I loved the location in Old Town. There were many dining and shopping options in the surrounding blocks. Also it was very close to Metro, Bus, and Commuter Ferry stops. The facilities were very nice, excellent breakfast.

The property has charm and is located close to what we wanted to see. The morning breakfast was excellent. The “old town” location comes with some noise challenges from the Metro trains and service trucks. Keeping windows open adds noise. It may not be practical, but a/c units in guest rooms are called for.

Staying here felt like home. From the warm greeting each time we came in to the INCREDIBLE breakfast each morning, we were thrilled to be staying here for 5 nights. The room itself was more spacious than any other we’d had in a month of travel and the room had everything we needed (proper desk, mini fridge, mirrors, closet, outlets, hair dryer, great water pressure) The kitchen manager, Oscar, made mornings feel like you were at your childhood home as they took such pride in the atmosphere, quality of food and presentation. He even had an outstanding selection of gluten free food since I have celiac disease. The location in Old Town was perfect and close to everything. During the Summer the streets have flower boxes everywhere & are closed to car traffic so you can walk everywhere. This place is 1 block off the main streets so nights were quiet and we slept so well. We will surely stay here again on our next trip to Stockholm.

We loved our stay at Scandic Gamla Stan. Fantastic location. The hotel is a few streets off of the busy area, so it is quieter but also such a close walk. The staff was super friendly. Breakfast was wonderful!

Great location and breakfast, but.....
Pros: Staff was very friendly and helpful. Cesar runs a great breakfast and is happy to accommodate any special requests, if possible. Amazing location in Gamla Stan. Cons: Shower was tiny (see attached picture). I am only 5' 3" and 112 lbs and I regularly hit the door with my elbow opening the shower door and getting the bathroom wet. Room was very warm due to unexpected warm weather and the fan was insufficient. Windows can't be opened because the outside noise is extremely loud (people, trash truck) - ask for a room not facing the street. Room 207 was fine for one person but if 2 people, someone would have to climb into bed from the foot because there is a piece of furniture against the bed so no access to one side of the bed.

Great location. We walked from the main train station to this hotel (about 15 minutes). The hotel is in a great spot, easy to explore old town and great food options around. The hotel is old (to be expected in this location) but well kept. The room was hard to cool. The breakfast included was great!

We love Stockholm as tourists, and love the old town (Gamla Stan), just don't want to end our vacation here. This hotel has everything one needs when visiting Stockholm, superb location with subways and water taxi right next to it, food and drink steps away, tourist attractions, and views.... The hotel staff is very helpful and friendly, and breakfast is very nice, lots of varieties.
