Great place! Nice and clean. Breakfast buffet was the highlight…amazing spread. Only couple of negatives - there was construction in the property. Was a little inconvenience. Location is not great. Right on the edge of a commercial port and a little away from central Stockholm

Me and a partner were traveling in Stockholm for one night and got stranded when our original lodging got cancelled. We needed something affordable and while it was a bit out of our price range (we had our original lodging for free), the room was only $211 for the night. We were expecting it to be on the lower end of lodging locations but were pleasantly surprised. The room was so nice and the hotel was styled so cool. Awesome amenities AND air conditioning. We highly recommend

Scandic Sodra Kajen is walking distance from the Tallink Silja harbor. Scandic Sodra is very well connected to the city center. There is a bus stop 5 minutes walk from the hotel that will take you to all the central attractions. There is also a Metro Gardet station a little farther away but still walkable that provides great connection to Arlanda Airport. The hotel room was very spacious, the staff very helpful and courteous. The hotel provides excellent breakfast!! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this hotel.

Lovely hotel, with very good staff. Check in was painless and our room was ready before the usual check in time. We had a great view from the 12th floor of the ferry dock and it was great to see them coming in and out each day. Only negative I would have to say is that the area is pretty desolate. Nearest places to eat outside the hotel are a 20 minute walk away, although a supermarket is next door. Thankfully the bus service into the city was great and ran like clockwork.
