What guests think

At Best Western Hotel Karlaplan, travellers highlight friendly service, a quiet yet convenient Östermalm location near Karlaplan metro, generally clean rooms, and a popular breakfast, while noting compact rooms, some windowless options, temperature control issues, and a cramped breakfast area.

Facilities are modest, with a single small elevator; several guests appreciated the inner courtyard and free lobby coffee and snacks.

Expect a well-located, value-focused stay in a quiet neighborhood.

Ett mycket trevligt hotell som vi gärna kommer tillbaka till. Ligger bra till, tyst och lugnt. Bra frukost, sköna sängar. Mysig innegård för frukost, kaffe eller ett glas vin. Trevlig och serviceminded personal, framförallt receptionen.

I went and got there late. they gave me my room as i walk in and i find it completely trashed. Bed is messy trashcan is full, and it REEKS. Dirty wet towels on bathroom floor and someone who doesn’t know how to flush a toilet I walk down the 8 flights of stairs, and got a new room. That was better, but still annoying to have to deal with that after a full day of travelling

Var ett ok rum. Kanske lite mindre än vad jag tänkt mig. Men vi skulle ju bara sova. Ändå bytte jag upp mig, men så var bilderna finare än rummet. Så lite besvikelse på det. Hade jag haft med en kärlek så hade jag bytt direkt, men nu en kompis och lite mer fest. Men ändå lite besviken.

Non è un 4 stelle, direi un 3 stelle. Ma in una buona zona, comodo e abbastanza pulito. Unico inconveniente: non c’è un armadio, un mobiletto, una mensola un po’ grande, qualcosa per riporre qualsiasi oggetto. Solo alcune grucce appese ad una maniglia.

Gillade verkligen ALLT med hotellet. Läget, incheckning, rummen (vi hade 2), mysig frukost som vi kunde äta ute på terrassen pga av magiskt väder. Dock ett minustecken! När vi kom tillbaka efter vår konsert ca kl 01 så fick vi typ ingen kontakt alls med nattportiern. Vi köpte varsin godisbit och det tog väldigt lång tid. Inget välkomnande eller trevligt bemötande alls. Vem som helst hade kunnat ta sig in obemärkt.

Nice hotel, an old building that was retrofitted to be a modern hotel. The lady at the front desk was very friendly and helpful. The rooms are nice and clean with a large bathroom. Breakfast was very nice buffet style. There is a mall behind it with shopping, groceries and restaurants. US Embassy is a 20 minute walk. You can find pretty much anything you need in a short walk. The only problem was the noise. There was a party or something going on until 3 am. Quite unpleasant.

This hotel is a hidden gem. Hotel Karlaplan is located near Karlaplan, one of the premier addresses in the city of Stockholm. The hotel is not large, there is no fancy lobby, and the rooms and showers are small. But the location is supreme, the rooms are clean and well maintained, and they serve the same massive buffet breakfast as the top hotels in Stockholm. The staff, from the front desk to the kitchen, is outstanding. This is a small hotel, in a quiet residential area, a short walk from shopping and the metro station, where the staff will go the extra mile to make your stay perfect.
