Nobis is a nice hotel but expectation management is key to a nice stay - they do not have to upgrade plats at all, so if you get a big room, be very happy.
sheraton doesn’t really have small rooms and there’s a lounge. The comparison is not really fair
in summary - I like them both, but the Sheraton is usually cheaper.

The Sheraton is very convenient if you are planning any side trips, as it is right by the train station. I’m not a big fan of the location of the Nobis (kind of noisy/touristy). That said, I’ve only actually stayed at the Sheraton.

The Design Hotel properties are lovely and I got upgraded multiple times, but of course there's no guarantee.

I recently stayed at the Miss Clara by Nobis and I really enjoyed it. The people on the reception desk were exceptionally friendly, down to earth and helpful. The best experience in a long while. I'm only Gold Elite so didn't expect anything special, but in the room there was a complimentary box of Swedish sweet and a nice handwritten note.
Stayed in a Superior Room with double bed and I found it to be very spacious. Great shower cubicle. Small sink. Not enough hooks for the towels. The room itself was weird. The highest ceilings ever, and the windows and radiators give off a repurposed UK grammar school vibe from the 1970s. Storage space options were also a bit odd, which meant a combination of using the hangars and living out of the suitcase.
Unfortunately I didn't get to use any of the facilities such as the Terrace or the gym/sauna.
