HOTEL KUNGSTRÄDGÅRDEN
Stockholm
The Hotel Kungsträdgården , the King ’ s Garden , is a privately owned 4-star hotel in a conveniently central location in Stockholm , practically on the edge of the royal gardens from which the hotel takes its name , with the Archipelago being about 5 minutes on foot , the central station about 7 minutes , the Old Town about 15 minutes and there is easy access to trams , buses and metro . The Kungsträdgården is a modern hotel with Gustavian architecture , dating from the early 18th century . Woodwork and historic details have been painstakingly preserved in this charming , characterful hotel with its 94 bedrooms . The original building was constructed in 1764 for Countess Eva Bielke , in stone , an innovative material at the time . Purchased in 1769 by Count Carl Gustaf Piper the building remained in the hands of his family until 1976 and then bought by the current owner in 2010 . It underwent a careful renovation and opened as a hotel in 2015 , its courtyard adorned with one of Europe ’ s largest chandeliers . The bedrooms echo the history of the building and are decorated in the traditionally muted palettes of Gustavian style whilst having a contemporary feel . Each bedroom has a unique decoration . The central courtyard of the hotel has been enclosed to create a unique indoor-outdoor space with a dramatic wrought-iron staircase and is the venue for the top-class French-style Brasserie Makalös , where breakfast , lunch and dinner are served . In this area , which also happens to be underneath the crystal chandelier , with more than 11,000 hand-bound prisms and a weight of over 400 kilos , you can also sit and enjoy a pre-dinner aperitif . A charming and beautifully appointed hotel of character .
