Scandinavian Breakfast was included, as a buffet in a bright, sunny room. Lots and lots of fresh food, our younger selves would have been overjoyed....it was perfect. My last travel in Europe years ago did not include a private bathroom and shower, so I was surprised and happy to have this at the Charlotte. The room was not huge by American standards but clean and comfortable with everything we needed, for a middle aged American couple with no recent European travel in years. There is free wi-fi which I will think of now always as "vee-fee". There is an Uppsalakort discount card available for reduced admissions at Uppsala hotels, museums, bus and train fare, and eateries but if you're gonna get, get it BEFORE if you can, there is a substantial discount applicable to your stay even at the Hotel Charlotte. We missed this because you must show the card at check-in. We loved Uppsala, too many things to do and see for our two day stay, with the castle, the medieval cathedral still very actively used, and the amazing museums and libraries all within easy walking for anyone moderately fit. We did not need or want a car. Had it rained, which it did not, public transport possibilities were readily available and cheap.

This hotel was surprisingly good for the price point. The front desk service was prompt and…read morehelpful. The room was small but had enough space for two adults who weren't spending a ton of time there. The included breakfast buffet was genuinely one of the best I've ever seen at a hotel. Huge array of options hot and cold and the pancake/crepes with whipped cream and strawberry jam were a hit! Only reason we didn't rank five stars was the shower. It was cramped and a bit slippery and the shower head was not high up and didn't angle into the shower; it angled straight down and couldn't be adjusted because there isn't a real shower door or curtain, just a pane of glass that swings out and is approximately one third the width of where a shower door should be!

It is a newly constructed building, across from the new train station on a street that now has a string of new office and apartment buildings. The lobby and lobby restaurant area is a large open space flanked by floor to ceiling glass, which makes the space feel open and airy. The guest rooms are very large, almost American in size, but are still very Scandinavian in style - wood laminate floors with minimalist, but functional & comfortable furniture. The beds are very comfortable as well and the bathrooms are very well appointed. The staff is very friendly and helpful as well.

Food in the bistro is about avrage but could be better and not much to choice from if you are a vegeterian or only eat chicken and fish. Breakfast is just above average and it dos the job for most people but the downside is they cut up so much fruits and after the pandemic and especially in Sweden it feels unhygienic and unsafe to eat. But in all breakfast is good. The rooms are ok nothing special but good and the cleaning staff is super friendly and helpful. The gym is good and has all you need to keep in shape, but the sauna and the showers need a makeover and more regular cleaning During my 3 nights the showers was not clean even if i told them after the first night that the show was full of hair and you could see the hair was from more intimate parts. So if the clean they showers, put up some hooks for towels, fix the bucket in the sauna like buying a new one, put a thermometer in the sauna and maybe add some hocks or shelving, a hairdryer the sauna would be a great pleace visit again. The best thing would be a phone with a direct line to reception so you could order drinks like water, coffee and fruit and so one without having to leave the sauna area as it is on a sperat floor in the building from the reception.

If you desire for your bed to have an actual mattress, do not stay here. There were no mattresses…read moreon our bed, just a thin pad on top of a boxspring. I was in pain for the four nights I had to stay there on business. And of course the only bedding was a down comforter, which means you either boil in your own sweat or are too cold, no middle ground. Additionally, every single day one of us would have to go down to the front desk to get our room key repaired, it would stop working. Pros: The lobby is beautiful, the breakfast is nice, but none of those things compensate for the painful bed. After about 6 hours of trying to sleep, the only reason you get up in the morning is to make the pain stop!

The Connect Hotel is a utilitarian hotel near the airport that offers a free shuttle bus (every 30…read moreminutes from about 4:00am to midnight) to and from Arlanda. For those who book cheap fares with long layovers like we did, Connect Hotel is perfect. There is nothing fancy here but it is quite nice. My traveling companion actually described it as "Ikea like." The hotel is clean, comfortable and quiet so we got a good night's rest before the last leg of our journey. There is a full bar in the evening -- which is great for a weary traveler. Their restaurant service exceeded expectations. You make your selections, pay at the bar and soon the food is delivered to your table in the commons area. You can eat it there or retreat to your room if you prefer. My traveling companion is vegan and though the menu did not offer vegan dishes per se, several items, including a hearty bulgar salad, were easily adapted to a vegan diet simply by omitting the cheese. I ordered a shrimp sandwich. The small shrimp (probably 36-40 size) were piled high on an open face sandwich dressed with mayo and garnished with a pickle and fresh veggies. Along with a side of fries it was a satisfying meal. Breakfast is served starting at 4:00am in the morning -- a definite plus for those with early flights. The breakfast buffet includes a selection of breads, cold meats and cheese, hard boiled eggs, yogurts, fruit, cereals, juices, coffee and tea. They also offer gluten free and lactose free options for those on special diets (which also worked well for my vegan companion). We ate our fill and caught the 7:00am bus to the airport, getting there with plenty of time to leisurely work our way through security and to our gate. So if you have an itinerary like ours, you'll find that the Connect Hotel should serve your needs well.

"Are we at IKEA?!" First words out of our mouth…read more AMBIANCE: ------------ The lobby is neat, clean, and well decorated. Definitely something out of an IKEA designers' collection. The staff welcomes you from behind the reception desk, which also operates as a bar! So of course we were immediately fond of this place. STAFF: ------- Staff is helpful and courteous, and can help you figure out the best way to visit neighboring areas. They were quick to help when I requested a bag of ice for my ankle (which has been slowly healing from a grade 3 sprain since May 15). Really appreciated their concern. ROOMS: --------- They are TINY! But they get the job done. The four of us shared between us a double bed and a bunk bed. The boys graciously took the bunk bed. :) The bathroom is even smaller. If you bend over while sitting on the toilet, you may bump your head on the sink counter. If you try to shower in the magical glass door compartment that has no tub but doesn't leak water, you may bang an elbow or knee. But nothing we can't deal with for such a good price! FOOD: ------- Basic complimentary breakfast of lunch meats, cucumber & tomato, cheese, bread, granola and yogurt, some fruits, and coffee. Lunch and dinner (and of course drinks) are available for separate purchase. LOCATION: ------------ Perfect if you need to stay close to the airport. Since we had only one night here for our layover on the way to Barcelona, this was the best location. It was only about a 15-20 minute Uber to downtown Stockholm. Transportation rocked. A designated bus picked us up at the airport, dropped us off at the hotel, and brought us back to the airport the next morning. Very convenient! TIP: This will do the job and fit your travel budget. DATE TIP: Not the most romantic rooms for a getaway. Would recommend looking elsewhere! :D
