Best Hotels near Kål- och humleträdgård, Stockholm

Overall, not too many complaints about the hostel. It was incredibly clean, offered a free towel for the shower, and had easy to use lockers. Social activities could be better compared to other hostels I’ve stayed at. Easy walk to both the central station and the city. Overall, I’d definitely stay again.

BEDBUGS! To start with, we are aware this is not a 5 stars hotel and our expectations were not high. The breakfast was not the best but decent, the local staff a little unkind and rough, the shower curtain smelled bad. However, the real problem were bedbugs and the attitude of the staff after it was reported. We noticed insects in the room (we didn’t know at the time what it was) and I ended up being severely bitten. I reported this to the hotel by e-mail after I learnt what it is and after being examined by the doctor. I wanted to make sure they do something about that but they immediately replied there’s no way there are bedbugs in the hotel. Searching for bedbugs should take at least 1 hour (the insects hide) so there is no chance somebody even went to the room to check. I need to use ointment with antibiotics and do disinsection of my apartment in case I transferred bugs from that hotel. It is a costly and unpleasant process and the hotel’s attitude is unacceptable. I went through other comments on booking and we are not the first ones to report that. The personnel’s response is the same, though.

Great place to stay centrally in Stockholm. We Walker everywhere and did not take public transportation at all. Fantastic views from the room. We chose a superior room with private bathroom and everything lived up to our expectations. You just have to remember that this is a budget hotel and hostel. Very cheap for a central location in Stockholm. We visited in January, but the room was nice and warm. Bathroom was not heated, but they had placed an electric heater that we turned on while using the bathroom and that was just fine for us. The staff was lovely and allowed us to check in several hours early. We had only asked if we could leave our bag, but they had the room available. Probably possible due to low occupancy in January. I loved the unique stay and would definitely recommended. Would like to visit again in the spring or summertime.

The location of the hotel is very good. It’s convenient to go everywhere. There is a 711 supermarket next to it. The hotel rooms are also good. The European rooms are not too big. The breakfast is average. The price is not high after all.

We had a very pleasant stay during our 5-day trip in the backpackers city hostel. The personnel was very involved and friendly. Also, the rooms and shower/ toilets were very clean. The location is perfect and close to central station. Lastly, the extra facilities such as the free pasta and sauna were fantastic. Definitely worth a recommendation. Best Regards, Coco

The hotel is clean and cute. Its location is great, especially if one intends to visit Gamla Stan. It has shared toilets and showers which of course makes prices lower. You get slippers that can be used in the hotel room or for visit the showers/toilets. The shower-room smells a bit of sewer, and that is probably why the windows are open but now in September that makes the shower-room very cold. I tried to close the windows but they are stuck. The same problems with the windows in my hotel room, one is stuck. The window seems too big for the frame. The front desk closes at 21.00/9 pm and no one is present. If you loose the key to your room you are in major problem. On the envelope for the keys there is a warning text that if you loose your key you have to wait til staff arrives in the morning or you will be heavily charged if you want to be locked in right away. But that I had to read on the key envolpe, because the receptionist did not tell me that. The key envelope was so cluttered that the wifi-password was not easy to spot. The tv has only three Swedish channels, nothing else, not even BBC World. Free wifi with password on key envelope - which I had to go and ask where iti was at the front desk, because receptionist did not tell me that, either. But no phones in the room so you have to walk to the front desk everytime you want to ask something. And the receptionist did not give me such vital information so I had to go to the front desk at least three times. The luggage storage is just in the hallway in a corridor by the front desk. At the front desk you can buy coffee, tea, soft drinks, smaller snack bags and fruit. I have not seen sandwiches. I have not tried the ironing service. Staff seem friendly, but I have a sneaky feeling that when I turn my back negativity might surface. I am travelling alone in work.

It is a 5-minute walk from Stockholm Odenplan Station, and a 2-minute walk from the hotel door is a subway station, so it is easy to move around. It was a bit wrong that there was no window in the room, but there was no smell and the room was quite neatly maintained. Breakfast is good and tastes good. Considering the price of Northern Europe, it is a place where you can stay at a good value for money.

Great, lively bar and restaurant! Great location. Rooms were good. Check-in and check out was fairly quick. Quite a few small issues though that they could easily improve upon. Curtain doesn't close all the way so there is some light in the room from the buildings next door that keep their lights on at night. Internet and phones weren't working the night I arrived. They could have told me that upon arrival.. There was some urban construction at 4am for some strange reason. I was told I had made two bookings but I only paid for one. Not sure what happened with the second one that they said I made. Wish they would have followed up with me so I didn't have to worry about it.. They say there is a swimming pool on trip.com but then I found out you can't actually swim in it. They should be more transparent about the size and purpose. I'd still consider it again though.

First impression - when we got into the apartment we booked we were shocked to see it was much, much smaller than presented in the pictures - see attached presentation pics vs reality. We immediately went to the reception to show them the obvious difference, when one of the front desk officers, named Joel was quite deffensive and strongly rejected my entitled claim to get the proper apartment as per my booking. He said the pics in the presentation were made with wide angles, therefore we need to accept this is the correct room, no mistake was dine. I insisted upon the obvious but I had no one to talk to in order to fix my problem. Later on I made the same complaint to Trip.com - they tried to reason with Joel, but got the same nagative attitude. Joel saga doesn't end here, unfortunatelly... The whole administration of the building might be a bit control freak. Why? Because Guests can not have full control of their room. You can not adjust the air conditioning yourself - you have to call the reception to adjust the room temperature for you. You can not open any window - you have to ask the reception for the window handle, which guess what? It's only one window handle for all of the rooms in the building and each room gets the handle for 1 hour max or at least so it should be if Joel doesn't have other opinion about it. One evening, upon request, Joel gave me the handle and told me to open the windows quickly and give it back to him fast as others needs it now too. I was shocked of course. ***??? Where is my hour? How am I supposed to close the windows then after? Oh...I have to get downstairs to the reception and get it back so that I vould close my windows. BUT wait!! Joel remembered to fully read the post it his colleague gave him before coming upstairs to my room and saw my room number was last on the list and therefore I can keep the handle for a longer period time. He was doing me a big favor. That was his attitude like. Very unprofessional, cold and really wrong attitude for someone working in hospitality. I am afraid I had to react this time and asked him what is his problem really, as it looks like it has a particular problem with me and therefore to any of my requests to get the proper service and comfort I payed for. Joel's Lady colleague was much nicer and helpful. He should follow her example if he wants to stay in hospitality. I left with a bitter taste and very dissapointed with the whole experience at Biz Apartment Bromma due to this important details of my accomodation there. The Biz Apartment concept is pretty nice though overall, is quite new, the location is indeed a bit far from the city, but within easy reach by metro, which has the station right in front of the building. You need to change at Alvik for the green line towards city center. It is also easy to reach from Arlanda Airport by train up to Solna station and than by metro. Downstairs there is a huge supermarket where you can get anything you need for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The apartment is equiped with everything essential to prepare some meals ( microwave, electric stove, dishwasher, toaster, etc.) The bed was very comfortable. A bit too cold in the room. If I were to get the more spatious apartment as per my booking pics, my own window handle and proper room temperature I would book this place again, no doubt.

Clean, compact & comfortable. Walkable distance from central train station. Down comforters, scenic view from our large window, large screen tv, clean bathroom with shower, free Wi-fi, self check-in (we didn’t have a reservation so we had to check-in with a staff person). We had a “Compact Double” Room for 1,689,00 SEK (about $156 USD) and it was worth it!
