Hotels near Drottningholm Palace in Stockholm

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.

We were made to feel VIP from check-in to check-out. The personnel always saw to it that we had what we needed greeting us everywhere (in chorus at breakfast) and giving personal service. They seem to be very proud to be working at Hesselby Slott. We stayed in the South Wing of the castle overlooking the castle grounds. The room was warmly furnished and with a high bed making one feel like sleeping in the royal chambers. We were provided bathrobes and slippers and abundant quantity of personal sized luxury toiletries. Free coffee and tea in both the Castle and in the Orangerie with very nice ambiance. You can choose to sit in the library or other rooms in the castle. Live candles in all public areas. Music played everywhere in the public rooms and on the grounds, even in the parking area. This big establishment felt warmer and more cosy than a cute little cottage. There is a special room in the castle where you can see all the winners of the Polar Music Prize since 1992. In another building, the ”Orangerie” you find the reception, conference rooms , billiards, bar, a music lounge with two karaoke rooms as well as the restaurant where we had breakfast. A lot of thought was placed in furnishing the whole Orangerie and it was also very warm and cosy with live candles. The breakfast was a lot with both warm and cold luxury food. It was also very safely arranged during the Covid times. Food taking areas were spread out and serving spoons were not provided, instead you use a new one everytime. Even if in the early morning breakfast we were only a few, we felt that the hotel did not lower their usual standard and assortment. The chef was very amiable. Parking is free although it is a walk of 200-300m as you need to go over the castle grounds and gardens. We were allowed to drive in to the castle near our room to load and unload. We usually work Friday afternoons in hotels (after check-in) . Wifi was very good. We ended our stay with a walk in the large castle grounds giving us the needed exercise after a week of work from home. This was an excellent stay and we did not need to pay much. We would absolutely like to come back!

The hotel was booked because it was close to a friend's house. After checking in, I found that this hotel was very popular. The breakfast was good. It was very convenient to take the Green Line subway into the city.

Upon entry it was clear we had made the right decision. Welcoming staff (to be fair everyone we encountered on our trip was too), room was big enough and bathroom was incredible. Under floor heating when it's -14 outside is always a nice touch. Our very cheap rate included breakfast, fika (snack) and dinner every night. The food could sometimes have been a little hotter, and there is normally only one choice in the evening, but this was fine for us as it was always delicious. A good way to save money in quite an expensive city. Our room wasn't serviced during our stay but the company (nordic choice) had been hacked so their computer system was down, so can't blame them. They had cleaned well prior to our arrival so this didn't impact us much either. There was easy transport links less than 5 minute walk away. Would definitely be back

As a budget hotel in the southern Stockholm suburbs, I wasn't expecting much for my one night on business. It's not glamorous, it's not chic, and it's not convenient for the commuter train or Tunnel-Bahn (Metro system) to central Stockholm (the bus stops close by, or it's a 25 minute walk to the train) But it was clean. It was warm. It had good ventilation. It had a comfortable bed, a TV, a large private bathroom with plenty of hot water, it had a very good inclusive free breakfast, it had convenient free parking outside, and it was walking distance to probably the biggest retail park in Sweden. The reception staff were welcoming. The entire hotel was non-smoking which was perfect for me. The building itself is a little tired looking temporary modular construction, meaning it doesn't look too inviting from the outside, and inside is a very long corridor, again looking a little tired. Being modular also means the acoustic separation between rooms is not perfect, so don't expect solid walls and a solid floor, any maybe expect sounds from neighbouring rooms. But in terms of value for money, if you need somewhere to sleep and eat which is within a budget cost, this place is ideal.

Had the good fortune of spending the weekend in one of the hotel’s top floor suites (adjacent to the conference facility on the 11th floor). Full disclosure - I had pretty low expectations coming in due to an unfortunate previous stay at this hotel, but that changed completely the moment I stepped inside the suite. It was spacious, comfortable and luxurious with enormous floor-to-ceiling windows and a HUGE terrace facing the city and Globen. The HVAC system was the best I've experienced in a Swedish hotel (a far cry from the regular Nordic systems that keep you freezing in the winter and sweating in the summer), the water pressure amazing and the finishes stylish. That said, if I were to nitpick, it wasn’t perfect - outlets were almost non-existent, a couple of spotlights were out-of-order, there was no shower gel in the shower, the TV was too small for a room of this size and there was no privacy shade for the giant window between the master bath and the bedroom. The housekeeping staff had generally done a very thorough job, with the exception of a part of the terrace that contained a half-eaten orange from a previous guest. These minor issues did, however, not detract from the overall experience and this suite easily ranked amongst the best Swedish hotel suites I’ve stayed in. The hotel has an excellent location, friendly staff and reasonable pricing, easily earning them a full five stars for this stay. I can’t wait to come back to the same suite :)

The room was very clean, small and comfortable, and there was a nice restaurant downstairs. The staff was very friendly. I arrived very late at 1am, and the front desk left me the key and access code.

Total amazing surprise at Bw Bromma Hotel! Much better than expected, worth twice the price. Parking (tho difficult App EV charging), nice reception service w Free printing even and welcome fruit, one of Best breakfasts ever, good room w Huge TV, many small details! 10/10 except location far from center, but was expected. Thanks to hotel :)

Nordic rooms are not big!

Great accommodation for price, especially in Europe. The staff were amazing and friendly. The breakfast buffet was outstanding and one of the best we have seen in 23 countries and 50 States. Our only small complaint was that there are no mini fridge or microwave in rooms and the location is not close to public transportation but Uber was very convenient.
