Does not do what it says on the tin
So this hotel has an impressive lobby and looks ultra cool when you enter for the first time, but for people staying in the standard rooms the experience is not so great. The fittings are falling apart, the TV is from 15 years ago, and I accidentally looked at the mattress and wish I hadnt. Although it has a pool it is so small only kids can swim in it, but the breakfast buffet was good and the price not outrageous. If only the whole hotel was fitted out to the same standard as the lobby this would be the place to be.
Dont take a taxi to the airport. The Arlanda express is quicker, cheaper, and ends down town.

Below average for a night in Stockholm.
For the price the hotel was not very impressive and could best be described as in need of renovation I was not too pleased with my room and will not be recommending it to friends. Staayed at the Raddison for one pound cheaper and found it to be a great hotel that I would definately recommend.
