Grand Hotel Saltsjöbaden

The view and location were lovely but the hotel needed some work to upgrade paint work etc. All the staff were friendly and helpful and it was very easy to get into central Stockholm. I was slightly surprised as a resident I was told I’d have to pay 250k to take a swim which I would have expected to be included in my stay.

You booking wrong. I call you but you help me not.

Trevligt och lugnt område.Dålig luftkonditionering i rummet.Havsutskt var en glimt av havet.Inga simstränder nära som man kunde simma gratis vid.

Beautiful location and great breakfast. Didn't have time to use the Spa or restaurant facilities

A peaceful and elegant hotel situated in a stunningly beautiful spot on the Stockholm Archipelago. The view from our window overlooking the yachts was glorious! It’s incredibly easy to access via public transport, just a stone’s throw away from the station and really easy to connect to from central Stockholm. Breakfast is seated in a palatial gilded room with chandeliers with crisp white tablecloths and the spread is delicious! The receptionists speak immaculate English and were extremely helpful with researching local ferries and local restaurants The spa was beautiful, consisting of a sauna, steam room, jacuzzi and pool. The only surprise was that there was a daily charge to use it 255 Kr per adult and 155 Kr per child. It would be better if this was mentioned in the hotel briefing to avoid children being disappointed to not go swimming every day!

The hotel is beautiful and looks out over the sea, we arrived to a lavender sunset reflecting on the water. It has a feel of faded glory, with peeling paint and interesting architecture.Our room was lovely. It has some sumptuous rooms and views. It was a further from the centre of Stockholm than I expected, but the trains are regular and it's a pleasant commute. The breakfast was delicious and varied, catering well for vegetarians and vegans. They have interesting and healthy food. The dining room has a beautiful view of the water too. There was a coffee machine in the room, but no kettle and only two coffee pods between the three of us over two days. I chose the hotel because of the swimming pool. My husband died recently and I was travelling with our sons. I'd hoped we could swim together in the pool as I'd been told it was a good therapy for grief. When I went to use the pool, I was charged 255 krona! All I did was swim and the pool was full of children and parents with babies and toddlers. This made it difficult to do also. I was so disappointed by this as it was the main reason for booking the hotel. My oldest son had gone into Stockholm to buy a swimsuit as he had forgotten to pack one, on his return I told him how much it cost and he decided not to go. I hadn't realised when booking the hotel that this was an add on, so please check if you are booking here because of this facility. The staff were all friendly and polite. The bar was empty and expensive.

Friendly staff brilliant breakfast rooms with great views. Good train link to central Stockholm. Good walking from the hotel in quiet areas by the sea

Beautiful place to be Weather was amazing which helps Hotel dominates the dining options Friendly staff Recommend

We took a one night break out of Stockholm (only a 30 minute metro ride from town) and were blown away by the location of hotel, view from the room and the peacefulness of the surrounding area. The restaurant food was good and all the staff we encountered were friendly and super-helpful. The beds were really comfortable and the breakfast selection was excellent (superb scrambled eggs)

Although the hotel is in need of some TLC, it is in a fantastic location with incredible views from the rooms facing the water. I have stayed here on many occasions and if I ever have a couple of free nights when visiting Stockholm, I always try to escape to this hotel. Its location takes some beating.
