Grand Hôtel Stockholm

;
2, 43, 55, 62, 65, 76 Karl XII's torg,
Strömka-
jen, Kungsträdgården, T-Centralen)
This is where the literati, glitterati and nobility call it a night. A waterfront landmark, with
several exclusive restaurants and a see-and-be-seen piano bar, it remains Stockholm's most
sumptuous lodgings. Room styles span royal Gustavian to contemporary chic.
Room 701 (the Flag Suite) occupies a turret with a 360-degree view and a jacuzzi open
to the sky; room 702 is the astounding Nobel Room, where the literature prizewinner
slumbers overnight; and the Bernadotte suite is fit for royalty. All rooms include access to
the Nordic Spa and Fitness centre, plus all the little luxuries that accompany five-star ac-
commodation.
Berns Hotel
HOTEL
1790; ; Kungsträdgården, 7 Kungsträdgården)
The rooms at Berns come equipped with entertainment systems and styles ranging from
19th-century classical to contemporary sleek. Some are more impressive than others (the
balcony rooms get our vote); room 431 was once a dressing room used by Marlene Diet-
rich and Ella Fitzgerald. The cheapest rooms don't include breakfast, but it can be added
for Skr195.
