A couple of additional questions - how far is the hotel from the Grand Hotel (which is my other alternative) and what's the weather likely to be like in early June?
Thanks
Rooms are rather small
. Last year I was upgraded to a towerroom I am Gold). My room was also (relative) small, but had a very nice view of the old town. Service in the Towers is superb :-: . There were some Americans "living"" here, working for US companies. That''s why the lounge is also open in the weekend. They serve a several snacks during the day and have drinks. There is a very friendly guestlady from Morocco and she makes you feel at home in the Towers!
It is 10 minutes walking from the Central station. The location is also very close to the ferries, 5 minutes walking.
Service is very friendly in this hotel. They have long hours for breakfast in the weekend in the restaurant which I liked.
The Grand Hotel has a superb central location in the old town, and I have heard it is great to stay there. However, the rates seem to be much higher.
Have a great stay in Stockholm!
