"We were so pleased with the location of Hotel Gamla Stan, so closed to everything. It's a very old building which makes it evern more interesting to stay there. We had a quadruple room which was comfortable and very clean. Staff were really helpful. "

"Clean room, fresh bedsheets. All you need for a good night sleep after a long day of visiting the city. The building itself and lobby are very attractive and in a nice location on Sodermalm. The common shower rooms/toilets were adequate. Overall, good for the price."

"Quirky and fun. Don't expect a lot and you will enjoy it. It is basically a 1950's cruise ship. Good value for Stockholm. I went for a Private Bathroom suite which was very quiet but basic. Bathroom tiny. But hey - I would come back as it is only a short walk to the Old Town. Amazing views of Sto..."

"I was quite impressed about how well a hotel can serve it's guests with little effort and space. Clean, neat, practical, easy, good breakfast... but the room really was small, which did not bother me but might bother people travelling with large luggage."

Where to stay in Stockholm
One of the best-preserved medieval city centers in Europe, Gamla Stan (Stockholm’s Old Town) dates back to 1252. A quirky area famed for its fairytale gold-colored buildings, the neighborhood is filled with museums, shops, bars, and cafés. Norrmalm is home to some of the city’s top attractions, as well as department stores and typical Scandinavian boutiques. This is the place to stay for culture, restaurants, and nightclubs. Djurgården is a green oasis, with large open spaces, parks and a forest that’s perfect for walks and cycling. If you stay in a low-cost guesthouse in Stockholm’s Djurgården district, you’ll be close to many most popular landmarks and pretty picnic spots.
How to get to Stockholm
Stockholm Arlanda Airport is the largest of the four airports in Stockholm and just 25 miles from the city center. From here you can make your way into the capital within 40 minutes on the Flygbussarna Airport Coaches—coaches depart every 10-15 minutes. Alternatively, hop on one of the twice-hourly trains from Arlanda Central Station in Sky City, arriving into Stockholm in 40 minutes. The easiest (and cheapest) way of getting round Stockholm is on foot. The many islands linked by bridges can be confusing at first, but it’s easy to get the hang of, and locals are always happy to help out.
