Right on the main strip so very convenient for walking or using transportation. Could hear some traffic at night because of the location but that may have just been because it was over the weekend.

The only complaint is that the weather was quite warm and we had to open our windows....sadly, the traffic was very loud all night, but of course, not the hotels fault. The staff and breakfast was exceptional!
STEVE, 1-night trip

Ideal stopover - nice historical feel for a charming1910 property overlooking old town and harbour, 5 minutes walk to downtown bars and restaurants. Great transport connections and ideal for our archipelago cruise departure jetty.
Stephen, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved the architecture, and the fact that it was built in the first few years of 1900. The staff was exceptional. Breakfast was included and it was excellent. The gal taking care of the food was very friendly. The nights were warm and later we found that we could have asked for a fan. We just thoroughly enjoyed our stay and your beautiful city.

Jonathan, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved staying at the Esplanade. The charm and character of the entire building was incredible. From the delicious breakfast spread each day to the relaxing sitting room upstairs to the outdoor balconies - we couldn’t get enough. We had split our trip between two different hotels and in the end were wishing we had stayed with the Esplanade for the entire time! Staff were all helpful and friendly. Will absolutely be back!
Jessica, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel has a very relaxed and homely feeling to it with wonderful staff. The bed was comfortable and good showering facilities. Coffee and tea available all day in the downstairs lounge. Breakfast very good with homemade bread. Situated opposite some of the boat trip berths and in easy walking distance of most of Stockholm's tourist attractions.
Richard, 4-night trip

One of our very best stays in Europe, excellent common areas great staff outstanding location
François, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Hotel Esplanade is a unique hotel. It is wonderfully “dated” with character and comfort. We stayed in a very nice and spacious suite with a harbor view. As we stayed for 5 nights, an improvement would be a dresser to unpack and store clothing more easily. The hotel has a fantastic, friendly and helpful staff. We especially appreciated Joanna at the front desk. The breakfast was quite nice and well taken care of. Great location makes it very highly recommended in every way.
Mark, 5-night trip
