Clarion Hotel® Amaranten

- very nice view from 7th floor, fast check in and check out, good food but depends on your time slot / be fast, if not you ll not find your favorite food in the morning. - not so good with cleaning, room items( broken remote TV, dirty curtains, some problems with the bath shower

Disappointed in the hotel staff capacity. Seems like the hotel was not ready for any guests. 30 min queue to check in. Self checkin did not work. The rooms were not made. Even at 10 PM we had no bedlinen. Breakfast was a chaos. 20 min queue just to get a table. And another 20 to get food. Placed good in city center.

Firstly no parking available despite having booked my room well in advance. At the appointed check in time it was pure chaos. The automated booking system might have helped the seriously understaffed reception- except it couldn’t find my booking. Very small room, some heavy stain on the desk chair, of unknown origin but repulsive. Also someone forgot to clean the ledge above the bed, so when I put my glasses down the dust was all over. ( I also overheard a couple leaving- complaining heavily about the state of their room). When having breakfast most things that could go wrong - did. The scrambled eggs weren’t really scrambled they were barely even cooked. There was no milk, the bread was frozen and the jam had been left out for so long that it had a very thick, dried layer on top. When trying to call this to one servers attention not was clear their understanding of what was being sad was near to none. Also the server was alone for a full breakfast room. This just isn’t good enough Clarion

Amaranten has been there forever and there are few other hotels nearby, so it serves people well who want to stay in this particular area of Kungsholmen. It's a good location, very close to the metro and to many nice restaurants. It's also near to key Stockholm locations as Norr Mälarstrand and Stadshuset. The hotel rooms are small and a bit dated although they for sure have been renovated several times during the years. Sleeping comfort is high without noise from the corridor, the backyard or the AC. Good beds. The breakfast is overall nice but the lack of porridge is obvious. It would also have been nice with other coffee than just bulk coffee.

great stay for a reasonable price! I was upgraded to a nice room at 7:th floor with great sleep quality. I never used the breakfast so i can not include that in the review. Only bad thing was that i met am empty reception and had to check-in at the bar, that was also smooth and i guess also self check-in works great.
