A natural meeting point in the city center. In the summer you see people enjoying the sun. During winter you see them ice-skating. Lined with restaurants and cafés, a great place to people watch!
One of the Stockholmers' favorite recreation areas and tourist destination alike, attracting over 10 million visitors per year, of which some 5 million come to visit the museums and amusement park.
View is not good, way too expensive for the price. Only do it if you have the Stockholm Card and enough time!
Head to the top - Great rooftop café during the summer months, view of the city centre. The restaurant on the same floor offers lunch of the day for SEK 90. Kulturhuset has something for everyone!
As the light falters, start shopping. Åhléns City (0046 8 676 6000; ahlens.se), the city’s landmark department store, with its gilt clock, occupies an entire block.
Great place on the water - excellent food and atmosphere. The owner is quite active in the gay rights movement. Even employed gay refugees from Uganda.
If you arrive early, check in your bag and then head over to Sky City. Much nicer restaurants, a varied choice of foods and just a quick walk away.
Head to international food market Hotorgshallen in Hotorget for fresh goods -- cured meat, aged cheese, bread, jam, fruit, vegetables. Leer más.
BEST VIEW on Stockholm for just 40 Kronen and 365 stairs with optional free elevator. My picture agrees with ildan that “A place where you can see a good view is also a good place to sit and dream!"
Very cool place at night with all the lights, and specially in Christmas season with the decorations!
Just next to Stureplan you have Biblioteksgatan, known as the number one shopping street in Stockholm. All of the more exclusive brands are found in and around this area. Pretty during Christmas time!
The Vasa Museum in Stockholm is one of Scandinavia's most visited museums. This place is home to the 17th century ship Vasa. Also has 4 other museum ships. Opens at 10am. Guided tours available.
Here, you’ll find cafés and stores including local indie brands Bönor & Blad and Supertrash.
A nice change of pace from the usual historical museum - entrance is free with the Stockholm card (incl. having a look through the telescope). No guarantee of seeing celestial objects, however.
On a nice evening with a clear view, this is a nice place to have a look at Stockholms at its best before entering into serious clubbing or whatever...
Turn the autumnal darkness to your advantage and stroll along Monteliusvägen, a quarter-mile-long hillside path on Södermalm, the boho-chic southern island.
Amazingly beautiful old food hall with a great selection of meat, seafood and other shops. Good place to have lunch.
Tuck in to delicious English breakfast food while listening to the proprietor's Lake District accent and the easy-listening Dorset pop blasting from the speakers. Definitely a new Stockholm favourite!
If you have the Stockholm Card walk around in the palace (you don't need the tour). Otherwise visit the garden. It's for free. No photos allowed inside :(
Hands down the best fast food burger in Stockholm. Great meat, fried to perfection, excellent buns and cheese. No detail has been spared here. Only setback is the risk of waiting in line for a seat.
Most appealing retail destination in town. Divine assortments, nice lay-out and great coffees and cakes at 3rd floor.
Very good Pizza, cozy parlor and nice staff. Quality ingredients - they are all sourdough! Number 5 is great.
Grab a blanket and perch outside with the best hot cocoa in Stockholm—especially with that decadent dollop of whipped cream!
One of the nicest shopping mall in Stockholm! It also has the most expensive stores, but what can you expect it is in the Stureplan area!
Popular place for lunch during the week. It's very cheap, service is fast, and food tastes good. If you are lucky, you can sit by the window and get a view of the city.
Come to the Ericsson Globe for concerts, hokey, the SkyView and much more. Just next to the Globe you'll find another big arena with lots of new restaurants and bars on the bottom floor, known as 12.
Great atmosphere and service, the portions are correct but could be bigger ! Meatballs are excellent, the sauce and lingonberries too ! A classic place to eat in Stockholm !
This is the old town of Stockholm that has been around since the 13th century. Home to the historical Royal Palace and the Stockholm Cathedral. Do some walks at the beautiful cobbled streets.
The changing of the guards: 12:15 Mon-Sat & 13:15 Sun. Stand outside the courtyard for a better view, see them coming up the hill. The first 5 min are the best, more extravagant during summer months.
Max is quality fast food and steps higher than McDonalds which is across the street. Often really busy and not much seating. Take out is an option and you can sit in Kungsträdgården across the street. Leer más.
At Nybroplan you find the Royal Dramatic Theater, the start of Stockholm's most exclusive street, Strandvägen and the start of Birger Jarlsgatan lined with restaurants and bars. Great nightlife!
The Nordic Museum is where you'll learn about Sweden's culture from the Early Modern Age. Highlights include the Power of Fashion and Swedish Folk Art collections. Mon-Sun 10am-5pm.
