Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in an awesome location right across the street from a metro stop, making it perfect for my meeting. The rooms, although a bit smaller than expected, have rare windows and got a bit stuffy at night. The service was top-notch, with room service available, and the price was reasonable. The dining options were good but lacked a warm veggie choice. The location was very cool, surrounded by bars, cafes, and gardens, in a neighborhood where locals live.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. While the rooms were very basic with no storage space, they were surprisingly clean and adequate. The lack of furniture to store things was inconvenient, and the ambiance felt like a storage room rather than a cozy retreat. However, after moving to a quieter room, it was sufficient for my needs. The location of the hotel was excellent, just a minute away from Mariatorget metro station, with plenty of dining options and shops nearby.
The hotel is perfectly situated in a vibrant area, surrounded by cafes and restaurants, ideal for exploring Stockholm. The rooms are well-equipped with unique interior design, although a bit outdated. The bar on the ground floor adds to the cool vibe of the hotel, offering a simple yet tasty menu. However, the bathroom layout requires caution to prevent water from spilling. Overall, a great place to stay with minor room improvements needed.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, with comfortable rooms and a cool bar downstairs. The lack of a closet was a minor inconvenience. The location was great for exploring the trendy area with nice shops and cafes, and the breakfast was very good. The dining options could be more diverse, though.
The hotel offers comfortable and very clean rooms, particularly the bathroom, but could use a freshen up. The service is attentive and includes room service, dry cleaning, housekeeping, laundry, and a welcome drink. The location is ideal, near a subway station on a calm street, perfect for both leisure and business travelers. The dining options are excellent, with great coffee and a convenient location in the heart of the city. The facilities are top-notch, providing a pleasant stay overall.
The hotel is located in a nice area of hipsters and nice shops and coffee places, just opposite a metro station and very close to Södra railway station. The rooms, while missing coffee/tea facilities, kettle, and minibar, were cozy but small, facing a noisy hall. The dining options, although along the street and with an interesting lobby area, were a bit meager and not particularly gluten-free friendly.
