What can I say, the Backstage hotel is an exceptional hotel that is easy to get to, spotlessly clean, gorgeous rooms, ridiculously comfortable bed, and the breakfast was to die for! Special shout out to the breakfast team who went above and beyond to make our anniversary stay so special and memorable, and to Rowland from the breakfast team, who we genuinely delighted in our morning conversations together, so many thanks, Sharon & Moose!

The only thing I would say that was slightly troublesome, were the blinds were slightly see through, and linked to both rooms, so when you closed the bathroom one it also closed the bedroom one, but this by no means spoilt any part of our lovely holiday at The Backstage Hotel.

Location was EXCELLENT! Staff was AWESOME! Room was great and very comfortable. Best hotel in Stockholm!

The staff was exceptional especially the following people..... Patricia and Agnes @ the FD were very professional and knowledgeable and very friendly. Great customer service. Janes in the Breakfast Area was the BEST!!! She should be the Breakfast Manager. She took care of me each morning when I arrived @ 7:30am. She always had cold milk for me...she was the GREATEST! Chimngee, my housekeeper was AWESOME, she found me a perfect pillow for my sleep. She deserves a big raise. Every staff member were AMAZING!!!

The View

I was very sad that when I accidentally booked a room, I accident chose 2 rooms & then I immediately tried to contact Bookings & got no reply back to help me cancel the unnecessary room for my Husband & Me. When we arrived in 30 minutes the nice receptionist said she couldn’t help me with this. I did realize my mistake in route to the Backstage Hotel & cancelled the room we wouldn’t be using, thinking it would open up a space for someone else?!?! So I’m Still hoping Bookings.com will credit me for the room we did not use? We are retired & & on a budget. Please review this situation we were put in & give us a credit for the room NOT USED🙏. We otherwise thoroughly loved our 2 day stay!! Thankyou, Kathy Rechsteiner

Great location for the museums. It’s easy to walk around the city, or jump on a tram right outside the hotel or a ferry a few minutes away. Staff were friendly. Food and drink in the restaurant, bar and cafe were great. Breakfast was delicious. A few things they could improve on… I told the hotel it was a birthday celebration but no effort was made which was a shame. For the price I’d like a coffee machine in the room, but there was just cheap dried coffee and one creamer sachet, which is disappointing when Sweden does coffee so well. Also no sufficient shower screen so the water goes everywhere! Overall 7.5/10.

Nice room and bathroom. Excellent breakfast.

Restaurants in this area close at 10pm (kitchen already at 9pm). Good to know in advance!

Our room was excellent and looked out over the entrance to the ABBA museum (you get a discount on the entry price). Staff were friendly and helpful and breakfast was great. We had dinner too one evening which was good. We had free bikes and cycled for miles around the Stads national park.

Because of its central location for Skansen and other museums, the area was busy and sometimes a bit noisy. But this added to the atmosphere and didn’t bother us. Bars played music but it was quiet by 10.00pm.

We were very happy with our choice of hotel. Excellent location to explore town by bus, tram, ferry, or on foot. Vibrant neighborhood, restaurants and museums in walking distance. The room was spacious and I loced the mattrass (on the softer side). Breakfast was fantastic and all staff friendly and easy to talk to. Would definitely book there again. Just be informed that due to the location next to busy Tivoli it can be quite loud outside, which we knew in advance and we had no problems with.

As soon as we checked in, I knew that we were going to have a good stay! The Hotel is situated to the side of the ABBA museum which was the main reason we wanted to stay there. The Breakfast was absolutely wonderful and my daughter especially liked the Swedish cinnamon toast. The beds were super comfy and we both slept really well. The bathroom (although small and compact) was very clean and the shower was good. We had our towels changed every day. The reception staff were super friendly and answered all our questions on local restaurants and how to get about. The location was excellent. A tram/bus stop was right outside (No. 7) and this took us straight to the Central train station in the centre of Stockholm (took about 15 minutes). Our room was very retro and had everything we needed.

I can't think of anything.

Location was great, lots of museums and attractions were in walking distance. Even one of them right in the same building (The ABBA museum). Nice breakfast.

The central air conditioning system was very noisy at night and couldn't be turned off. On the first day, my new pajamas went missing, likely taken by the housekeeper along with the bedding by mistake. The reception staff said they would look into it, but no one informed me of any progress until I followed up myself. Only after asking a third time was I told that the laundry is closed on weekends and they could only check in a couple of days, by which time I would have already left the hotel. None of the staff ever apologized.

I really liked the location particularly as Djurgården is really peaceful but minutes away by tram from the city centre. And the tram is right outside the hotel. Also loved the breakfast! Great choice at buffet and from the menu.

Nothing particularly though we did have a loud clanging sound outside our hotel room that was quite constant. There looked to be building work (at a halt possibly) at a next door building and that may have been it. Possibly the furnishings and finishing a not quite as high quality as they look in the photos.
