Great new hotel within walking distance of the centre/attractions etc.

I was a little concerned at first that this was slightly north of the centre, but a 20minute walk can get you almost anywhere and if that fails, the T-Bana (underground) is only £1.60. Nearest station is OdenPlan (three stops on the green line from Central).

The room was very large and well decorated - modern clean lines, with a great black marble bathroom with power shower. It also had personal heating controls and a large plasma screen TV with around 18 channels, including several English language stations.

As always in Europe it seems, the bed was two twins pushed together, not a double. However, was very comfortable. There are no extra bits in room eg: coffee/tea maker; however, this can be requested free of charge.

There is wi-fi available throughout the hotel free of charge and a couple of computers in the lobby. There was also a free sauna downstairs, but I didn't get around to trying it.

The breakfast was very good. Hot bacon, sausages, scrambled eggs and toast, alongside cold meats, cheeses, rolls etc.

The hotel staff were extremely friendly and helpful. (The only problem with this is that they're so friendly we had to wait at reception for ages, while they nattered to the people in front us.) But they were always willing to help and give advice on restaurants/attractions etc.

There were several nice restaurants within walking 5-10mins walk, including a pizzeria and an excellent European restaurant (steak, risotto etc.) called 'Vimmel' - the chocolate souffle was amazing. (Both located on the road running south from hotel)

The food everywhere was expensive, as expected, with main courses about £14 and a bottle of wine £24+. Also, some restaurants didn't include the 25% tax/service change in the prices. However, the food and service everywhere was excellent.

Entry to all the tourist attractions was cheap though...mostly hovering around the £4 mark. Skansen was particularly good...especially the "ever popular elk".

The hotel only opened on 1st October 2007, so I wasn't sure what to expect.
The hotel staff are excellent, we arrived late on a Friday evening, and were greeted by a very helpful receptionist, who checked us in straight away, and recommended several nearby restaurants which would still be open for food. The rooms are a good size, with a shower (ours did not have a bath), and wireless internet access at no extra charge.

We were not overly impressed with the breakfasts (no croissants etc) but you can get by with toast/fruit/yoghurt etc as there is quite a big selection.

Overall, excellent service and a lovely room, breakfast wasn't brilliant, but I would recommend any couple/business traveller to stay there.

I wasnt sure what to expect with this hotel as it only opened in October and there were no previous reviews but the whole stay all in all was excellent.
We were greeted on arrival by a very friendly receptionist and were booked in within minutes, we then went to our room which was fantastic, it had a wooden floor and modern black furniture with dark pink seating and bedding. The bathroom was tiled and extremely clean and it even had heated flooring which was a nice luxury to have, the shower was powerful and very spacious. The room had an lcd tv on the wall too.
Breakfast was included with our room, the dining area had an asian theme and was very clean. The food itself was delicious, there was a wide range to choose from to cater for every taste.
In the reception area were two computers that you could browse the internet for free, there were free newspapers and plenty of seating. The bar was only small, but adaquate, they sold bar meals as well as drinks.
The location of the hotel was not central but it was only a ten minute walk to one of the main streets where you could find plenty of shops and restaurants, from there you could get on the tube, which took 5 minutes into central Stockholm.
If I had to pick faults with this hotel, the only thing I can think of is that the duvet was too warm and the room was a bit basic.
Overall I was very impressed with this hotel, the staff were friendly and helpful and the hotel was very modern and clean. I would definately stay there again .
