This
was
my
first
stay
at
Story
Hotel
Signalfabriken,
and
to
be
honest,
my
first
stay
outside
Stockholm
City
Center.
First,
the
location:
Story
Signalfabriken
has
an
incredibly
convenient
location.
The
Tvärbanen
tram
service
is
right
outside,
making
for
a
convenient
commute
to
Solna
Business
Park
and
other
business
locations
along
the
route,
even
in
inclement
weather.
For
an
airport
commuter,
the
Flygbussarna
transfer
bus
also
stops
right
outside.
For
trips
anywhere
else
in
Stockholm,
the
Sundbyberg
tunnelbana
(underground)
and
pendeltĂĄg
(commuter
rail)
both
stop
nearby,
meaning
you
are
10
minutes
from
central
Stockholm
and
can
easily
transfer
anywhere
the
subway
goes.
The
hotel
itself
is
comfortable
and
well-appointed.
My
room
we
especially
spacious
by
Stockholm
standards,
with
a
queen
bed
and
large-ish
bathroom
with
shower.
Amenities
are
of
high
quality;
the
botanical
essences
in
the
shower
gel
were
especially
refreshing.
Breakfast
is
typical
Swedish:
fresh
breads,
meats,
cheeses,
vegetables
were
all
available.
No
pickled
herring,
though
-
a
disappointment
for
us
hard-core
Swedish
cuisine
fans.
On
the
sweet
side,
they
had
three
varieties
of
house-made
muesli,
including
one
with
chocolate
cookie
pieces
and
a
great
cinnamon
variety.
Couple
this
with
lots
of
yogurt
and
top
with
a
great
mixed
berry
compote
and
you're
in
for
a
treat.
Lunch
and
dinnertime,
Story
Hotel
serves
up
Phil's
Burgers.
Riding
the
wave
of
Stockholm
burger
greatness,
Phil's
creates
juicy,
tasty
American-style
burgers
and
thick
milkshakes.
This
is
definitely
not
Max
or
MickeyD's!
The
surrounding
area
has
a
variety
of
tasty
pubs
and
restaurants,
too.
The
Bishop's
Arms,
across
the
road
from
the
hotel,
has
a
great
selection
of
beers
on
tap
and
an
even
better
cooler.
Highly
recommended.
In
summary,
the
Story
Hotel
Signalfabriken
is
a
great
choice,
whether
you
have
business
in
Solna
or
just
want
a
comfy
base
from
which
to
operate
on
a
Stockholm
vacation.
Update
2022:
It's
the
same
great
hotel.
Everything
above
still
applies.
There
are
many
more
good
restaurants
in
the
area,
too.
Still
my
go-to
in
this
part
of
Stockholm.
