#4
We were a family of 4 and stayed at the hotel for 2 weeks.
I’ll start with the location- the hotel is situated on djurgarden island which consists of Stockholm’s best walking trails - prins eugens, rosendal, the bay and the woods- all are wonderful options for a nice walk. Moreover- you have Skansen, gronalund, lilievalchs and nordiska museet at walking distance.
Second is traffic- tram no 7 from the hotel (every 7 minutes) goes to all major tourist places or to t-centralen, where you can take the metro to anywhere else. Another great option is the boat from the end of the street where gronalund is - take 82 to the modern museum or gamla stan (the old city) or take 82 to where the boats to vaxholm/archipelagos take off. Both 80/82 boats are part of the SL public traffic system - so it’s always fun to use the SL card when boarding.
Now the hotel itself - spacious rooms, clean, taken care of, and all those small details - a great soap in the bath/shower, good size towels, very good breakfast (but not over the top) including fresh fruit, vegs, eggs, yogurt and so on.
The staff is very nice and attentive and really make you feel welcome at all hours.
The hotel has a bar too which is good for meeting friends.
Last but not least - the ABBA experience- you are on vacation and ABBA is the perfect vacation music band. Their pictures on the wall, their music in the lounge, the shop, the museum - you will, as promised, walk in and dance out.
I absolutely recommend staying here!
