ホテル ディプロマット (ストックホルム)

A relaxing and romantic stay. We didn't want to leave the hotel. The beds were super comfy. It's a very nice vibe in the bar and the restaurant as well.

Absolutely fantastic! A beautiful building with a central spiral staircase and a glass and iron elevator which has been declared a historic treasure and can not be replaced or removed. The concierge was absolutely the best, arranging dinner reservations, transportation, sites to visit and glasses of champagne! Centrally located for walking to all venues. The hotel coffee shop had excellent lattes as well as morning sweets/muffins and lunch selections. Well appointed rooms, quiet, and ours included a small private balcony that opened onto an inter courtyard. Very cosmopolitan and eloquent. Will stay here on any return visits to the city.

The hotel is ideally situated on the waterfront in Östermalm, a short walk from the sights of Djurgården, within easy walking distance of the city centre, and a short taxi ride away from the central station. The night we arrived (a Friday), a really loud party was going on, and the person behind the checkin counter could hardly hear us (nor we him), and we were dubious when we were assigned a room on the first floor. When we got to the room, we realised it was at the opposite end of the hotel, but we could still hear the noise of the party, that went on until the early hours of the morning. We couldn't get through to reception to ask them what time the party might end, either. The room itself was spacious, comfortable and clean, although a little dated and worn looking in places, as is typical of grand old hotels like this. The bathroom smelled a little bit of that damp smell, mainly because, I think, the drain from the bathtub drained into a grille in the floor, which then drained into the main drainage system, and so the smell of the drains was able to come through. Easily cured with a towel covering the drain holes, but not brilliant first impression. We spent some time in the relaxation centre, which was a sauna area that was bookable for private use for an hour, and a massage bed where you could get treatments if you booked them at additional cost. The sauna was very much appreciated. We also spent some time at the bar and had a nice couple of drinks.

checkout took really long even though there was no line. 1 person room was tiny

What a lovely hotel in a prime location! We loved our stay and the staff was so friendly!
