Story Hotel

in

Story calls itself Stockholm’s hippest hotel, with stylish bars, good restaurants and a trendy bou- tique all under one roof on Riddargatan. Koncept Stockholm, which designed Story, and chief archi- tect Daniel Wengelin, who previously designed Acne, and Tiger’s boutiques. There is a mix of vin- tage and modern furniture, and the look gets its inspiration from faded old New York diners and chic Paris hotels.

Hotell Skeppsholmen

in

Stockholm’s newest hotel, on the beautiful island of Skeppsholmen. Centrally located, with views of Södermalm and Gamla Stan. The hotel is housed in a building dating back to 1699, which was originally the residence of King Charles XII’s soldiers. The décor by Claesson Koivisto Rune has been carefully styled down to the minutest detail. Here, art, design, music and food come together in perfect partnership. But perhaps the best thing of all is the view towards the Stockholm Sound.

Lydmar

in

An old hotel in a superb new location, the Lydmar has moved from its former premises near Humlegården to a site next to the famous Grand Hotel. But the Lydmar might be a little cooler than its distinguished neighbour. The white art nouveau build- ing contains 46 rooms, all furnished differently. Pelle Lydmar, one of the partners, has created an exclusive hotel comprising 85-m2 suites and double rooms featuring elegant furnishings from across Eu- rope. Popular bar with occasional live music. Cosy restaurant with à la carte and lunch menus.

Hotel Hellsten

in

A comfortable hotel in Vasastan that is very much like a private home. Designer furniture and antiques sit side by side, and no two rooms are alike. Try the spacious red room with its cosy décor. The hotel building dates back to 1889, but boasts all mod cons.

Grand Hotel

in

With its view across the water to the Royal Palace, the classic of classics among Stockholm hotels. The venerable building first opened its doors on June 14, 1874. This is where the Nobel laureates stay when they come to receive their awards in De- cember each year, although celebs and rock stars such as Paris Hilton and Bruce Springsteen are not averse to checking in for a luxury stay as well. The rooms are furnished in traditional style.

Hotel Esplanade

in

Right at the beginning of Strandvägen, the most elegant address in town, stands a beautiful art nouveau hotel. The view of Nybroviken, the archipelago ferries and the waters of the harbour is exquisite. The rooms are spacious and the ceilings pleasingly high. The Esplanade’s air of faded luxury, with its charming old-fashioned furniture, has made it Wall- paper founder Tyler Brûlé’s favourite hotel.
