Hotel Drottning Kristina Stureplan merged by Grand Hotel Grouop.”

Thanks to Agoda and Grand Hotel, We had an alternative stay at Grand Hotel instead of Drottning Kirstina Stureplan. So the review is about Grand Hotel Stockholm. Everything was perfect; location, cleanliness, staff, breakfast and spa/sauna/pool. We will come back to Grand hotel someday if we have chance to visit Stockholm again.

Sweet Stockholm Stay”

Comfortable, Great Breakfast, Ideal Location

Within a day, we became acquainted with key areas of Stockholm and realised how well positioned Hotel Sturplan is in the city. Positioned a block from a subway station and amidst shopping areas, lovely neighbourhoods, sidewalk cafes, and popular waterfront attractions, it's a surprisingly quiet and really comfortable stay. Staff were without exception very helpful, and the charming old features of the building contributed to the appeal of this accommodation. The breakfast is absolutely perfect -with smiley faces in our lattes, quality produce, hot eggs and meat, cold meats and cheeses, herring, breads, yogurts, and more. Our room was classically Scandinavian -light and airy with tall ceilings and large windows. The windows did not open, but the in-room climate control (AC) settings worked well on the warmer days of our stay. The room, bath, and common areas were clean and well-maintained. I would stay at Hotel Stureplan again in a heartbeat.

Lovely intimate room

Very nice hotel, clean and simple. The way I like it. The room is so nicely done, it just makes you feel so homely. Good breakfast, and very good service. For the location and standard of the hotel, I would say that the price is definitely worth it. Will be coming back again, if not, will be recommending my family and friends if they even decided to visit Stockholm.

Quiet and comfortable”

This hotel is a conversion of three old residences in a fashionable suburban street, so is a strange mix of styles and spaces internally. Rooms vary a great deal in size and outlook and the hotel lacks really spacious common areas. But the staff are helpful and friendly, and the location central with easy access to public transport. There is a reasonable breakfast and good room service, but no formal dining room.

Toilet paper and A/C”

Decent hotel, but for a 4 star you’d think they would include a better than industrial public bathroom toilet paper. Also, technically a/c was on and working, but it just felt like it was just a fan blowing some air around. It wasn’t too hot outside though, so it was ok. Otherwise the room and bathroom were great. Large room and a huge shower. Breakfast was great. Good coffee. No need to go to any coffee shops.

Nice and Elegant Hotel”

Rooms very well equiped. Very good beds Good bathroom Excellent lighting Good electronic equipment Good breakfast
The bar is a bit boring, no real lounge area to relax

If you get a bit tired of the new design hotels, in which very often the appareance counts more than the quality of finishing, this hotel will please you. Back to a kind of "old-fashioned" but elegant style. Not glancy, but high quality. The only negative aspect is a lack of real relaxing lounge-type area, where you can have a drink or work in WiFi at night, with some music.

Extremely small room”

Reservation made 4 months in advance with the notice that we will be there few hours early. Instead of waiting one more hour for the regular check in time, we took another room "in the same price range, slightly smaller". That meant about 40-50 cm space on 3 sides of the bed. We did lots of exercises jumping over our 4 bags. Ready to say the breakfast was one of the best, but last day wife told me to avoid the bad smelling salami...
