Below average, even for Sweden’s (poor) standards of hospitality and service. No elevator, no help with luggage, leaky shower, blocked closet, few and old power outlets, tiny room. But great location, big windows, and nice authentic old Swedish interior. And inexpensive for the area.

Exceptional hotel- showcasing the absolute best of Art Deco design. The whole place is a treat - beautiful architecture and furniture throughout. We loved how historical and authentic it is. We stayed in the gorgeous Room 10, with French balcony overlooking the harbour, which is both very spacious but also cosy, because it’s almost circular! Lovely comfy sofas, very tasteful blue and gold decor. Staff were incredibly helpful and very welcoming. Breakfast is really lovely. Many thanks!

The Esplanade is in an older, charming building. The hotel was located, I believe, only on the first two floors of the building, which has a lot of charm and character. I didn't feel the lack of an elevator because our room was on the 2nd floor but this could be a problem for some. If people need the modern amenities, this isn't the place for them but the location was fantastic (across from the water) and you could feel the history of the place. The breakfast and available coffee/tea on the main floor were very nice. It is very easy walking distance to the old town Gamla Stan and many of the museums and other places of interest so really an excellent location for a stay in Stockholm.

Old world charm

It’s an old hotel but that is part of its charm. It is very clean and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The location is superb. Asking distance to the Vasa, Abba, National Museum, the Palace, the Nordic Museum. There’s a small public balcony facing the harbor that is a great spot to people watch. Lobby is very small but again, it’s an older style of hotel which is a nice change from the fancier newer hotels.

Extremely disappointing stay, felt like a scam. Peer hotels in the same street are way superior for the same price. Unfortunately, it did not meet my expectations for $400 per night. The hotel is very old, and this is evident in the outdated facilities and design. The fact that there is no elevator was not mentioned anywhere in the listing, which made it inconvenient to carry luggage to our room. With only around 30 rooms it felt like a small/ low cost hotel. There was only one employee available in the afternoon and night. This limited the assistance we could receive and made the service feel inadequate. There was no official bar, and the one employee available had to make our drinks, which felt unprofessional. Additionally, there was no room service at all, which was very disappointing. The wifi connection in the room was terrible, making it difficult to stay connected, and there was no air conditioning, which made our stay uncomfortable, especially during the warmer nights. We paid $400 per night, and for the price, it felt like a scam. Compared to peer hotels right beside them, such as the Diplomat Hotel, which offer far superior amenities and services at the same price, this was a complete outrage. We stayed in the Diplomat Hotel for a couple of nights for the same price, and it's way superior than Esplanade Hotel (no point of comparison). The price is completely unjustified for what they offer. Terrible experience, I would actually like a refund.
