Ooooh, this place is fantastic! I've lived nearby for nearly two years and to be honest I only made…read moremy first venture inside recently - because, well, it looks expensive. And yeah, a lot of it is expensive - naturally; it's an Italian delicacy store. But it's so splendid! Although it's a tiny shop, it's remarkable how much they have packed into it. Bottles and bottles and bottles of deluxe olive oil, balsamic vinegar, tapenade, artichoke paste, pasta, biscuits, and so much more. They also have some fresh vegetables and even skin products like body butter. But the focus is definitely on food, as it should be. If I wanted to make a delicious Italian homemade meal (and who doesn't?) this is definitely where I stop. You can sample everything as well - when I went there were several bowls and bits of bread already out available for dipping in oils and vinegars, and the woman there said just to ask if we wanted to try anything else. She's very friendly, helpful, and talkative, and has some of the best customer service and most upbeat, cheerful attitude I've met in Swedish employees. It seems to be a family-run business, and they travel to Italy themselves to handpick the items - you can tell there's a lot of passion and knowledge that goes into running the store. Simply splendid! As I mentioned, it can be quite pricey, but they have such a variety that the prices of course vary as well - you can definitely find something that suits your taste and budget. Plus they have rainbow-striped pasta - my personal favourite just for fun!

Probably the smallest hotel rooms I've ever stayed in... and I've stayed in places in Tokyo! You…read morewalk into your room to be greeted by the bed and the bathroom has the shower uncomfortable close to the toilet. Yet, they still manage to fit in a small desk into the room and the balcony provides extra room to stretch while offering a nice view. Breakfast is available downstairs and was included with my room rate, as is wi fi. The train station is just around the corner, adding an extra star for location. Finally, the front desk is friendly and helpful to out of country guests - so don't be afraid to ask!

The reception is quite big and is combined with a bar and you always get the after-work feeling when you enter, cause there are always people here, hanging out. Not a very personal hotel and it has always been fully booked. The restaurant's menu is really good. I tried almost all their main dishes-very good, the salads being the favourites.

This hotel has a great location: it is a couple hundred feet from the convention center. It is also…read morejust a short walk to the train station. Rooms are small and efficient. They had a nice breakfast offering. Good value for money.

The Rica Talk Hotel is located in one of the southern suburbs of Stockholm. Note that it is not (as…read moreone previous review claims) located along one of the subway lines. It is however located close to the commuter train station Alvsjo. It is around 10 minutes by train from the central station but it is worth noting that the commuter trains do not run all night (the subway does) and in winter time the commuter trains are notorious for being late. Still the location is OK. If you are going to the fair it is located in connection to that so then it is an excellent location. The hotel itself is fairly new and it has a Scandinavian feel to it with light colors. The hotel staff were all very helpful and very polite. Check-in was very efficient and they made sure to ask if I wanted the Internet password. The room was also fairly nice and had the same type of design as could be seen in the lobby. Decent size as well which is nice for those who stay longer periods. Most things are fairly standard in the room; wireless Internet, TV, desk, a few chairs, 'minibar' (or at least some snacks, drinks etc - do note that there is no fridge so the drinks are not cold), water kettle, iron (very difficult to find) etc. The bathroom was also nice, no bath tub but I only stayed for one night so no problem. The only thing that annoyed me and I am actually not sure what they were thinking was the fact that they provide soap, shower gel and conditioner but no shampoo. For me it would make sense if they did not provide conditioner but still just a minor issue. The breakfast was great. Large selection of both hot and cold food. Numerous different types of bread (and even some sweets and pastries if that is your thing). The best part was without a doubt the juice/smoothie bar where they made fresh juice and smoothies. There was also an excellent selection of different newspapers. If I would have known that the breakfast was this good I would have made sure to have some more time to spend there. To summarize the hotel is a great choice for anyone who do not mind being based a little bit outside the city. The rates are rather low when there is not a fair going on so it is possible to stay at this hotel for a fairly good price.
