We loved the location of the hotel, which provides easy access to everything! Plus, the room was nice and clean. It was on the small side, but since we were only there to sleep, it wasn’t much of a problem for us. Be aware that there is no AC, and since the temperature was quite high during out visit, the room got very warm…

They don’t want loyalty they just all your money

Terrible check-in. I stayed often in Scandic hotels in Stockholm when visiting. Now I have to wait until 16:00 hours to check in without having to pay to 200 Swedish kronor for early check-in even though plenty of rooms was available since long. It makes you feel you are a valuable returning customer. Not! I will consider other options from now on in Sweden as this was appalling.

We loved the location; close to shops, restaurants, key attractions, and public transit. The employees were also quite lovely. The breakfast buffet had a lot of variety and was fresh and delicious. It would be nice if they could deep clean or change the carpet. Quite stained and grimy. I would stay here again!
