Day 1: Explore the heart of the city

Morning: Breakfast at Hotel Ruth and Gamla stan

Start the day with a long and lovely breakfast with us at Hotel Ruth in Vasastan. With fresh ingredients, freshly baked bread and a wide selection of treats, you'll have the perfect start to the day. When you're satisfied and content, it's time to head towards Gamla stan.

Stroll through the narrow streets, admire the colourful house facades and visit attractions like the Royal Palace and Storkyrkan. Don't forget to have a coffee at one of the charming cafes, such as Chokladkoppen or Kaffekoppen.

Lunch: Flavours from the sea at Nybrokajen

Continue your walk down to Nybrokajen, where you can enjoy a lunch with a fantastic view over the water. Places like Sturehof or Taverna Brillo serve top-class dishes with fresh seafood and local ingredients.

Afternoon: Djurgården and museums

After lunch, it's time to discover Djurgården. Here you'll find several of Stockholm's most popular museums and attractions. Visit the Vasa Museum to see the impressive 17th-century ship, or take a trip to ABBA The Museum if you want to experience Swedish music history up close.

If you prefer a calmer afternoon, you can walk or rent a bike and take a tour around Djurgårdsbrunnskanalen. Don't miss out on a coffee break at Rosendals Trädgård!

Evening: Dinner and cocktails in Vasastan

Back in Vasastan, it's time for dinner. Restaurants like Lilla Ego and Främmat offer exciting dishes focusing on Swedish flavours. End the evening with a cocktail in our bar.


Day 2: Archipelago and shopping

Day: Archipelago tour

Take a boat from Strandvägen and head out to Fjäderholmarna – the nearest archipelago island, perfect for a day trip with walks, craft shops and lunch by the water.

Evening: Relaxed dinner and rooftop bar

Round off your weekend with a relaxed dinner at a trendy bistro, such as Babette or Bar Nombre. If you want to enjoy Stockholm's skyline, you can end the evening at a rooftop bar like Tak or Arc Rooftop.
