A beautiful hotel set ontop of a hill with commanding views over the outskirts of Stockholm. From our room all you could see was forest and water, and you would not know that you were less than fifteen minutes from the heart of the city.
The room (No 525) was a beauty with lovely Nordic design, with wooden floorboards, plenty of space and mod cons. Bathroom was pokie but was fully stocked with plenty of amenities.
Hotel staff were extremely helpful and flexible. With the warm weather they were able to provide a fan (alas no air con), early check in was no problem and they even happily arranged an early breakfast on the morning we departed.
The hotel is located on one of Stockholm's many islands but is only a short trip by light rail and subway to the city centre. Because of its idyllic location it was an extremely peaceful setting. The only caution is the walk from the station to the hotel is a little challenging with luggage. Its a bit steep.
Overall highly recommended.

The hotel was a bit of a trek from the train station, but easily reached by taxi. If you get a room with a view, the extra walking or money paid on a taxi is worth it! The rooms are quite spacious and the service was great. The breakfast was okay and the bar closed earlier than indicated, but you can get drinks from the front desk.

**The hotel is very close to a supermarket, which definitely comes in handy in preparation for the mega shopping opportunities that Stockholm gives its visitors.

I had reserved a room at the Hotel Foresta two month before my stay. When I arrived at the hotel at about 11 pm, the hotel was severely overbooked. They transported me to another hotel about ten kilometer farther out of town. This hotel was nicely located, but of a much lower category. The next day I returned to the hotel. I asked for a quiet room, but was given a room just above the terrasse. The noise from the other guest, enjoying their beer only died well past midnight. In the morning and during the day there were constructions going on. My room itself was nice, however the toilet needed some thorough cleaning and the sink had some cracks.
When I checked out, they were not willing to honor the price in the reservation but charged me 20% more, arguing, that currency rates had changed (even when I showed them the original price in SEK).
Regarding location, yes it takes about 10 to 15 minutes to Ropsten, but then it either takes twenty minutes walk or a cab ride (about 60 to 70 SEK) or a wait for the next train or bus. In total it should take about 40 Minutes from the city center.

Liked this hotel a lot but restaurant not open during our stay and bistro very over priced. At breakfast buffet either too few staff or male member too basy chatting to other staff. Eg. before 9am no cutlery, butter,milk or eggs out. Otherwise excellent value for money
