This is my second time staying there. The staff is wonderful and this time they helped me right away with an upgrade to a room with a window and view. The hotel is clean, affordable and offers a wonderful free breakfast every morning. In the evening, you can enjoy a bar right on property. The hotel is within easy walking distance of several restaurants. A bit longer walk will take you right to Gamla Stan.

Nice experience

Again nice experience. Third or fourth time in this hotel. Some small issues: some Friday night not-so-loud noises from street to 2nd. But silent enough. Bistro renovation going on, need to find another restaurant nearby. Thanks for early check-in with only 200 SEK extra fee, the reserved room was available in the morning.

An ideal base for exploring Stockholm. Friendly & helpful staff. Powerful shower and very comfortable beds. We were in the basement so without a window and slept brilliantly. There are so many restaurants, shops and bars nearby and Gamla Stan is only 20-25 minutes walk away. Great for public transport too. No kettle or fridge in the room but I believe that's standard in mainland Europe. There is a bar/restaurant attached too. Would return.

This is a well located hotel close to lots of shopping and dining options. You can walk to Gamla Stan and SoFo easily. The breakfast was very good with lots of variety. The queen room was small but comfortable. The bathroom was tiny and badly designed, making it hard to find space to put things and hard to even fit into the shower!
