Stora Essingen Vacations from $1,250

Very basic accommodation but also very clean, and a bus stop near by.

Great location and nice apartment

I booked the double loft room which was cosy but functional. There was not much space to move around but had a comfy bed and nice shower. Sadly there was no desk in the room as it was quite small and there were no real facilities to work from when downstairs (there is a restaurant on the ground floor). The staff did allow me to work from a high table near the entryway but it really was not suitable. There are other establishments nearby that you can work from (cafe / restaurants) and it was nice area to explore. The staff were lovely, very courteous and accommodating. The food was nice and the atmosphere in the restaurant was vibrant and interesting as a solo traveller. I think if you are travelling for work you would need to book a much bigger room but as a tourist it is a lovely quaint hotel in a great part of Stockholm.

We stayed in the Casandra apartment across the street from the main hotel and absolutely loved it. Being there for a week, we so enjoyed having space to spread out. Everything was clean and comfortable. The breakfast buffet provides a nice mix of items. The staff at the desk and breakfast are friendly and helpful. The proximity to all Gamla Stan has to offer cannot be beat.
