Stilfullt hotell med bra läge!
Pros:

Toppen läge! Trevlig personal, och så otroligt fin inredning på hela hotellet.
Lyxig frukost!

Cons:

Vi bodde i ett dubbelrum och ett enkelrum, och det var stor skillnad i temperatur på rummen. Enkelrummet var bara 18,5 grader, det fanns ett litet värmeelement inställt men det gjorde ingen större skillnad tyvärr.

Living the highlife in Stockholm
Pros:

A fabulous hotel, with a perfect mix of history and modernity. Unlike most hotels it wasnt a soulless box, everything is individually styled, and a surprising feature round every corner.
You could be sat at their contemporary bar set in a 9th century space with high ceilings, travelling up in a lift that could be straight out of the film 'Grand Budapest Hotel', or resting in your uniquely decorated room with French doors open and a view of the street below.
And the breakfast and breakfast location are a sight to.behold!
Location is in the centre, surrounded by restaurants, bars and open spaces.

Cons:

Im not great with heights so the view down to the street from our room meant I found it difficult to enjoy the scene, much to my wifes amusement.
The rooms are perfectly safe with high railings, this is more about my pathetic approach to heights. Felt I should just put something in this bit so I didnt leave this section blank.

Прекрасный отдых!
Pros:

Старинное здание отеля, завтраки, персонал, лифты, интерьер, расположение. Большое спасибо персоналу отеля за помощь и доброту.
У моих детей обычно утром нет аппетита, поэтому на завтраках они почти ничего не ели. Но через час после завтрака они всегда начинают просить то, что было на "шведском столе" в отеле. Я брала с завтрака по бутерброду для детей, они с радостью съедали их во время прогулок по городу. Спасибо, что закрывали на это глаза, ведь с завтрака нельзя выносить еду.

Cons:

Не было пандуса в двух местах и приходилось вытаскивать детей из колясок, а потом снова садить, если они спали в колясках. Но персонал отеля помогал поднимать коляски, поэтому это была не большая проблема.

Jag är van att bo där när jag är i Stockholm. Det är centralt, avslappnande atmosfär, god mat, fina blommor att plocka med sig på rummet och framför allt en fantastisk personal

Cons:

Inget

В целом неплохо, но есть проблемы
Pros:

Отличное месторасположение, до основных достопримечательностей 10-15 минут пешком, рядом много кафе и магазинов. Отдельной похвалы заслуживает завтрак - вкусно и разнообразно, много фруктов, хорошая выпечка. Но в выходные много людей и очень тесно на завтраке.

Cons:

Рядом ночные клубы (работают до 3 утра), слышна музыка, пьяные компании всю ночь кричат и не дают спать. Это самый большой минус отеля. Номер, в котором я жил, на 6 этаже явно требует ремонта. Одна розетка на весь номер, что очень неудобно.

Okej
Pros:

Bra läge, toppen frukost.

Cons:

Ostädat, halvdrukna flaskor i kylen, använda öronproppar på golvet. Trots att vi pratade med hotellpersonalen hände inget.
