A stylishly designed hotel perched above the Slussen interchange on Södermalm with spectacular panoramic views over Gamla Stan, the water and the city skyline from many rooms and the bar.
Scandic Slussen occupies a distinctive elevated position above the Slussen interchange at the northern tip of Södermalm, the island that connects Stockholm's southern districts to Gamla Stan. The hotel's elevated setting produces some of the most arresting views available in a Stockholm hotel: from the upper floors and the bar, guests look across Riddarfjärden bay toward the City Hall, across the rooftops of Gamla Stan and northward toward Norrmalm's skyline. This panorama is one of the defining attributes of a stay here.
The Slussen area is undergoing long-term urban redevelopment, with the interchange itself being reconstructed, but the hotel remains fully operational and the neighbourhood is well served by Slussen metro station (red and green lines) and bus connections to the entire city. Gamla Stan's medieval lanes are a two-minute walk over the bridge.
The hotel contains approximately 262 rooms spanning standard, superior and view categories. Opting for a harbour-view room commands a premium but delivers the full benefit of the location. Rooms are finished in Scandic's clean, Nordic-influenced style with natural materials, thoughtful lighting and comfortable beds. A fitness centre is available, and the hotel's restaurant and bar make strong use of the view with floor-to-ceiling glass on the upper levels.
Service follows the Scandic chain's reputation for efficient, eco-conscious hospitality — the brand has a strong sustainability record across its Nordic properties. The hotel appeals to travellers who want a Södermalm base with exceptional views, quick access to Gamla Stan and straightforward metro connections to the rest of Stockholm.
