The hotel was clean and the staff friendly. The price did not include breakfast as other hotels in Sweden and Finland have. The room is comfortable and the location is excellent: right on Medborgarpladtsen, and close to the Slusen metro stop in Södermalm.

A week before arrival my partner and I were thinking of renting a car so I wrote to the hotel to know if there was parking available or not. Never got an answer so I didn’t rent a car. There is no parking available btw.
During check-in, we figured out we had booked a room without windows on floor -2. We asked for an upgrade and they got us a room on first floor with window for an extra charge of 90€ for 3 nights.
We go into the room, which looked great at first. I try to open the window, the handle was broken so the upgrade was all for nothing because we couldn’t open the window.
We opened the safe to drop our stuff and we saw it was covered in mold, disgusting.
The bathroom smelled like pee all the time and the wc sitter was broken.
AC didn’t work, they had left a fan in our room.
Bed was ok, i don’t understand having a double mattress but separate quilt. Something in the bed made me have a reaction, my legs were itchy every night when I laid down which made sleeping and resting impossible for me
Upon check-in they told us cleaning would be available only once during our stay and we had to choose a day. We chose the day and the cleaning never happened during our stay.
There’s no tea or coffee in the room, or a mini fridge.

The hotel is super convenient right next to a metro station so getting around anywhere in the city is easy. We also found it easy to walk up the road and into the old town. There were plenty of good restaurants nearby.
We didn’t find the room noisy, with the window closed it did block out a lot of street noise. The curtains were great super blackout and the bed really comfortable. The AC in the room though wasn’t very good. I think they’ve been set so you can’t adjust it so it didn’t come out very much and also wasn’t very cool. We ended up just opening the windows.
The bathroom was clean, fairly basic but worked fine.
Breakfast was really good and had a tasty selection of food and drinks. I would recommend the hotel we slept well, enjoyed the breakfast and found the location handy.

I was delay in an airport. Couldn't reach for confirmation of late arrival. The room was paid for. Got there a day late. Since I did not called to mention the late arrival. They had cancelled my reservation and rented my room to someone else.

They at first didn't want to credit me and wanted to keep my money. Thanks to Expedia's personnel who's telephone help me to get a refund.

But still I needed (in rush) a room. They rented me 2 nights at near the price of my previous rental. I fell like I was robbed. Then I had to relocate for the rest of my stay.

What a robbery. When a room is paid for, I should be able to use it or not !!!

Very clean and quiet. Extremely comfortable beds! Plenty of room for our group of 3. Missing a few amenities like clock and coffee pot in the room. Needed a couple items like a tampon and bandaid, but was told I’d have to go to the store down the street. I later found those items for sale right at the front desk… and no complimentary coffee or water. That being said one of the front desk workers was very helpful with coffee shop and dinner location suggestions.
This hotel is close to the metra and only a 10-15 minute walk to Gamla Stan.

An ideal base for exploring Stockholm. Friendly & helpful staff. Powerful shower and very comfortable beds. We were in the basement so without a window and slept brilliantly. There are so many restaurants, shops and bars nearby and Gamla Stan is only 20-25 minutes walk away. Great for public transport too. No kettle or fridge in the room but I believe that's standard in mainland Europe. There is a bar/restaurant attached too. Would return.

Ruined The Trip - Awful!

Awful! Travelled with our 1 year old baby and was put directly above the hotels night club - completely ruined the trip! Complained to hotels.com whilst we were there, who made no effort to resolve the issue. Floors were not clean in the room, tiny bathroom (only a shelf on top of the toilet!), breakfast was ok but that’s the only positive thing I have to say. We were moved from the 1st floor to the 4th floor on the second night which was not much better in terms of noise. Hotel staff on reception even suggested we move our baby’s cot ourselves, along with our baby and luggage - zero hospitality.

There’s no way that this is 4* hotel. Avoid!

The hotel has very questionable policies of selling small and unfit rooms to families. We were forced to buy an upgrade to a suite when we discovered that the room we had booked for 4 people only had three beds.
The hotel is overall old and very much in need of a renovation. The rooms are small, (the so called suite is a suitable room for 4 people, but definitely not large) the service is more a 3 star level rather than 4. The staff is nice but bound to unpleasant policies from management.
Only good point was breakfast and location.

The best thing about this hotel is the location - situated in Södermalm just above a metro station, short walk to the old town etc

Plenty of food and grocery options nearby

Rooms very clean and more than adequate size wise

The breakfast was fantastic… so many options even gluten free and vegan. Egg bacon meatballs pastries bread cereal granola plus much more

The only criticism we had was the street below can be quite noisy especially on a Friday night with drunk revellers making constant noise until the early hours - not ideal if your a light sleeper

Scandic Malmen is well-situated on the island of Södermalm; it is about a 10-minute walk from Gamla Stan and next door to a metro station (Medborgarplatsen). My room was comfortable and spacious. However, the noise from the street below was sometimes an issue at night. Also, in order to have your room cleaned, you must book a day in advance. The best part about this hotel though is the breakfast buffet. Both the presentation and selection are amazing!! There are even vegan, lactose-free and gluten-free options for anyone with special dietary restrictions. None of the hotels I've stayed at in the UK or North America offered a complimentary breakfast that rivals the one provided by Scandic. Mycket uppskattat, tack!!

It's more of a 3 star hotel... Location is great next to subway and tons of restaurants & bars... Daily included breakfast was wonderful with lots of options... My booked room was small as expected since I didn't go for higher priced options... Now, room service needs to be requested in advance, which I 'm ok with; decided to request it once during our stay... We didn't get toilet paper supplied, they provided clean towels but didn't take the 2 day old used ones away, and they didn't refill the shower gel container so I ran out of it on my last morning... I expect more if room cleaning / service is requested.... Other than that, front staff very nice and helpful.

All in all, it was a nice hotel, the beds were comfortable and good environment. However, one of the rooms had a bad odor from the bathroom. In the other room, I found a razor part on the shower, didn’t seem like they cleaned all the way. Lastly, we asked and were granted late checkout (an hour extension) but the cleaning staff kept coming into one of the room since 8 am trying to start cleaning. Checkout starts at 12 pm, that’s ridiculous that they start annoying people and opening doors without even knocking. For the other room, they knocked but still it’s very annoying apart from the fact that they extended the checkout time until 1 pm. We left before 1 pm, not sure I would stay there again.
