We recently returned from Sweden where we had a 4 night stay at the Prince Philip. The hotel itself was very nice. Clean rooms, comfy beds, nice staff, and delicious free breakfast. The breakfast was very generous, not just fruit and coffee with stale rolls, which is so often the case with free breakfast. It consisted of swedish pancakes, waffles, eggs, many types of cereals, breads, cheeses, fruits, meat, fresh baked rolls and sweets-breakfast alone was worth the price of the stay!
However, it is not located inside of Stockholm, but rather a 20 min ride on the underground. Some of our family members who we were visiting in Stockholm, told us the area where the Prince Philip is located is not the nicest area. We found the area to be ok-just a bit out of the way.
It is very centrally located to the underground and a large shopping mall and of course, a large Ikea. The hotel is practically connected to the station and the mall, making travel very easy and shopping very easy. There is a nice food court at the mall and lots of nice stores.We bought a 4 day pass for the tube which made travel into downtown Stockholm very easy.
We spent the first week and a half in Orebro, which I highly recommend and the last 4 days in Stockholm which was about 2 days too many. Lovely city-but it is a big city-we could have seen the tourist sights in 2 days and been satisfied!
Overall-the Prince Philip is a great bargain for the money and would be ideal for a family.

As the HQ of my company is located in Stockholm, I quite often stay at Prince Philip. The hhotel is located in the outskirts of stockholm, i a business and shopping area. It is the best choice if you are coming form the Skavsta airport. The flygbussarna coach service stops right in front of the hotel. the hotel is good for both business and tourist purposes with the main companies in the area and underground line running past the hotel.
The hotel is not much fancy or elegant, but this should be expected from all nordic hotels. The rooms are small nut clean, breakfast is nice and ample, and although the building is close to a roundabout, it is not that noisy. the carpet on the foyer at some floors is a bit stained, but otherwise the hotel projects a clean and ordinary picture. 8 hrs of free internet/day comes with the room, and if you are a Choice Club member you get a 35 SeK restaurant coupon for each day of your stay, which is not that bad deal, (it bought me free beer to each dinner :).
I would recommend the hotel to travelers who want stable service, reasonable price and good connection to both inner-city and outskirts.

Stayed at the Quality Prince Philip Hotel in Skärholmen, Stockholm for a couple of nights in December 2007.

The hotel is a decent 3 star hotel, nothing more nothing less. The only issue I would have was with the sice of the room. We were 2 adults and 1 child travelling. I did request a room with either a sofa bed or fold out bed which we did get. However, with the sofa bed out there were not a whole lot of room to move around in, actually no room at all. Since we didnt really spend any time in the hotel besides for our beauty sleep it wasnt that big a deal, but still...

Breakfast was really good, self service and buffet style with a brilliant selection!

The hotel is about 20 mins from Stockholm City on the tube. It is a couple of minutes walk from Skärholmen tube station and there is also a good size shopping centre, with all the usual Swedish High Street stores. Ikea (the furniture & home interior store) is also within walking distance from the hotel as is Heron City with movie screens, amusements, restaurants etc. Perfect for a rainy day!

All in all a decent hotel, in a handy location.

Quality Prince Philip Stockholm -We stayed at this hotel for a long weekend in August 2007and took the metro every day to the centerof the city. We felt that this hotel gave us very good value for our money, we are pensioners and the price was a consideration for us. The hotel is pleasant, the room was simple but clean and airy with comfortable beds, the staff is very helpful in perfect English, the breakfast was a wonderful surprise with a great variety and large dining room, the down side is the 10-15 minute walk to the metro through a shopping center- but we would certainly return.
