Elite Hotel Savoy
Front rooms very noisy (street noise). Food service lacking (it was midsummer holiday, everything was closed, they made no accommadations for business travelers.)...More

Scandic Park Stockholm
Traveling with my husband and 7 year old daughter, we felt we really lucked out on the location of this hotel. We wanted to visit (the usual) Stockholm sights in the Djurgarden island -- Skansen, Junibacken, Grona Lund (the amusement ark) and the Vasa Museum. All were accessible easily by bus number 44 which stops right across the street from the hotel (the 7-11 next to hotel sells bus tickets). Gamla Stan (the old town) is also very easy to get to by Tunnelbana (the subway), the closest station is Stadion and only a few blocks from the hotel. The Humlegarden park with its playground was fun for my daughter, and once you go through the park, you're right in the swing of things in the center of Stockholm. Perfect! And, for those who will take the Silja ferry to Helsinki, Finland or to Talllinn, Estonia, the bus (number 1) to the ferry terminal stops outside the hotel. The rooms were clean and we loved the Scandinavian flair in the furniture and the hotel lobby. I would recommend this hotel especially to families (very family-friendly, restaurants have kids' menu, balloons, etc.)....More

Elite Hotel Residens
We stayed at the Hotel Elite Residens in Malmo for 11 nights in August-September, 2009 due to a wedding in our family. There were others in our family group staying there as well, taking an additional four rooms. The staff were always extremely helpful to us--very friendly and professional. The hotel decor is lovely. The room was a good size, clean, and quite comfortable, except for the desk chair which was more of a short-backed dining chair and not comfortable for working very long at the desk. Wireless internet is included but you have to provide a new username and password (which they will happily give you as often as you need) every three hours to stay connected--that was annoying. The included-breakfast was a full, Scandinavian breakfast with a wide selection of meats, cheeses, eggs, bread, cereals, crackers, etc. Delicious. The location is excellent--across the street and canal from the central train station, and within walking distance to the old city and numerous squares for shopping and eating. The only real down-side was that our room opened to a busy street and, like most hotels in Malmo, there was no air conditioning, so on warm nights with the window open, it was quite noisy. Most nights are cool though in Malmo, and the hotel does provide fans if requested, so we were able to adjust. If this would be a problem for you, I would suggest requesting a room away from the street. Over all, we loved our stay there and would highly recommend this hotel....More
