Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's location is great, close to the metro station and central attractions. The rooms are a bit on the small side compared to expectations. The service provided by the staff is top-notch with quick check-in and check-out. The dining experience offers excellent coffee and shower facilities. Facilities are adequate though the gym can be crowded at times.
The pictures on this site do not do them justice, as they had plenty of room for us and lovely exposed beams.
The hotel room, while small, had a really nice bed and was a good size, though we booked a superior one. The service was awesome, very helpful and accommodating, leaving our luggage for the day and allowing an early check-in. The location is fine, close to a metro station, the main shopping street, and Haymarket. The dining experience could be better for a 4-star hotel, with a poor fruit selection all sliced and jammed up into a bowl. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel rooms are comfortable, although small, with spacious bathrooms. The lack of storage amenities like a wardrobe or mini bar can be inconvenient, and the walls in our room were not well-kept. The corridors throughout the hotel are also noticeably unkempt, offering a less than ideal aesthetic.
The hotel offers stylish rooms with a 4 poster bed and attractive decor, but they are overcrowded and poorly lit after sunset, which can make activities like dressing or reading challenging. The service is friendly and helpful, especially at this family-run hotel, providing excellent value for money. The location is decent, close to a subway station allowing easy access to the city center, although it can be quite chilly even in May. The dining experience is superb with a great selection of fresh cheese and herring, but the space needs improvement. Overall, a good choice for those who appreciate warm hospitality in a convenient location.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were very quiet, spacious, and exceeded my expectations, featuring a lovely big comfy bed. The only downside was the limited number of power outlets in the room, but the free coffee and tea were a nice touch. The service was top-notch, with a very friendly and helpful staff who even sold us the Stockholm card, making our visit to the lovely city much more convenient. The location was great, with easy access to the Metro station and plenty of bars, restaurants, and shops nearby. The dining experience was superb, offering a great selection of fresh cheese, salad, and herring, along with typical Scandinavian food and catering to gluten-free requirements. The facilities were excellent, providing everything needed for a comfortable stay.
The hotel's rooms are small but comfortable, and the service is very friendly. The location is perfect with easy access to the city center. The dining experience offers a wide variety of options. The facilities are well-maintained.
I stayed at a hotel that was on the first floor, right opposite to the kitchen. Although the room didn't have much charm and didn't look like the pictures, it was fine and clean. The service was always tentative, friendly, and helpful whenever required. The location was good, just a two-minute walk from the Metro station, but not central. The dining was good with typical Scandinavian food. Overall, it was a comfortable stay with some minor drawbacks.
I loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were not exactly as described on Booking, but they were excellent. It was a nice touch to have a proper ceiling lamp in the room, something many hotels seem to overlook these days. The mix of antique furniture and modern bath fixtures gave a unique charm, but the shower was a bit small for a normal-sized person, and there was no soap in my room.
The hotel has a wonderful location, with clean and pretty rooms, great breakfast, and a lovely atmosphere. However, some noise intrusion was a downside during the stay.
The hotel has certain innovative personal details and looks chic and cool. The rooms were quite small, but not too small with a tiny sink and shower cabin. The service was awesome, very helpful, and accommodating. The location is within a stone's throw from Rådmansgatan subway station, making it convenient to explore Stockholm. The dining experience offered a variety that made for a good start to the day.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The upgraded double superior room with a four-poster bed and sauna exceeded my expectations. The rooms were beautifully furnished with great character, very spacious, and incredibly comfortable. The junior suite, although not as well-lit, was still large, spacious, and well-cleaned. The service was top-notch, with polite and helpful staff catering to all our needs quickly. The hotel's location, just a short walk or metro ride away from the city center, was convenient for our visits to Stockholm School of Economics. The complimentary tea and coffee available all day was a nice touch. The dining experience offered a wide selection of delicious food, making breakfast a delightful start to the day. The hotel's facilities were well-maintained and added to the overall enjoyable experience.
