Best Western Hotel Capital, Stockholm

For that price a quite good hotel with good breakfast. Location is okay: 500m walk to the tram station, then it takes about 20 min into the city center. Negative is the fitness room - very small and most machines not working.

ok for the price road outside my window, otherwise perfect

Good clean Budget hotel Difficult to get to and from the Airport unless one takes a taxi. However, it is conveniently located near the international conference centre (Stockholmassan. Bus no: 152 will take you there. The bus stop is right in front of the hotel on the main road. I thought the local knowledge of staff working at the reception was not up to the standard. Restaurant severe Beef and Fish based dishes with no other choice of food like chicken or vegetarian dishes on the menu.

Room vas clean Nice and frindly personel Internet was down the 1. night. We wil like to come back.

The location of the Best Western Hotel lets it down as a 'tourist' hotel as it is on an industrial estate with seemingly nothing in the immediate location apart from warehouses. So if you've had a long day, once you've returned a litle bit weary your pretty much stuck there. It is though only 5 minutes walk from the tram stop where you can get into the centre of Stockholm in about fifteen minutes (changing once at the Globen.) For a short weekend break like I had with my son (or on Business) I have no problems with this hotel and it is ideal for the Globen Arena if, like us, an event being held there is the reason for your visit to Stockholm. For a longer stay though I felt the room was a bit on the small side - One of those where if there are two of you, one has to watch tv lying down on the bed. The toilet/wash basin/shower room was particularly cramped. The bed mattress was very soft - not sure if that is a peculiarity of this hotel or Sweden in general but if you have a bad back you probably wouldn't appreciate it in the morning. Fortunately I don't and had a great night's sleep! The hotel is clean and there's lots of seating area in the lobby/bar area to relax (or play a game of darts.) There are two computers in the lobby free to surf the net they were seemingly in constant use so yuo felt obliged not to hog them as invariably someone would be standing waiting behind you after just a few minutes. The hotel staff were friendly and polite at all times. They seemed to be really child friendly but I feel that this may be that this hotel was more geared up to the businessman so kids were 'a bit of a novelty.' Either way my boy really enjoyed his stay and looked forward to chatting to one of the staff whenever we returned there as he always talked to him and made him laugh.
