Clarion Hotel Stockholm

The Södermalm location at Skanstull – one minute from the underground

Clarion Hotel Stockholm is located at Ringvägen 98 on southern Södermalm, in the district locally known as Skanstull. Skanstull underground station is in immediate proximity to the entrance, and from there it takes four stops on the underground to Stockholm Central Station. This makes the hotel accessible to the entire city without having to calculate travel times – the change is straightforward and the frequency is high for most of the day. For travellers using public transport, the location is one of the strongest arguments for choosing this particular hotel.

Södermalm as a district is known for a dense range of restaurants, bars, shops and galleries. Götgatan and Medborgarplatsen can be reached on foot within a few minutes from the hotel. The district also offers green spaces and walking trails along the water in close proximity to Ringvägen, which makes it easy to combine a hotel visit with outdoor activity regardless of season.

The hotel is pet-friendly and welcomes pets. It is completely non-smoking. Parking is available for a fee adjacent to the hotel, which is convenient for those arriving by car. Reception is staffed around the clock and offers express check-in, which facilitates guests arriving late in the evening or early in the morning. The hotel is cashless and accepts card payment only in all parts of the facility, which is worth knowing for guests who prefer to pay cash for minor purchases on site.

Rooms and facilities in a hotel with 532 rooms

Clarion Hotel Stockholm has 532 rooms divided into several categories, which gives guests the opportunity to choose based on needs and budget. The room categories vary in size and design, from more compact options to spacious suites. The hotel also has specially adapted rooms for guests with disabilities, as stated in the official presentation.

All rooms are equipped with air conditioning, flat-screen TV with cable channels, minibar, desk, coffee maker and hairdryer. Free WiFi is included throughout the hotel. Bathrooms have shower and separate toilet. Daily cleaning is carried out in all categories. Room service is available and charged separately according to the standard menu, which differs from services that may be included in a package price. It is therefore important to distinguish between what is included in the room price and what is added depending on the chosen booking option.

The hotel states that no extra beds are provided beyond the existing furniture in the rooms, which means that room selection should be planned carefully for groups with children or more guests. Art is a prominent feature throughout the facility – the hotel houses a collection of Scandinavian contemporary art found in public areas such as the lobby, restaurant and conference areas, but also in some hotel rooms. This gives the facility a distinct character that sets it apart from a more standardised conference hotel, and the art collection is a recurring theme in the hotel's own presentation of its operations. Guests who value an artistic environment may wish to request rooms with artwork when booking.

Elements Spa with pool connecting indoor and outdoor areas

Elements Spa is the hotel's own wellness centre and one of the most distinctive features of the facility. The spa's pool has a design that connects an indoor section with an outdoor section, which means guests can move between the two sections regardless of season. In addition to the pool, there is a steam bath and sauna within the facility. The gym is connected to the spa, and yoga is offered as an activity within the spa complex. Together, these form a comprehensive wellness offering under one roof.

Elements Spa caters to both hotel guests and external visitors, which means occupancy can vary depending on the day and season. Hotel guests receive a discount on the standard entrance fee, but access is not automatically included in the room price but is booked and paid separately if no package has been selected. Strawberrys package offers may include spa entry as an optional extra. There is also a bar in the spa. There is an age limit of 16 years for visits to the spa without adult supervision, which is important to know for families planning a visit.

Those planning a visit during weekends or peak season should book treatment times in advance directly with the hotel to secure the desired time and avoid waiting times in shared spaces. The spa is a popular destination for Stockholm residents who do not stay at the hotel, and demand can be high during popular periods. Planning your spa visit well in advance provides better conditions for an undisturbed experience.

NÒR Södermalm, Living Room bar and conference capacity for 1,100 participants

Restaurant NÒR Södermalm is located in the hotel and serves Nordic food with European influences. The menu combines Swedish traditions with flavours from Europe, which gives a profile that differs from a purely traditional Swedish home cooking-focused restaurant. During the summer season, a terrace opens on the second floor where food and drink can be enjoyed outdoors. Breakfast is served daily in the form of a buffet, but whether it is included in the room price depends on the chosen booking option and should be checked when booking to avoid unexpected charges.

The lobby space is called Living Room and functions as a bar and lounge with access to food and drink. It is an open space shared by hotel guests, conference guests and external visitors, which creates a lively atmosphere especially in the evening. The hotel is cashless and accepts card payment only in all parts of the facility, including the bar and restaurant.

The conference department is one of the largest in Stockholm with 17 meeting rooms and a banquet hall for up to 500 seated guests. The combined maximum capacity for conferences is 1,100 participants. The scale of the conference facility means that the hotel regularly hosts large events, which can affect access to shared spaces such as the restaurant and lobby during certain periods. Travellers booking during conference days should expect the breakfast buffet and lobby to be busier than normal, and it may be wise to plan breakfast time with some margin.
