We had a great stay at Scandic Gamla Stan. Knowing we would get into Stockholm before check-in, I contacted the hotel and they said they would be able to hold our bags, so we could explore, which is so amazing! When we got there, they actually said our room was ready, so we were able to check in early!! The room was small, but perfect. Very clean hotel in a great area, quiet, historic, lovely. On our last day they held our bags while we explored the city more before our flight. Very lovely, very accommodating hotel.

Overall a good experience. Great location and amazing views from the rooftop! Surprisingly quiet given its a historic building and I thought the walls might be thin. Bathroom needed some more detailed cleaning (mould on the grout, hair in corners). Pillows and mattress topper also lumpy and too small.

The property is in a great location in Gamla Stan but keep in mind it is an older building so the rooms are quite small. Breakfast was very nice. No A/C which shouldn't usually be a problem. Also, a bar up the street is open quite late with people outside - perhaps it was because of World Cup but the noise on a Friday night went pretty late. Staff were kind and helpful.

The welcome was warm. The room was spacious and clean and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom was well designed and the shower was lovely and powerful. The location was excellent in busy Gamla Stan but still very quiet and relaxing. The breakfast was amazing - loads of choice and well prepared. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel!
