Grand
building
used
to
host
the
Nobel
banquet
among
other
major
events.
You
have
to
do
a
guided
tour
-
there
is
no
self
guided
option
-
check
the
website
for
timings
because
they
vary
by
season.
There
is
also
a
tower
you
can
tour
by
yourself.
However,
you
need
a
separate
ticket
for
a
visit
at
a
specific
time.
Tip
-
arrive
about
15-20
minutes
before
your
City
hall
guided
tour
is
scheduled
to
start,
purchase
a
ticket
for
your
guided
tour
of
city
hall
first
and
head
over
to
the
tower
and
purchase
a
ticket
for
the
tower
tour
before
you
start
the
guided
tour.
This
will
ensure
you
are
able
to
visit
the
tower
right
after
the
guided
tour
ends.
The
blue
hall
(actually
mostly
brick
red)
is
really
huge
and
elegant.
The
gold
hall
steals
the
show
-
it
is
really
unique
and
beautifully
done.
The
council
chamber
is
also
nice.
The
gardens
are
small
but
nice
and
the
courtyard
is
also
pretty.
The
tower
offers
sweeping
views
of
Stockholm
and
its
surrounding
waters.
Note
that
touring
the
tower
does
involve
climbing
a
lot
of
stairs
as
well
as
walking
up
slopes
(there
is
an
elevator
but
it
only
goes
up
halfway).
Anyone
with
a
health
condition
that
prevents
them
from
participating
in
strenuous
activity
should
avoid
the
tower.
Allow
about
2
hours
for
a
visit.
