Scandic Grand Central is situated in the heart of Stockholm city and close to shopping, restaurants and Arlanda Express. Many of Stockholm’s most know attractions as “Gamla Stan”, the Royal castle and Vasamuseet are within walking distance.

The building is 130 years old and the hotel opened recently as a Scandic hotel. It’s a big hotel with many rooms and long hallways and there are many different types of room to choose from. The one I stayed in was a King Room.

At the working space you had the option to connect your PC/DVD etc. to the TV, a lot of different plug ins was available.

A big LCD TV at the end of the bed.

In the bathroom there was soap, shampoo and conditioner (not very often) and of course a hair dryer.

Scandic Copenhagen - Room 1455

Scandic Copenhagen is situated downtown, close to the central railway station and only 2 mins from Stroeget shopping street. All 18 floors have been undergoing a major refurbishment which was completed June 2012. The view from the rooms on the highest floor is magnificent, this is the view from my room on the 14th floor (overlooking the city and in the far distance you can see the bridge to Sweden)

The room is quiet big and besides the working space there was a small seating area close to windows, where you could enjoy a book and the view over the city:

In the room was an iron board, a small safety box and hair dryer. A LCD tv with Danish and international TV-channnels.

The bathroom was equipped with shower and soap dispensers

The wireless is always free of charge at Scandic :) - which a lot of other hotels could learn from.
