Story Hotel Riddargatan

Very good

Liked: Location and the breakfast
Disliked: There was no aircon, hence the room was hot in August.

Excellent location; small rooms; best...

Liked: Great location, near Tunnelbann, ferries, tram, etc. Easy access to popular destinations in Stockholm. Very good breakfast included in room rate.
Disliked: No AC or AC didn’t work. I understand that many European hotels do not have AC, but our room had a vent and the dining room had air vents, so either it was just for ventilation or it didn’t work. Due to the lack of AC our room averaged about 80+ degrees F even with the fan provided and windows wide open. Our windows overlooked a courtyard that contained a bar, so bar noise, music, talking, etc. was frequently an issue. They did shut the music off at 11 and had most of the bar folk kicked out by midnight. Also, room was very small; again, quite familiar with European hotel rooms, but this was a queen size bed stuffed in a double room, with about 2 feet around each side of the bed, no place to open luggage except on the bed. Between the heat, noise, and general stuffiness of the room, our sleep was not great.

Superb

Liked: The location is great! Metro is just around the corner and the city center is within walking distance. The district seems to be rich, with lots of luxary shops around, so it was super safe at night.The room was on a smaller side, but the bed was fantastic, what you need after a busy touristic day. We got the room with a design right from photos that was quite unique. Breakfasts are diverse enough, providing both warm and cold dishes, and some Swedish specialities!The receptionists were helpful and pleasant. They gave us vouchers for drinks at the hotel bar, and we recommend to use them as cocktails there are yummy!
Disliked: There could be more hangers in the room, both for clothes and in bathroom. The shower was not fully closed with a glass, so some flooding is possible during usage. The TV was going a bit crazy sometimes: it was turning on and off by itself. We didn't figure it out, just unplugged it.

okay

Liked: -very clean, nice bathrooms, good room size, perfect location.
Disliked: -the mattresses were not comfy- super soft and worn. We both had backache in the mornings. Pillows though were okay-unfortunately very noisy outside by night-no space for clothing (no cupboards etc), so we lived out of the suitcase

Superb
