractions. The dining experience was remarkable with a wide array of choices. On the downside, the rooms were a bit on the small side, and the view from my window wasn't the best.
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. While the rooms were a bit small for a family, they were clean and tidy, with a nice view over the sea and city. The service was friendly and helpful, although there were some issues with drink orders. The location was optimal, with easy access to major attractions, but there were ongoing construction works nearby. The dining options were good but could get busy. The facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel had a great location, right around the corner from Gamla Stan, making it an excellent base for exploring the city center. The rooms were smaller than expected and in need of some repair, but the service was extremely kind and accommodating. The dining experience offered a wide variety of fresh options, although the TV in the room was not working properly. Overall, it's a convenient spot with friendly service and a good selection at breakfast.
