Scandic Grand Central

The staff was very friendly and I really appreciated how conveniently located the hotel is in the city. Almost everything I wanted to do was either a 20 minute walk or 15 minute bus/train ride away.

We really enjoyed our stay here for 3 nights for a family of 5. The rooms had connected rooms as we requested and everything was smooth. Everyone at the reception and elsewhere were friendly and smiling. Every morning my son and I rode on the hotel’a own bicycle ans that was a truly superb way to start the day. Overall, everything was on walking distance and I definitely recommend this hotel for a Stockholm trip

Hotel was great central location and walking distance from Arlanda Express and metro. Great breakfast included. Clean, quiet and comfortable.

Amazing hotel, very fresh and clean, helpful staff. No issues and would definitely stay there again!

Nice hotel in a great location, central to the sights

Great location, spacious room

Very comfortable single room. Service is excellent!

When we arrived, we were initially given the keys to a room that wasn’t ready, and it was very dirty. Mistakes like this can happen, so we didn’t make a fuss. We were then given our actual room, which was fine — nothing amazing, but acceptable. However, some nights were a nightmare for sleeping. Our room faced a bar/nightclub, and the music (mostly loud techno) went on until around 3 a.m. every night. I genuinely think the room should have at least triple glazing, because it’s ridiculous to be on holiday and not be able to sleep due to the noise. Breakfast was not included, which we knew, but the bigger issue was that the room was never cleaned during our five-day stay. We were told we had to request a cleaning service, so we did — once — but it never happened. After day four, we gave up and just lived in our own mess for the rest of the trip. Overall, it wasn’t the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed in, but it could have been much better. The idea of “ecology” or “sustainability” as a reason not to clean rooms regularly feels like a cop-out — it’s not eco-friendly, it’s just poor service.

Comfortable bed with nice pillows. Okay amenities in the room. Small bathroom with cleanness issues and bad smell. Given age of the building some issues are understandable. However, darkness of breakfast area, improving quality of food, and cleaning of the room should be considered and fixed.

Great stay but room was hot and stuffy. Made it hard to sleep

Very helpful despite us arriving at 3am. Cozy and clean.

Great city hotel. Gym is small. Sauna is good.

This is by far one of the best hotels that I’ve ever stayed at. It was fun and unique, had an amazing and helpful staff and a wonderful breakfast. Absolutely loved the atmosphere and being an LGTBQ+ family, we felt like we were more than comfortable and welcomed.

I chose this hotel because it is so close to the central station. There is one thing which I absolutely hated. There is loud shouty pop music all the time. It is particularly annoying at breakfast. One cannot escape.

Arriving in Stockholm on the Arlanda Express, this hotel is a 10 minute walk from the central station. We stayed for 4 nights in July and found it to be an excellent stay. Hotel staff could not have been more helpful whether they were printing off Power of Attorney documents for my wife to sign or opening the in-room safe that my wife managed to disable with our passports inside it on the night before checkout. (Note that the safe is a bit small and not big enough for a laptop). Hotel staff all speak much better English than my Svenska. Breakfast area has everything you will need but does get very (very) busy between about 8am and 9:30am. Coach load of American tourists during our stay all ate at the same time - they have a bus to catch! We ate out in the evenings as the hotel restaurant choices are a bit limited, but there are a enough alternatives in the immediate vicinity to make up for it. It's a little outside the main tourist area which means it's quiet in the evenings but not much public transport nearby so be prepared for a bit of walking when you have things to do. Waking to the docks to catch a boat to the archipeligo takes about 25 minutes (including the wife stopping to take photos.) We loved the Scandic Grand Central and would stay again even if only because of it's closeness to the train station. But it has more to offer than just that.

Tiny bathrooms, barely any room to stand. Rooms were fine. No ac and no fridge.

The location was good. Shower water pressure was excellent. My room location was very bad. I had to carry luggage through stairs. No way to use elevator

Room was great. European half glassed showers look nice but a mess~ water all over the floor after every shower. Breakfast was awesome. Coffee available during the day was nice. Check-in not the best… prepaid room not available at normal check-in time— had to wait nearly an extra hour, and almost missed dinner reservations.

Overall a very pleasant stay, the junior suite with sofa bed was comfortable and a good size, the staff were very helpful. Breakfast was good but worth avoiding peak times which were a bit crowded. Laundry was available but VERY expensive

Perfect location to explore Stockholm
