Charming hotel in an old building where the style of the “ancient days” are well kept. Very helpful and serviceminded staff.
Seems as if there are many different rooms. We got a small, charming room in the top floor, while others in our group had huge rooms with draped king size beds, stove and sitting area. The bathroom was also small, but nice.
Great breakfast, but hair in the milk and in the butter the last morning made it a bit unappetizing. I also found some long hair between my two pillows when I came to bed the first night – which made me question the cleanliness.
A very quiet area, but the walls were not at all soundproof. We could hear when the guests in the room next door walked on their floor or talked in the corridor.
If you’re looking for a hotel different from the “sterile” and “A4-type”-hotels, this is definitely the right choice. All in all an interesting and charming experience.

We booked at Rex Hotel,but were upgraded to Hellsten,4 star hotel.Even bathroom was small the confort of the room was very ok!Very warm atmosphere,excellent staff:reception,bar&restaurant!Excellent live jazz concert!Good location!

Stayed here for 2 weeks with work. Hotel is nice and personalised, in good central location 10 min walk to Drottningatan (main shopping st), friendly staff, really good breakfast.
The only drawbacks are that the gym is only ok and the rooms are tiny with no storage facilities.It is therefore quite expensive for you get.

We booked this as we were visiting Stockholm for a city break.
The hotel is in a good location about a 25-30 minute walk from the main shopping area and waterfront, or alternatively a very short metro ride.
Check in was quick and friendly. The room was clean and spacious. Breakfast was good and the free internet access in the lounge was a big bonus.
