Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Backstage Hotel enjoys a prime location, making it easy to explore Stockholm, with trams stopping right outside the door and ferries nearby for quick access to Gamla Stan. Guests appreciate being within walking distance of major museums like the Vasa and the ABBA Museum, the latter being in the same building and offering discounted tickets. The complimentary breakfast receives consistent praise, featuring both buffet and à la carte options with varied milk choices; however, some guests have noted that certain rooms felt smaller than expected based on online images. the hotel offers a convenient and comfortable base for discovering the city.

The hotel has a very good location next to the Allmänna Gränd ferry stop. Grönalund is nearby also. The breakfast is good. The rooms appear clean.

The room felt tiny. There were almost no amenities available. There was no place to put my luggage, which I disliked. There was no closet to hang up my shirts.

Breakfast was superb. Best i've had at a hotel in ages. the location is stellar, perfect for hitting up the vasa museum, the viking museum, and the abba museum. the tram stop is so close. It's a quick ride from central station, and there are ferry stops nearby. breakfast was a real treat. It totally set me up for busy days of sightseeing
