Our Guide to the Best Hotels in Stockholm

Blique by Nobis, Stockholm, a Member of Design Hotels™

Designed by a world-famous architect, the Blique by Nobis knows a thing or two about style.

The Blique by Nobis is a contemporary hotel situated inside the building that was designed by the infamous Sigurd Lewerentz in 1930. Taking this vital piece of history, the Blique has used it as a base for their contemporary and visionary interiors throughout. Everything from the bedding to the font used on the hotel’s signage is representative of Lewerentz work.

The hotel is not just a homage to the iconic architect but is also a haven for those seeking peace and tranquillity. The rooftop restaurant serves pan-Asian dishes while the Origio bar has a more urban vibe.

“We were lucky enough to stay on a night when the DJ was playing in the bar, it was a great atmosphere.”

Combining luxury and prestige, the Bank Hotel is a cut above the rest.

Grandly standing on the waterfront of Stockholm, the Bank Hotel is one of the landmark buildings in the city. Offering a small selection of rooms, the design scheme is neutral tones blended with art-deco flourishes.

Hotel Skeppsholmen, a Member of Design Hotels™

The Hotel Skeppsholmen is run with military precision.

Staying in a former Royal Marine barrack is a world away from what people expect from luxury accommodation, but in the case of Hotel Skeppsholmen, these barracks have been sympathetically restored to a now modernist luxurious setting.

Larger than some of the other hotels on our list, the hotel has tennis courts, a jogging track, an on site Swedish restaurant and a typically Swedish interior. Overall, a great stay for those looking for more than just a room.
