“On my last day I was leaving at 0520 so too early for breakfast, but a substantial breakfast box feat an apple, yoghurt, cereal, orange juice and bread roll with meat/cheese/veg was given to me which I thought was fantastic and much needed at that hour!”

charmed by my stay

central location easy access early check-in

i found the location convenient, being a short walk from the central train station and the central shopping district. gamla stan and other tourist spots were also easily accessible (a true bonus for sightseeing). we were allowed into our room early, which i really appreciated. the breakfast had a great range of foods, especially those tasty pancakes.

i noticed that the restaurant and bar had limited opening hours. they didn't open until 5 pm and closed quite early at 9 pm. i wished for longer operating times or for the reception to sell alcohol and snacks, similar to what i have seen at other hotels.

Dining

the hotel breakfast offered a varied buffet with excellent choices, ranging from fresh fruit and cereals to hot food like eggs and pastries. drinks included coffee, tea, and juices, with many options available. i thought this was a great way to start the day.

convenient location early check-in gluten-free option small room lacking closet entryway blocking

the location is really convenient. i could easily walk to the central train station. the breakfast buffet included a large selection of food with gluten-free options. i appreciated being able to check in earlier than planned.

my room lacked a closet. i had to leave some items partially blocking the entryway. the room felt quite small. there was no space to unpack my clothes properly.
