A recent work trip took my to Stockholm for the first time. Selected the Adlon hotel, and wasn't disappointed.

The hotel is conveniently located close to the T-Centralen and central rail station. The express train to the airport is literally across the road, and it's a 10 minute walk to the old town.

The room was small, but very clean, and quiet. The breakfast was fabulous - a good selection of meats, cheeses and cereals.

Would happily stay here again.

The Adlon is a nice, basic hotel with a great location right by the central station and Arlanda Express airport train. The Old Town and main shopping streets are within easy walking distance.

I arrived early but was able to check in right away. The desk staff wasn't especially friendly, with the exception of the night clerk, who went out of his way to smile and be helpful. The desk wasn't especially well-staffed, which ordinarily wouldn't be much of a problem except that the hotel insisted the room key be left at the desk when out and about and no one was ever there to make sure it was safely put away. I also had to wait to check out because no one was there, but this was only a short wait.

I had a single room, which was small but clean and comfortable. There was a bit of street noise as my room overlooked busy Vasagatan, but I didn't need the window open so it wasn't especially bothersome. Some of the common areas look a bit worn, but nothing was especially off-putting.

Breakfast was nothing out of the ordinary: muesli and cereal, boiled eggs, meats, cheeses, breads, etc. It wasn't served for an especially long time, so sleeping in isn't an option. It also didn't start early enough on the weekend for me to have anything before having to catch the airport train.

All in all, the location and price made the Adlon a good value.

This hotel was way better than I was expecting for under 100 euros/night in Stockholm! (Although I think that if you go in high season you won't be able to find such a great rate). I booked it directly through the Stockholm tourism website and was pleasantly surprised by how great the location was and how chic the room was. Also very friendly and helpful staff. Stockholm is a great city to visit so go for it!

I have stayed at this hotel dozens of times as it is across the street from where I occasionally work,

ROOMS:
Single rooms are VERY small, nevertheles they serve the purpose of a place to stay.
Sometimes I pick one of the following rooms 204,304,404 as they are almost like little suites and not that much expensive compared to the single rooms.

STAFF:
Simply wonderful

INTERNET:
Super good connection, either free 256 or 80 SEK for the 1 Mgb
Kinda annoying that there is no WIFI but only cable, and super short cables.

PARIKING
In general Stockholm is made for cars. So at Adlon as everywhere else the best way to park is in their underground parking. A little expensive though, 260 SEK per day.
BE AWARE of "sweeping nights" if you are parked illegal on a sweep nigh, where the streets are swept, your car will be towed.
Costs USD 500 plus you have to travel outside Stckhlm to the yard where they dump your car.
Happend to me :(

TRANSPORT
If you fly into Arlanda, take "Arlanda Express" to Stockholm. Stop 1 block away from Adlon, and costs the half of cab. Further it takes 20 minutes by train (high speed 200 km/h) and 45 minutes by Taxi.

If you like good music, visit Jazzclub Fasching across the street.
