Hotel Kung Carl

Hotel Kung Carl is at Birger Jarlsgatan 21 in Norrmalm, in a 19th-century building near Stureplan and Berzelii Park. The boutique hotel sits on one of central Stockholm's main avenues, a short walk from Kungsträdgården, the Östermalm shopping streets and Östermalmstorg metro station, with the Royal Dramatic Theatre and the waterfront at Nybroplan also within walking distance. Room types are Standard, Superior and Suite, with indicative double-room rates from about SEK 1,500 to 2,800 per night, placing it in the upscale category. Amenities include Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a fitness area, breakfast and a restaurant or bar, which provide the comforts expected by business and leisure travellers. There is no pool or full spa. The building's period architecture gives the property a classic character, and the service is boutique in scale, suited to couples and professionals who want a refined, central base without the size of a large chain hotel. Dining on site is supplemented by the numerous restaurants and bars in the Stureplan area, which range from relaxed cafés to high-end venues. For visitors to Stockholm, Sweden, the location allows most central sights to be reached on foot, and the nearby bus and metro lines connect to Gamla Stan, Djurgården and the central station. The avenue can be busy with traffic, so guests sensitive to noise may wish to request a higher floor or an inner-facing room.
