Our stay at Hotel Hellsten was disappointing. My husband took me to Stockholm for a birthday trip. The city is great, but this hotel is mediocre. Key points: Hotel – Overall the hotel has a nice comfortable feeling. The sitting room, lobby and breakfast room are well decorated, have interesting design features and are very cosy. The breakfast at the... More

I booked the hotel on Hotwire and got a good rate, compared to other hotels, so I guess that's good. The staff is friendly and very helpful, breakfast is good, the location is not to bad, (approx. 15 mins walk to the Royal Palace and downtown). The hotel is in a quiet street. I do however think that this is... More

I had a single room which was clean and had a nice shower but it was the smallest hotel room I have ever stayed in. It was quiet and faced the back of the hotel. The breakfast buffet was tasty with lots of options (waffles, hard boiled eggs, yogurts, lots of breads with cheese, jams, meats as well as cereals).... More

The Hellsten is an old hotel in central Stockholm. We found a clean room with a fairly small but modern bathroom. The “tunnelbahn” subway is just a short walk away. A trip to “Gamla Stan” old town takes about 10 minutes. You will find traditional Swedish, American, European and Asian restaurants as well as some supermarkets and bars in walking... More

Nice hotel. Cute, cozy rooms. Very clean. Breakfast was just ok, not many options. Metro was located just a block or two away to get to the main attractions. Very safe area as a solo traveler I felt completely comfortable at all times. Friendly staff. Very good value for the money.

Get one of the big rooms with the old corner chimney stoves. Totally expensive but worth it - big bed, interesting furniture, huge windows... My favourite hotel in the world - it's relaxed, well organised, great breakfasts, great internal architecture and design, lots to look at in the little coffee / drinks area, plus a little solarium downstairs. I couldn't... More

When you get in the hotel, the decoration brings a nice atmosphere. The room is very nice, although the bathroom was a little small. Breakfast is ok without showing off. Staff very friendly and happy to help. The one thing that could be improved is the spa. Yes there is a sauna, but very small and very warm, yes there... More

This hotel is situated on a quiet road just one block back from the metro. It is in a very pleasant area with plenty of high quality cafes and restaurants close by. My single room was fine and quiet as I requested. The bread and croissants at breakfast were very high standard though I think they should also provide hot... More
