I've been to Stockholm 4 years in a row now and have never experienced discrimination until I…read morearrived at this hotel. I came in with my non-Asian coworker and he was helped at the desk while I waited right behind him. There were 3 employees at the front desk. An Italian family came up after me and they were waved over to be helped. I thought maybe the staff just didn't see me but then it happened again. Another European lady walks up and is waved over to be helped. I stepped up and asked why everyone is cutting me off in line and that's when the front desk said "oh sorry about that." After 18 hours of travel, this was a horrible way to start the week. I had a few coworkers staying at the hobo across the street and everytime I walked in to meet up with them, I was greeted by staff. I stayed there last year as well and didn't experience anything discriminatory. I assumed the Downtown Camper would be better since they have a few more amenities in the room such an iron and kettle but this was not worth it. Being treated like you are invisible ruins the entire experience. On top of that, it makes me look at Sweden in a different light. Right outside the hotel there was a group of men that proceeded to yell things like "ni hao Ching Chang Chong!" I expected more from a place/staff that is supposed to be hospitable and welcoming. While we cannot control what happens outside of the hotel, it would have been nice to feel safer in your hotel and free from judgement just because we don't look the same.

Hotel is super cute. They have this tree house and campground vibe and they really stuck with it…read more It's also really close to the train station, an easy walk. Rooms were clean and quiet. They have a bar, workout room, spa area, dining area, this cool neat thing you can lounge in, etc. kind of had a fancy hostel feel, except super expensive. Things to watch out for: adding breakfast with your room is not cheap, 48 USD is what we were told. Rooms are super hot and you don't have access to air and aren't able to turn the heat below around 70 Fahrenheit (and it's only fall, not winter), bar staff wasn't very friendly, we didn't ask for cleaning, specifically said we didn't want it, and someone still walked into our room the first day, terrace tables shown in the ads for the hotel are part of the spa and you can't access them if you don't want to pay, should be clear before hand. We had a good stay here, would say the biggest thing was the room heat issue and we'd wake up sweating each night and have trouble getting back to sleep. But hotel has no major issues, would just expect a little bit more in these areas for the price!

I have found that many fancy hotels put most of their money into how the lobby looks, but the guest…read morerooms are neglected. This is not the case at all in this hotel. The entry way to the hotel is stunning with a sweeping circular staircase, which is dramatic, but perhaps a bit scary for some people. large windows and a modern appearance made for an inviting welcome. As impressed as I was with the lobby, I was more impressed with the actual room, which was spacious and actually had room to unpack and store items. I loved the wood design (see photos) and the overall appearance of the room looked very Scandinavian. As noted by other reviewers, there is a hidden closet near the bathroom (which is also a bit hidden). The door swings out to reveal a hanging closet and a couple of storage drawers). The location of the hotel is perfect because it's very near the waterfront and very close to the old city. The access to restaurants and shops is close enough that you can walk anywhere. The included breakfast buffet was excellent with an egg station that made some of the best omelets I've ever tasted. I have nothing but good things to say about this hotel.

As a Hilton Diamond member, I recently stayed at the Hilton Stockholm Slussen and was blown away by…read moreits prime location and unique vibe. Nestled near the Slussen metro station, the hotel offers stunning views of Gamla Stan and Riddarfjärden, making it a perfect spot for exploring Stockholm's historic charm and Södermalm's trendy scene. Check-in was smooth, with the staff warmly acknowledging my Diamond status. The room was spacious, modern, and impeccably clean, with a comfy bed and those iconic floor-to-ceiling windows showcasing the waterfront. But let's talk about the design since nothing in this hotel is quite what you'd expect! Downstairs, the lobby and public areas are a maze of curves, with hardly a straight line in sight. It's like walking through a piece of modern art, which adds a fun, quirky charm to the experience. The room itself felt like a Jenga puzzle brought to life. The closets had an unusual, almost playful layout that made unpacking an adventure. The bathroom was anything but boring as its bold, unconventional design stood out with creative fixtures and a layout that kept things interesting. While the quirky aesthetics were memorable, they might not suit everyone's taste if you prefer straightforward functionality. The Diamond breakfast was a highlight, served in a bright space with a jaw-dropping view of the water and Gamla Stan. The buffet was fantastic, offering everything from fresh pastries and fruits to hot dishes and Swedish specialties like herring. The executive lounge, another great perk for those with access, was a stylish haven with tasty snacks, drinks, and that same gorgeous view. It was perfect for unwinding or catching up on work. The bar was a great spot for an evening drink, and the hotel's location made exploring nearby attractions a breeze. My only minor gripe was occasional Wi-Fi hiccups, but they didn't overshadow the stay. The gym and sauna looked nice, though I didn't get a chance to use them. For Hilton Diamond members, the breakfast and lounge perks elevate this hotel, and its bold design adds character you won't forget. The Hilton Stockholm Slussen is a fantastic choice for a unique, comfortable stay just be ready for some architectural surprises! I'd recommend it and would return, though I docked a star for the slightly impractical room layout.

It's also just a short walk from Gamla Stan and Riddarholmen. When we checked in, the staff at the front desk were very friendly. After a minor mishap with the first room we were given, the staff quickly made it right and reassigned us to an upgraded room. The bed was extremely comfy, the room was very spacious, as was the bathroom. One of my favorite features of the room was the rainfall shower. We did not try the hotel breakfast so I cannot speak to that, however they have a very nice rooftop bar with great views of the city that we spent some time at. I would absolutely stay here again, everything about our time at this Radisson was perfect!

We were originally booked in to stay at the nearby AC Hotel Stockholm Ulriksdal, which as soon as…read morewe walked into the room we knew wouldn't work for my allergies - enter in the Sheraton Stockholm Hotel. If you're considering both and not sure which to choose, I would definitely go with the Sheraton Stockholm Hotel, which for our stay was only $200 more in total. The lobby was spotless and bright, and our room was clean, well maintained, and felt airy and comfortable. Check in was simple and our room service was incredibly prompt during our stay - it was easy to order veggies, fries, or fruit for several evenings when I just didn't want to go out to eat. I do wish the pantry downstairs was better stocked with plain fruit versus fruit with spices or a vending machine so you could purchase drinks after the coffee shop closes. Staying here was also a neat exposure to Swedish design in that the sink had a button to press to be turned on that could also be twisted for temperature changes, and the lights had to be twisted instead of flipped to be turned on. While we didn't mind it, I'm not sure how accessible it is as my guess would be that it's difficult for those with dexterity issues, and we also found the incredibly high tub another questionable but interesting design choice. The room came with a desk, a chair, and some blackout shades, which when there's only five hours of darkness, almost felt like a requirement here and they also had a mini bar with drinks and snacks to choose from. Another positive for the Sheraton Stockholm Hotel is that while it's not as close to the airport, it was very centrally located to most of the highlights of Stockholm, which made is very walkable and easy to commute to and from. We did run into a taxi scam several times, where a taxi driver would accept the ride, and the car that showed up had a different license plate and the driver would try to have us take the ride off the app, so I'd order Uber Black or XL for any of your rides or book it directly with the hotel, as they'll be private drivers and not the taxis you're pared with for Uber Comfort or Priority. All in all, we really enjoyed our stay here and would absolutely recommend them.

Given that most Sheratons I've been to in the last ten years have felt a bit aged this one wasn't…read morehalf bad. I would recommend it to most travelers who aren't looking for something more luxury or boutique. It actually does feel almost kind of boutique. The design of place has a usually Swedish austere-ness to it but also feels a bit placed in its own time. It's not modern but it's not dated either. The lobby has warm reds and browns as primary colors but with a lot of light secondaries so it feels unique. The rooms are standard for this class of hotel but again with all kinds of touches that remind you that you are in a design-forward country. The bed headboard is quite tasteful, the coffee machine isn't smeg but it could be with its appearance, and a small speaker system looks equal parts vintage and modern. The staff are very pleasant, the location is very convenient, and the price isn't too bad. Recommended!

But it's got one large window in the room and we are right down the hall from the coffee and breakfast area. Works for us! It's super clean. The free breakfast buffet is really spectacular and the food is very fresh. The staff is attentive. Our room is quite small, and not much place to hang things, but this is likely a European standard. The bed is very comfortable. The bathroom has a moving wall since the shower is right next to the toilet. However, it's comfortable with a nice shower head, plentiful hot water and is easy to use. Main complaint is that almost the entire bathroom gets wet when you take a shower. I would definitely stay here again!

The rooms are on the small side and the bathroom was a little weird because the shower is literally right next to the toilet with a moveable glass door. The shower literally sprays all over the bathroom.

It was spotty at best to non existent. The breakfast in the morning was good. There were a ton of options and something for everyone.

Also, it was easy to catch an Uber from here (Uber here in Europe is awesome - picked up by an Audi or a Mercedes Bens lol). We didn't spend much time in the hotel, just a place to sleep. We came a little earlier than check-in but we were still able to get to our room. Lucky we were able to get a room with a window! Complimentary breakfast was plentiful and delicious! I came up with a list of Swedish foods that I wanted to try and most were present there at the breakfast spread. Especially the meatballs! We were only in Sweden for one day so this came to be very helpful. We booked through United and for one night it was ~$115. We had a really restful sleep and were not bothered by any noise from other rooms. Our only downside was that we did feel very cold at night and that we couldn't regulate the heat.

We walked from the hotel to the Vasa Museum which was awesome. The hotel was great. We had a suite with a huge bathtub and shower. Who really has time to soak in a bath?

The hotel also had a great restaurant and bar downstairs which was great since we didn't want to have to bundle up to leave the hotel. We had burgers two days in a row for lunch, they were really good. The place itself is beautiful and service was great.

There is no A/C so we got a little warm, but we opened our window every evening for a couple of hours. One night we got a free jazz concert from the jazz bar across the street. I know not everyone would appreciate that, but I really enjoyed it. Our continental breakfasts pale in comparison to this hotel breakfast. You really don't need to go anywhere else when there is so much available - rolls and French bread, cheeses, meats, pastries, crepes, fruit, sausage, baked beans, eggs, and plenty of juice and beverage options. The only things I would change would be to add A/C (because Americans are spoiled by it) and a shower door that closes. Otherwise half of the bathroom is wet when you're done. Still, if I'm ever lucky enough to go back, I'd definitely stay here again.

The rooms are nice and very big for Scandinavia, with huge windows, which is a big plus. Some of the appliances in the rooms are a little dated, but other than that, no complaints. The staff at the hotel is extremely hospitable - they were happy to help us plan a day to the Archipelago, and when we had an issue with our sink, they fixed it immediately and also comped us a bottle of wine, handling it perfectly. Overall, I would definitely recommend it. If you do stay here, I would recommend Dryck Winebar for wine and small bites, as well as Hagabakeri for coffee and pastries. Both are just around the corner from the hotel.
