last minute planning help

Fellow Travelers,
We (Me, wife and grown-up daughter) are getting break from our work and planning to do a 8 day trip to Stockholm, Copenhagen and Helsinki (excluding Travel). Wish we could have more time. We are flying into Stockholm on May 25th and fly out of Copenhagen on June 3rd. We are going to Helsinki to see my nephew and stay with him for a night or 2.

We are into sight seeing and not so much into museums. We love to walk around to see things. I am just now looking into hotels in Stockholm, Copenhagen and places to visit.
Itinerary:
Stockholm - May 25th - May 28th (fly to Helsinki)
Helsinki - May 28th - May 31st (Fly to Copenhagen)
Copenhagen - May 31st - June 3rd (fly back to US)

Question:
- Should I spend more time in any one place than others?
- Any hotel recommendations

Thanks for your help

Rick Steves has an article on this site called "Wrecks, Rafts, and Replicas: Scandinavia's Remarkable Maritime Museums". This might change your idea of Museums. RS says "Scandinavia's Iking days may be lon gone, but it's legacy of Maritime exploration and (plunder) continues to capture the imagination" . There are real Viking era ships in some locations. I feel that you would enjoy them as much as I did.
