I missed most of Stockholm in September 2022 as I caught COVID so we are coming back for a second visit. Last time we visited Gamla Stan, Drottningholm Palace and the Moderna museum, and had a lovely walk around Skeppsholmen and out to the Kastellet before I got sick.
My husband spent the five days I was sick walking around so he has seen pretty much everything on Sodermalm as we stayed at Hotel Rival which, by the way, was a lovely place to be sick. Good room service menu and breakfast on a tray. Coffee machine and fresh fruit available all day.
We will be staying at Hotel Rival again. Despite this hotel choice, neither of us (60 and 74) have any interest in anything ABBA related so the ABBA museum is not on our list.
Our things to do list is currently:
- Vasa museum
- Fotografiska museum (the cafe has been highly recommended for lunch)
- Army museum
- Day trip to Uppsala
We would like to see something of the islands near Stockholm but are not sure what options there are - cruise or local ferry?
Anything else important we are missing?
