Frommer's Review
This would not be our first choice for a hotel in Stockholm. But it certainly came in handy one night when we flew into Stockholm unexpectedly and nearly all hotels were full. It's a bit pricey for what you get, but is a recommendable choice. Built on a triangular lot that might remind some visitors of New York's Flatiron Building, this first-class hotel is a well-run choice in the city center. From the time of its construction in 1884 until its complete makeover in 1984, the building had many uses -- as a run-down rooming house, private apartments, and offices. The light, fresh guest rooms have tiled bathrooms with tub/showers. We found the staff most hospitable.
Facilities:
Restaurant; bar sauna; room service (7am-11pm); laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; 1 room for those w/limited mobility; dance club

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
