We stayed here for 5 nights. It’s a charming older hotel that met all our needs. We appreciated the roof terrace and loved the breakfast buffet
Carl, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel enjoys a fantastic location near the metro station, making it easy to get around. While the rooms are relatively small and on the pricier side, the exceptionally friendly staff and outstanding breakfast more than make up for it.

Convenient for Gamla Stan

Clean & convenient hotel. Has an old school feel to it; quirky, small, old wooden lift for example! The room was dated, was aiming at cosy but felt like staying in a grandparent’s house that hadn’t been decorated for 20yrs. Weird pictures on the walls! Otherwise, great location for the Old Town, felt safe, staff weren’t that friendly but definitely helpful & the manager was great. Breakfast was a little lacklustre but fine.

We love staying here. The room is pretty, with a very comfy bed and bedding. The new bathroom is so clean. The location is perfect. We could walk to everything! The staff, especially in the breakfast room, are efficient and welcoming. And the roof terrace is a lovely place to enjoy a rest after a busy day of being a tourist.

A beautiful and comfortable old hotel with a fantastic breakfast located near shopping and restaurants and within walking distance of museums and the Royal Palace.
Doug, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was my second stay at the Gamla Stan Scandic. My stay last year was perfect so why not try it again. I love this hotel. The staff is friendly, accommodating and very helpful. The rooms are small but totally adequate. There’s a great sitting area on the roof. Breakfast has everything you could want and more and the location is within walking distance of everywhere we wanted to go.

The receptionist was incredibly helpful to us. Our flight had been delayed and she was very instrumental with getting us transportation to the airport and very accommodating when we found out that our flight was delayed.
Michael, 1-night trip

Came back and enjoyed my stay again.

The service by hotel staff was great. The room was clean. The room had a nice view. Breakfast offering was good. The rooftop area was a great place to go up to and have your breakfast or read a book. If you need a snack or coffee throughout the day (or night) the small lobby offerings were great.

Central location in a less busy part of old town. Rooms are small but great size if traveling solo or in pairs.

Jody, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Upgraded to the bigger room in the fourth floor and it was a really cozy spot to recover from jet lag. Upon arriving I noticed the dead bolt did not work in the room and it took a day for it to be repaired but then when I checked it, it still didn’t work. It would have been nice to have that extra security as a woman traveling alone. The breakfast was great and the room was very clean. The water pressure in the shower was incredible. Would recommend
