Ett HEM

Ett hem was part of the reason that we came to Stockholm!! We were very excited to come stay here as we have heard such great things from friends. The whole concept is that it’s a home, and it really did feel like that! It felt as though we were staying at a friends home, where we can roam around all of the shared areas and spend time anywhere, in the living room, lounges, library, garden etc. The space was designed by a famous interior designer. Our room was an attic room that was quite beautiful. We also opted to have dinner at the house; the menu changes daily depending on what the chef orders in, and on our night it was delicious. We also used their spa room / sauna which was very enjoyable. My only comment is that while the staff were all very friendly and nice, they were not always available to be found. At times I would need something and go to the main check in counter and there wouldn’t be anyone there, and I would have to roam around the house looking for someone. Same goes for the entrance. You have to ring the bell every time you come back to Ett Hem and on a few occasions, no one answered the door bell or they answered but didn’t follow up / open the door / or come to get us. I understand it’s a part of the casual home feel, but for a luxury hotel I would have preferred a little more availability… Great stay overall though!!

震撼美味！！ 太厲害了！！ 強烈推薦！！ 室內裝修的典範！！

I had such high expections of this place and unfortunately the disappointing started immediately. We stood outside with another hotel guest that was ringing the bell for a good 5mins, and in January that’s not a great start. When we were greeted Caroline the receptionist wasn’t super friendly, it felt like we came to a friends house. Maybe that’s the whole point but I would have loved a more professional approach, more explanation but I was just glad they finally opened. We had two suites (I wouldn’t call it a suite, super tiny rooms and cluttered) and booked an early dinner because it was either that we had to pick from. The dinner was the most disappointing of all. A Swedish classic apparently with 3 meatballs and pasta with butter sauce. I’m Swedish and definitely never heard of pasta and meatballs as a classic. Potatoes sure but pasta and meatballs to me without any sauce or vegetables was really terrible. I did talk to the chef the next day and he apologized for his colleges and they removed the food bill. I would have preferred to have a nice meal and paid for my meal. Breakfast was confusing. When I come down I sat down with my family and wasn’t offered a thing. They gave the kids porridge without asking anyone what they wanted. My dear daughter asked if she could have pasta but the answer was of course no. I was at the table for an hour but not a question if I wanted a coffee or anything at all. It’s a special hotel because it’s someone’s home but it’s far away from everything you want like shopping etc. its close to center but it’s not necessarily central. I would 1000% prefer LYDMAR hotel over this place with more professionalism, same style but a bit bigger and CENTRAL. Will not return or recommend.
