When we walked into the nice large lobby, we were expecting a nice room, too. The room was small and very plain. The biggest surprise was the bathroom. The bathtub/shower was more like a metal drum cut in half with legs attached. It was very hard to step up to get into it. It was not very sturdy and made... More

The hotel's location is almost next to the central station (train&bus) and also very next to a subway-station, so perfect for tourists, but also business travellers using public transport. Hotel is a typical 80ies place with "hundreds" of rooms, which are small but do offer all - including iron, ironing-board, van........ rooms would need some refurbishment..... painting etc. Hotel staff...

For me the experience has been great, given that I stayed there for a week and for working purposes, the hotel was perfect for me. The breakfast has a huge variety of things, with more than OK quality for me; it also spans for a nice timeframe so you can go to the hotel's gym before that... or you can... More

This is a large fairly modern hotel that is centrally located, but in a quiet place (Kungsholmen). The hotel is business-like and not big on cosieness (is there such a word?) or typical Swedish things. Plenty of eateries in the vicinity as well as at the hotel. Bar was lively, with sports bar next door. City Hall and Central Railway... More

We stayed there last September. The only thing which is nice in that hotel is the lobby area. Other then that, it is rubbish for the price you pay. Everything in the room was made of plastic, the toilet, the bathtub, the sink etc. It looks like somekind of refugee camp. One might as well stay at an ETAP HOTEL.... More

This is a hotel in a very nice area of Stockholm. Several good restaurants in the area. Great communications, the subway entrance is right on the corner of the hotel. Excellent! Some of the main sightseeing areas are within walking distance, and all of them can be reached easily with public transport. The hotel staff was very nice and polite,... More

Stayed here on a weekend business trip. The location is very convenient - just a short walk from the central train station and Arlanda Express, and in a neighborhood that seems to have a lot of nice little restaurants and cafes. I arrived around 9 pm on a Friday, and the whole lobby/bar/restaurant area seemed to be full of people,... More

We stayed at the First Amaranten for a Bruce Springsteen concert on a weekend in May 2013. The hotel is large and not very modern but rooms are spruced up and very comfy. The duvets in particular were heavenly (hence the name, Nordic, hehe). Breakfast was a bit hectic as the hotel is large and most of the rooms were... More

Overall a good hotel. Nice lively bar and good breakfast. Stayed 2 nights on business trip. Kept awake by road cleaners from 11 to 12.30 and by an event. Lots of shouting in street in front of hotel. Receptionist recommended the courtyard rooms for future stays... would stay again but not in room at front.

The best thing about this hotel is the proximity to the train station, which is just round the corner, the worst thing, it has some of the oldest rooms i've seen... The first night i arrived, they had given away my room to someone else, despite having confirmed reservations, although they put me up in another hotel for the night,... More
