Clarion Hotel Arlanda Airport Terminal

Clarion Hotel Arlanda Airport Terminal

10/10 Excellent
"The location was very convenient since the hotel is inside the airport, although it still took about 10 minutes to get to our terminal. Breakfast was fantastic, and the room was very clean and comfortable. Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to use the gym or pool, but it was nice to have those facilities at an airport hotel."

"I think the location was absolutely perfect especially for anyone who is interested in using the public transportation in Stockholm. I chose the smallest room available but I would have liked to have a place to hang clothes. I understand this accommodation format and I believe this is a very convenient location and wonderful location for anyone visiting Stockholm"

Haymarket by Scandic

Haymarket by Scandic

8/10 Good
"This hotel has a great location, easy access to good restaurants and taxis; also not far from the waterfront and Old Town if you prefer a nice walk. The staff are wonderful, breakfast amazing. The only thing preventing 5 stars in this review is the size of our room - which was tiny - and the inability to adjust the temperature in a lasting way. I’m sure it’s done to prevent wasting energy, but if you want to cool your room in summer any adjustment to the AC is temporary. The temp always reverts to a prior setting after some time. Otherwise, Haymarket was a good choice and I’d recommend it highly."
