Book Best Western Stockholm Archipelago accommodation from AU$96

The staff at checking in at recptionwere rude, disinterested and not helpful at all. We were early for check in and we asked if we could leave our bags with him, we were told just leave them in the lobby where anyone could have access to them. He then proceeded to leave the re option area. There were no glasses or drinking cups in the bathroom or bedroom and when I went to reception to ask for them the attendant merely said "what do you expect at a 3 star hotel".... no apology! There was no TV remote either and we had to go down again to reception and when the lady rought 3 of them, she was not sure how to use them. The weekend breakfasts were very good, but on the Monday . morning the good loaves of bread were not there and when we asked for them were told they dont have have any and just walked away. Same guy, same attitude a d no apology. Definately can not give any recommendation.!!!! Disgusting behaviour.. Hotels.com please drop them.

I was staying in Lidingo again - just one night. The Foresta hotel is perfectly located. Don't let the 1960s facade outside put you off - they have done the inside up very well. Terrace bar outside is pleasant with decent weather, with loads of seating inside when not. The 6th floor restaurant is excellent. Be sure to use that - and take in the view of Stockholm. Not much parking at the hotel, though. Check-in is at the bar through the entrance. Nice staff. The new spa opens soon, apparently. Recommended.

The hotel is fairly nice, and should be a classy, tasteful place - but at nighttime it's very NOISY because the bar on the first floor operates until 0100 (at least...) with very loud rock music played at high volume. For both nights of my stay I had throbbing rock thumping in my room and I could not sleep until 0200. On Sunday morning it was only quiet for 5 HOURS 0200-0700. The staff arrived to set up breakfast and started playing loud music again! Another weird thing: there's a bar on the ground floor that's closed but the same music plays on speakers in the street full blast: it must be hell for the neighbours as well as the guests with rooms above. I do not understand the service ethos of this hotel. It felt like the bar was more important than the hotel guests, and that if you asked them to respect the hotel guests' right to a decent night's sleep they would ignore you. I had a miserable weekend here. Other problems: in a room that cost 3500 SEK/283 UKL/325 EUR per night, you would expect a safe, tea and coffee-making facilities and bottles of water: there were none of these basic amenities. We expected the housekeeping to make up the room at least once on the weekend and they failed to do so (we left the 'Please make up the room' tag on the door, a waste of time). The breakfast was okay. The dining room's kitchen was slow, but produced amazing food and the service was fairly attentive although the wait staff were embarrassed by the slow kitchen.

Trevlig personal. Stimmigt receptionsområde. Bra restaurang men rummet var trist - beige så att säga. Funktionsanpassat men luktade mediciner och hade inget inbjudande i varken färg, konst eller dekoration. Kändes mer som ett vandrarhem än ett hotell.

Clean room

Nice for my family to stay at. We enjoyed the pool and sauna and gym facilities.
