Owned by a former member of ABBA, Hotel Rival is a colorful and comfortable hotel located just a few minutes’ walk from tons of Stockholm’s hot spots. Enjoy breakfast at their lavish breakfast buffet and snuggle up in their Egyptian cotton sheets.
Nobis Hotel
Sometimes hotels with a modern twist can feel stark and cold, but that’s not the case with Nobis Hotel. Despite its minimalism and clean lines, Nobis Hotel still feels comfortable and cozy. Not only that but the amenities, such as the fitness center and sauna, are a great perk.
Elite Eden Park Hotel
Elite Eden Park Hotel overlooks Humlegården Park and is a short walk from plenty of Stockholm’s sites. The beautiful modern rooms feature free Wifi and some even have balconies. Pop downstairs to the English-style pub or their Asian-inspired restaurant for a bit to eat and a drink.

Hotel Skeppsholmen
Located in central Stockholm, Hotel Skeppsholmen is divided between two 17th-century buildings. Each of its 77 rooms are decorated in what you’d come to expect from boutique hotels–bold patterns and bright pops of color. Bathrooms feature rainfall showerheads and each room is outfitted with a minibar, robes, and free Wifi.
Hotel Hellsten
Hotel Hellsten’s building dates back to the 1800s, but don’t worry, because there have been a lot of updates! Its rooms are individually decorated and feature hardwood floors throughout and heated floors in the bathroom for those cold winter nights.
