Family Travel Tips
Reserve family accommodation several months before travelling during school holidays, summer and Christmas. Larger family rooms are available in much smaller numbers than standard rooms and often sell out first.
Choosing accommodation close to Norrmalm, Kungsholmen or Djurgården allows families to minimise daily travel while remaining close to museums, parks, ferry terminals and Stockholm's major attractions.
