Stockholm’s new five star At Six Hotel opened in March 2017 at 6 Brunkebergstorg (hence the name). This area was once a haven for socialites that became jaded over the years. That’s now changing as the area regains urban street cred and is now the hip new centre for the city’s growing art scene. Certainly, this modern hotel looks slick and chic with its typically Scandinavian décor of crisp lines, pale wood and white walls.
It has a convenient location in the Norrmalm area, a commercial and cultural hub close to the central station and for exploring the rest of the city.
Their modern take on Swedish traditional food in the hotels restaurant make this a hotel for anyone wanting a slice of the Scandinavian ideal.

Guest room at At Six
The rainfall shower and organic bathroom amenities by c/o Gerd from Swedish Lapland, At Six Special Edition, are just the ticket before slipping into the complimentary bathrobe and slippers and sampling the “mix your own” cocktail bar. The large bed with an assortment of pillows will help you get the best nights’ sleep.
Food and Drink
Breakfast is served in the dining room where there are international and Swedish options available. The cinnamon buns are baked fresh daily on site and the homemade herb cream cheese compliments the smoked salmon on rye cracker bread brilliantly.
During the day, the hotel’s coffee house/wine bar/deli, Blanche and Hierta is available to relax over a beverage and take in the people traffic of Brunkebergstorg.
As the sun sets, the dining area is transformed into a restaurant under the steady hand of Andreas Askling where guests can sample contemporary cuisine from all corners of the globe. From here, head into the cocktail bar to sample one of At Six’s own cocktail recipes, carefully prepared and beautifully presented.
