Nice hotel, special we got good price, compared with others in Stockholm.

Also, we had a early check in ( 12 noon ) as requested. Staff in the reception very polite and friendly.

Good location, clean rooms and confy beds. The triple room had the 3rd bed, folding off the wall ! Not as expected but ok.

The breakfast was good, apart the coffee !, which was horrible ! Take my advice and have tea instead lol :)

There was no kettle in the room though - take your own - very handy !

Overall a very good stay.

“A taste on how it feels to be in jail”

Ok, the hotel is nicely located in Stockholm, walking distance from most places, but once inside you feel like you've been caught by the gestapo.

Corridors are ugly, with plain doors in light wood, and awful posters on the walls. Once inside, the room is smaller than you'd give for you guinea pig, and almost have to sit on the toilets to have your shower.

“Noisy, hectic, we did not like it”

The hotel is in a very busy area, sleeping with window open is impossible. Parking your car is not possible, not even to just unload suitcases (taxi's are blocking the entrance). Desk staff is unfriendly. Breakfast is very hectic, much too many people, you have to eat with a plate on your lap, or standing if you are not lucky. Nice is a special children's corner. Elevators are nuisance, one has to stand in line each time for going up and down, capacity not sufficient, and they are among the smallest I have ever seen.
All in all, we would not return there, there are much better hotels in Stockholm

  • This TripAdvisor Member:
    • Liked — children's corner in breakfast room
    • Disliked — noise and unfriendliness of staff

“Good location but quite noisy surroundings”

Scandic Malmen

Aug 22, 2007

We stayed at this hotel for two nights in August 2007. The location is excellent, with a metro station (Medborgarplatsen) directly below the hotel and with the Old Town on walking distance. There are a vast number of restaurants, bars and shops in the area around the hotel, so you will not have to walk far to find everything you need.
The room (and the hotel in general) was designed in a quite strict, Scandinavian style with wooden floor etc, and it depends on your personal taste if you like it or not. The room was clean and functional, as was the bathroom.
The breakfast was very good. In the evenings the breakfast room was turned into a restaurant, but we didn’t try out the food.
The only downside was that the area around the hotel was quite noisy due to the bars in the area (we stayed there during a weekend). So if you are very sensitive to noise when you’re sleeping you might want to choose another hotel, or ask for a room that doesn’t face the street.

“Great location, great value, small elevators”

Spent a week at this hotel and almost thoroughly enjoyed it. It's located in the heart of Sodermalm, the 'cool' part of Stockholm, across from a huge square with restaurants, pubs, coffeehouses, nightclubs, a cinema and a great selection of fast food joints (those my family and I tried were quite good -- and very economical for this expensive city). The adjoining streets are packed with more restaurants, pubs and coffeehouses -- along with a great selection of shops, ranging from H&M to upscale antiques with lots of boutiques and design stores thrown in.

The hotel literally sits atop a Tunnelbannen (subway, underground, Metro, or what have you) station, so the upscale and antique parts of Stockholm -- and all of its museums and downtown shopping -- are within really easy reach. We were constantly on the go.

We got a great deal on two twin rooms through Expedia. The accomodations were Swedishly small, but comfortable, aestehtically designed and well cared for. The bathroom was also small, but clean -- and everything worked. The buffet breakfast was copious, varied and tasty, though the coffee could stand more beans and more brewing.

The only thing I can find to criticize about the hotel is its 3 ridiculously small elevators. Sometimes it can take a while to find one with room -- and when they're full, the situation becomes quite intimate. But, everyone related to the situation with good humor.

We were very happy with this place. It was a terrific base from which to explore Stockholm and its surroundings.

  • This TripAdvisor Member:
    • Liked — Great value for Stockholm and a terrific location.
    • Disliked — The elevators were too small and too few.
