Scandic Anglais

Scandic Anglais Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Scandic Anglais feels like stepping into one of those classic European hotels that actually gets it right. The lobby has this understated Scandinavian elegance — you know, clean lines and warm wood without feeling cold or sterile. It’s positioned right on Humlegårdsgatan in Östermalm, which honestly is one of the best spots you could ask for in Stockholm. I mean, you’re literally in the heart of everything, but the street itself isn’t chaotic or touristy. The neighborhood perfectly balances accessibility with authentic local character.

The Östermalm Advantage

This four-star property sits in what locals consider the most desirable neighborhood — Östermalm is where Stockholmers go when they want to feel sophisticated. Humlegården park is right there (perfect for morning runs or evening strolls), and you can walk to Stureplan’s shopping and nightlife in about five minutes. What I really appreciate is how couples seem to discover this area — they consistently rate the location 9.3, and after spending time here, I totally get why. The tree-lined streets have this romantic, almost Parisian quality that photographs beautifully. Guests frequently mention how the neighborhood offers both vibrant dining options and peaceful green spaces within walking distance.

Room Experience

The room design follows that signature Scandic approach — functional but thoughtful. You’ll find plenty of natural light (crucial during Stockholm’s darker months), and the beds are genuinely comfortable, not just hotel-marketing comfortable. Storage space is actually adequate, which sounds boring but matters when you’re unpacking for more than a night or two. The bathrooms are modern without being flashy, and honestly, the water pressure is better than what you’ll find at many pricier places in the city. Each room maintains the clean aesthetic while providing practical amenities for extended stays.

Daily Rhythms

Breakfast here is buffet-style, and while that might sound generic, they do it well — proper Swedish breads, quality coffee, and enough variety that you won’t get bored if you’re staying several days. There’s parking available on-site, which is actually a big deal in central Stockholm where street parking can be a nightmare. I’ve noticed they have quite a few repeat guests, which usually tells you something about a place — people don’t come back to hotels that disappoint. The on-site parking facility eliminates one of the major stressors of visiting the city center.

Why Guests Love It

What sets this place apart isn’t any single dramatic feature — it’s how everything works together smoothly. The staff seems genuinely helpful rather than just polite, the location gives you easy access to both tourist attractions and authentic Stockholm experiences, and the overall vibe feels more like staying in a well-run neighborhood hotel than a corporate chain property. The 7.9 rating reflects exactly what you get — solid, reliable, and thoughtfully managed without any unpleasant surprises. For the price point and location, it delivers on its promises, which is honestly more than you can say about a lot of Stockholm hotels. This property represents excellent value for travelers seeking genuine Scandinavian hospitality.

Exploring Stockholm layers royal palaces, archipelago breezes, and twilight walks beneath pastel skies.

  I wasn't sure what to expect of the windowless room, but it was quite alright, considering the price and awesome location. There was a small kettle with several bags of tea and instant coffee. The soundproofing was mostly fine.
