Stockholm Slussen Hilton (Stockholm, Sweden)- Hotel Reviews

We had always wanted to stay at this hotel because of its excellent location looking over the lake towards Stockholm's old town (Gamla stan). We finally got the opportunity during New Year 2006, when a special deal meant that we could stay in one of the best rooms in the hotel without breaking the bank.

We got a king double "executive" room for SEK 1,395 per night (that is about GBP 105, or EUR 150). More than we would normally spend, but it was well worth it. Our room was on the top floor, and we had fantastic views over the lake and Gamla stan (see pics). What is more, we had access to the exclusive club lounge on the same floor. This was a bit like an airport club lounge, but with better views. Very stylishly furnished with comfy chairs and an open fire. Coffee, tea, soft drinks, and light snacks were available all day, and in the afternoon/evening there was beer, wine and spirits too. And snacks here does not mean just a bowl of peanuts! This was caviar and smoked salmon canapes, fresh bread, cheese and cold meats, as well as excellent sweets and pastries. And all included in the price. It was really nice to be able to come back in out of the cold (it was minus 8 degrees C) at the end of the day and relax in the warm with a coffee, cake and scotch, and not have to worry about Swedish prices.

This is modern and stylish hotel, with efficient service. The room was very comfortable, although maybe a little small by international standards. Breakfast was very good, although quite busy. If you are in an executive room, you can have breakfast in the club lounge, which is much more relaxed.

The hotel is very well located, close to the Slussen bus and metro interchange, which makes it very convenient for getting almost anywhere in Stockholm. It is walking distance to Gamla stan, and close to the excellent bars and restaurants on Södermalm.

We had a great time here, and although it cost a bit extra, we felt that we got good value for money. It was very nice to start the new year with a bit of affordable luxury.

Fantastic location with views over the lake and the old town.
Spoil yourself rotten if you can get a good deal on an executive room.
Good transport connections.
