A tour of the Stadshuset in Stockholm is definitely worth the time and the admission fee. Seeing the hall where the Nobel banquet is held is interesting for a number of reasons - understanding a bit more about the Nobel Prize ceremony, seeing some highly regarded Swedish architecture (and some bizarre mosaics) and visiting the Council Chamber for Stockholm's city...

The gardens and exterior of Stadhuset are free to the public, we had a nice rest from all the sightseeing in the south facing gardens with its fountains and statutes. The tower is 40 SEK (about £4) and you need to purchase a ticket in advance for a designated time slot (especially when its busy). There is an elevator halfway... More

Loved it. Did the tour: a MUST. Almost didn't. So glad we did. LOts to learn. Went up the Tower: incredible. The lift/elevator wasn't working so we walked all the way. Believe me, the views are well worth it. And you get to see the huge statue of St. Eric on the way. Wow!!!

This is a place you must visit, no doubt. Just to know that you can walk where all the dining tables are placed for one of the most important events of the world: The Nobel Prize Banquet, it's worth the visit. Don't miss the The Golden room as well, it is impressive.

After spending 17 enjoyable days in Scandinavia (though Norway was a ripoff), I think that my day here was most interesting. Well informed tour guides did a marvelous job of detailing everything from the Nobel Prize award ceremony (which is held here) to the nature of local political issues. And the building's diverse beauty provided several great photo opportunities. I... More

You'll probably learn a lot of interesting informations from the guided tour (unless you're too busy doing something else) Besides the room with fresco paintings, they'll allow you take pictures.

City Hall is definitely a must-see in Stockholm. The outside is iconic and the views are beautiful across the water to Sodermalm and Gamla Stan. And the inside is definitely worth the admission and tour. The rooms are beautiful and majestic. A great experience and a must-see.

We didn't know what all the fuss was about until we did the tour. The exterior is a large, attractive building, but does nothing to hint at the interior splendor. Many of the rooms are decorated with traditionally painted ceilings (some recycled from other buildings), stunning fabrics and wallpaper. But the long hallway which serves as the banquet hall for...

Lovely place to visit with a large well kept garden. Missed the tower climb because the lift was out of order. Excellent guided tour around the house. The gold room was impressive.
