Hotel berhampiran Islamiska Kulturföreningen i Stockholm, Stockholm

We stayed three nights and although our room was small it was comfortable and clean. It’s a great location for exploring an interesting area on foot. There were a few of issues however. One being a slight musty smell from the clothes cupboard. The other was a problem with the bathroom shower. The small chrome push/pull button cap cover used to change the water from main overhead shower to handheld shower, wouldn’t stay on. With a little fiddling it was possible to pull or push the small metal pommel – see photos. Also, on the shower floor was a divide which was meant to keep the water from running everywhere. This had become detached from the shower floor so would easily move. A bonus is having an excellent pizza restaurant below the hotel called Pazzi. However, be sure to book a table as the evenings are very busy. The breakfast buffet is served in the same restaurant area. The breakfast buffet was good and had enough variety to suite all tastes. We particularly liked the scrambled egg. Getting to the hotel from Arland Airport isn’t cheap. The quickest and most convenient is the Express train which takes about 20 minutes for 20€. We asked for the cheapest method and were directed to bus stop number 815 near the SkyCity exit. The bus from there takes you to Märsta Train Station in about 20 minutes. The train from there takes about 40 minutes to Stockholm. The bus fare is about €3 and the same ticket can be used on the train. So if you have the time and want to save money then this could be an option.

l'hotel è in una posizione ottima, vicino alla fermata skantsull della metro ma in generale vicina al centro (in 20 minuti a piedi si può tranquillamente arrivare a gamla stan, l'unica cosa è che la strada è in salita, ma secondo me davvero fattibile). La sera il quartiere non mi ha dato il massimo della sicurezza, ma sono opinioni personali. Questo hotel è uno dei pochissimi hotel a Stoccolma che ha il bagno in camera, motivo che ha portato me e il mio amico a sceglierlo. Si tratta di una struttura interrata, la stanza non ha finestre (se è una cosa che vi dà fastidio non sceglietelo, non capisco sinceramente le recensioni negative che lamentano questa cosa, viene detto esplicitamente durante la prenotazione). Comunque niente di strano, a Stoccolma a quanto pare si usano le stanze senza finestre e col bagno in comune. La struttura mi è piaciuta, coerente con le aspettative, di certo non va bene se cercate una struttura di lusso, ma se siete a Stoccolma per visitare e usate la stanza solo per dormire è perfetta. Le mie 4 stelle sono dovute a un paio di cose un po' meh: -l'addetta alla reception non capisce e non parla molto bene inglese, però comunque ce la si fa insomma (nota in più: siamo arrivati prima del check-in e la nostra camera non era pronta, la ragazza ci ha dato un'altra stanza per farci accomodare prima, trattamento assolutamente non scontato) -la colazione è per il 99% salata, l'unico dolce è una marmellata, nemmeno un dolcino tipico svedese o una merendina. Io non sono fissata con la colazione dolce, ma nemmeno la scelta del salato era un granchè.. -il letto si disfaceva letteralmente mentre dormivi, e io dormo in posizione abbastanza statica. Al mattino ti ritrovavi a dormire letteralmente sul materasso e il letto, formato da due materassi uno sopra all'altro si spostava tutto. Per il resto, la stanza ci stava, era piccolina ma appunto solo per dormire va più che bene, idem il bagno, la doccia spaziosa, il wifi sempre funzionante e ottimo Ripeto, se non avete troppe pretese e non siete schizzinosi questo hotel va benissimo

Brillant Location, fascinating hotel interior concept with a camping atmosphere. The design language of the hotel is everywhere. Since its an ”affordable luxury” quantity business modell the rooms are scaled to the minimum maximum. If its fully booked the very good breakfast shifts into a factory atmosphere. We were very pleased - we discovered Stockholm almost by walking only. Despite of the darkness because of dimmed light inside and the flaws - would book it again.

The location of the hotel is superb. The metro is just below the hotel. Airport express is just behind and it is a stone throw to many shopping and restaurants. Room was spacious and comfortable. I like that the room is bright too. Amenities were nice and sufficient. Breakfast spread was good too. Cleanliness on the daily cleaning is lacking as they only tidy up the beds and no cleaning of floors was done. So I feel it can be improved. Generally staffs were friendly and helpful.

Clean, compact & comfortable. Walkable distance from central train station. Down comforters, scenic view from our large window, large screen tv, clean bathroom with shower, free Wi-fi, self check-in (we didn’t have a reservation so we had to check-in with a staff person). We had a “Compact Double” Room for 1,689,00 SEK (about $156 USD) and it was worth it!

Ticked pretty much every box, although I found the electronic check-in/check-out system time-consuming (checking-out didn't work properly either) so hopefully that can be improved.

Breakfast was quite nice. The room is kept clean and tidy. The overall feeling is good.

First impression - when we got into the apartment we booked we were shocked to see it was much, much smaller than presented in the pictures - see attached presentation pics vs reality. We immediately went to the reception to show them the obvious difference, when one of the front desk officers, named Joel was quite deffensive and strongly rejected my entitled claim to get the proper apartment as per my booking. He said the pics in the presentation were made with wide angles, therefore we need to accept this is the correct room, no mistake was dine. I insisted upon the obvious but I had no one to talk to in order to fix my problem. Later on I made the same complaint to Trip.com - they tried to reason with Joel, but got the same nagative attitude. Joel saga doesn't end here, unfortunatelly... The whole administration of the building might be a bit control freak. Why? Because Guests can not have full control of their room. You can not adjust the air conditioning yourself - you have to call the reception to adjust the room temperature for you. You can not open any window - you have to ask the reception for the window handle, which guess what? It's only one window handle for all of the rooms in the building and each room gets the handle for 1 hour max or at least so it should be if Joel doesn't have other opinion about it. One evening, upon request, Joel gave me the handle and told me to open the windows quickly and give it back to him fast as others needs it now too. I was shocked of course. ***??? Where is my hour? How am I supposed to close the windows then after? Oh...I have to get downstairs to the reception and get it back so that I vould close my windows. BUT wait!! Joel remembered to fully read the post it his colleague gave him before coming upstairs to my room and saw my room number was last on the list and therefore I can keep the handle for a longer period time. He was doing me a big favor. That was his attitude like. Very unprofessional, cold and really wrong attitude for someone working in hospitality. I am afraid I had to react this time and asked him what is his problem really, as it looks like it has a particular problem with me and therefore to any of my requests to get the proper service and comfort I payed for. Joel's Lady colleague was much nicer and helpful. He should follow her example if he wants to stay in hospitality. I left with a bitter taste and very dissapointed with the whole experience at Biz Apartment Bromma due to this important details of my accomodation there. The Biz Apartment concept is pretty nice though overall, is quite new, the location is indeed a bit far from the city, but within easy reach by metro, which has the station right in front of the building. You need to change at Alvik for the green line towards city center. It is also easy to reach from Arlanda Airport by train up to Solna station and than by metro. Downstairs there is a huge supermarket where you can get anything you need for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The apartment is equiped with everything essential to prepare some meals ( microwave, electric stove, dishwasher, toaster, etc.) The bed was very comfortable. A bit too cold in the room. If I were to get the more spatious apartment as per my booking pics, my own window handle and proper room temperature I would book this place again, no doubt.

I booked their single room without window, as I both have no need for excessive in-room amenities and also greatly enjoy small, cosy places (this is not a sarcastic statement: I truly loved the tiny room). There was enough space in the room for the bed, an additional cutout for a small desk, and the private bathroom was nearly twice the size of the rest of the room itself. The walls were painted in a dark grey or purple, as were the bed dressings. It was a perfect, cosy little nook in which I could sleep and unwind a little. Their breakfast is pretty standard fare, no complaints nor highlights. I was content with the mini croissants, yoghurt and fruit; though an unsweetened yoghurt option would have been nice (but again, not a complaint). One issue I have however is with the parking fees. It is advertised on the hotels.com website, as well as the English version of the hotel's own site that parking is SEK100,-/day. However, their internal system, and as I later found while verifying, their Swedish website both state SEK150,-/day. I did not follow up on this until the next day as I arrived late in the evening and checked the listings after having checked in. The monetary difference is negligible, however this was frustrating to be presented with at the point of payment and not updated across the platforms this hotel advertises on. When I asked at the desk about it and showed the FD staff the hotels.com and English version of their site with the lower amount, I was given an apologetic look and the professional version of throwing one's hands up in helplessness. I don't expect grovelling nor immediate refunds (I have read r/TalesFromtheFrontDesk for long enough) but at least a mention that it will be sent up the chain of command would allay my feeling of being misled. Parking in any case is in an underground lot accessible via your hotel card key.
