Very accessible on foot or public transport for places we wanted to go

very nice cosy and own atmosphere

Very convenient location to T and buses

Themed rooms, very comfortable bed. Wasn’t the best location of room as opposite the kitchen. Staff were very friendly, loved the bar area and food was good value and tasty. Good location, very safe and walkable to the main square.

Nice staff. Quaint room. Great location.

Great location, great service and extremelly accomodating!

A bit surprised on how small room and bed was. Very old school - not cozy

I had the hardest time booking our hotel in Stockholm despite it being one of our first stops. The reason was because I had to make sure that the hotel take late check in. Hotel Hellsten does and it was actually a good decision. Breakfast was included and it was delish. They even prepared a to go breakfast box for us since we had to leave early. The room and bathroom was very satisfactory and service was great. Public transport was within walking distance from the hotel and there are resto close by.

Friendly staff, excellent room - spacious and comfortable, great breakfast. Recommended.

- Block away from metro, but still walkable to Gamla Stan - Very small (solo) room. Essentially a bed and small desk plus the small bathroom - Likely not worth the rate per night

A good mid-level choice if you want a compromise between the convenience of downtown and the services of a neighborhood. There are tons of non-touristy restaurants and bars at all levels within easy walking distance and a supermarket and pharmacy a block away. The major sites of Stockholm are on the waterfront, not near the hotel, but there's a subway station a block and a half away that will get you downtown in minutes. The hotel is very well maintained and it's clear that the owners are trying to provide the best experience. For example, there are many breakfast options, including plant-based and lactose-free milks, several kinds of bread, and even oatmeal. There's free live jazz once a week in the bar. (It's not great, but I appreciate the effort.) The decor veers toward "shabby chic" - don't expect a Marriott-type look with cookie-cutter rooms and corporate decor. I had a top-floor room with a sloped ceiling, exposed wooden beams, and a casement window that opened, not mechanical ventilation. It was a perfect choice for me, but might not be to everyone's taste.

A block and a half from Rådmansgatan T. Rooms in great condition

Really lovely spacious room. Good size shower room. Clean and tidy. Nice and bright. Bit warm but they’d provided a fan and the windows open. Comfy bed - firm.

The shower was not sealed properly so water leaked out onto the bathroom floor. Other than that, I enjoyed my stay, my third time at the Hellsten while visiting Stockholm.

The hot breakfasts were very good with lots of selection. The front desk staff were accommodating and friendly. I didn't like how dark the entryway was - almost foreboding! Need a table of some sort around the sink in the bathroom for toiletries. No air conditioning. We were fortunate that the weather was cooler when we stayed so kept the window open all night and the room cooled off.

We stayed for five nights and had an excellent experience. Highly recommend. Very convenient.

Nice boutique hotel

Good location, just a short walk into the city centre. Quiet, relaxed atmosphere. I appreciated the free tea and coffee. My room was fine, although a little warm, with openable window. Great breakfast with lots of choice. All the staff seemed friendly.

Good value, had all the essentials. Good breakfast. Bed was ok, not the most comfortable, very soft. Coffee and tea available in the lobby. Very clean.

The flag outside the hotel is great for locating it
