Scandic Gamla Stan

Perfect lockation

We stayed here for 5 nights. It’s a charming older hotel that met all our needs. We appreciated the roof terrace and loved the breakfast buffet

The staff couldn't have been more accommodating-taxi rides,Great breakfast and the chef was amazingly accommodating for gluten-free options. They also have a boxed breakfast for those whohave to leave prior to breakfast time.

Upgraded to the bigger room in the fourth floor and it was a really cozy spot to recover from jet lag. Upon arriving I noticed the dead bolt did not work in the room and it took a day for it to be repaired but then when I checked it, it still didn’t work. It would have been nice to have that extra security as a woman traveling alone. The breakfast was great and the room was very clean. The water pressure in the shower was incredible. Would recommend

We love staying here. The room is pretty, with a very comfy bed and bedding. The new bathroom is so clean. The location is perfect. We could walk to everything! The staff, especially in the breakfast room, are efficient and welcoming. And the roof terrace is a lovely place to enjoy a rest after a busy day of being a tourist.

Location was ideal. Breakfast was excellent with very attentive dining staff. Very clean hotel. No safe in room. No air conditioning. Overall good value, ample and tasty breakfast, and wonderful location.

Location

The hotel enjoys a fantastic location near the metro station, making it easy to get around. While the rooms are relatively small and on the pricier side, the exceptionally friendly staff and outstanding breakfast more than make up for it.

Gamla train station 2 minutes away, bus to central station 1 minute away. Good breakfast. We are vegans, staff noticed it and took good care of us during breakfast.

This hotel did not disappoint, in that it is historic, quaint, and super well-located in the historic area. It is easy to walk anywhere, close to public transit and easy walk to taxi stands. The staff was very helpful and pleasant. My only comment is that there was no air conditioning; a table fan in the room helped keep things cool enough to sleep, and windows open to let in the cooler night air, but it is a noisy, touristy area so we tended to keep the window closed. The only other thing to be aware of is that cars are not allowed into the inner part of the old city (including where this hotel is) between 11 am - 6 am daily, so Ubers, Taxis etc. must stop a few blocks away and you walk the rest. Not an issue unless you have big checked bags with you vs. carry-on. But overall a wonderful hotel that fits in well in this historic area, with superb staff, and a delicious breakfast buffet with a range of great food choices for almost every taste.

This was my second stay at the Gamla Stan Scandic. My stay last year was perfect so why not try it again. I love this hotel. The staff is friendly, accommodating and very helpful. The rooms are small but totally adequate. There’s a great sitting area on the roof. Breakfast has everything you could want and more and the location is within walking distance of everywhere we wanted to go.

The receptionist was incredibly helpful to us. Our flight had been delayed and she was very instrumental with getting us transportation to the airport and very accommodating when we found out that our flight was delayed.

Great hotel lovely staff

The service by hotel staff was great. The room was clean. The room had a nice view. Breakfast offering was good. The rooftop area was a great place to go up to and have your breakfast or read a book. If you need a snack or coffee throughout the day (or night) the small lobby offerings were great.

The staff were very accommodating :)

Walking distance to the Royal palace. Restaurants all around. It is right next to the sea. There may be some rooms facing the sea but ours was not. The staff was very friendly and gave us helpful tips because it was our first time visiting the city. Minor issues: It has a tiny lobby and there are some steps going up to the hotel.

Everything was wonderful! Great location! Loved the breakfast!

Excellent location. Cleanliness is ok. Hotel provides free drinking hot water. Hotel entrance has stairs. Front desk staff Stefan is very helpful (reserves taxi from hotel to airport, provides breakfast box...). Breakfast is excellent with cheerful chef's good service.

Very warm, no air circulation. Very very tiny. Did not realize my room was so small!

Great location near old town, restaurants and shops. Rooms clean and comfortable. Excellent European breakfast.
