Michelin Guide "Modern hotel right in the heart of town."
Fodor's "At this Stockholm hot spot, the rooms are modern and fresh, with white walls, dark wood floors, and primary-color bedspreads." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The Scandic Anglais hotel is centrally located beside the Humlegården park, just a five-minute walk from Stureplan." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This modern hotel is situated in the heart of central Stockholm. Guests can relax in the hotel’s spa or the more energetic can take advantage of the free gym and bike hire."
Time Out "The location is terrific, with park views to one side and all of Östermalm's shops, clubs and restaurants nearby, but the hotel doesn't live up to its swanky setting." Full review
Star Service "It is livelier and a little larger than sibling Scandic Park Hotel, but it proves a much more intimate offering than the inconsistently maintained Scandic Sergel." Full review
BlackBook "Large and sleek lobby connected with a hyped lounge bar that fills up with a young and cheerful urban mix on weekends."
