Haymarket by Scandic
Stockholm, Sweden
About this Hotel
Haymarket by Scandic is a stylish hotel housed in the former PUB department store where Greta Garbo once worked. Its Art Deco interiors evoke the glamour of 1920s Stockholm, with velvet furnishings, brass detailing and a lively brasserie spilling onto Hötorget square. From here you can explore the market stalls outside, catch concerts at the nearby Stockholm Concert Hall, or walk to the famous Kungliga Operan.
Each room is thoughtfully decorated with vintage touches and modern comforts. Enjoy cocktails at the chic Americana Bar before venturing out to discover Stockholm’s rooftop bars and cosy cafés. During the day, take a short stroll to Norrmalm’s shopping avenues or wander through the nearby Haga Park, home to the Butterfly House and Chinese Pavilion.
Haymarket offers a uniquely Swedish stay that blends cultural history with contemporary hospitality. It’s a perfect choice for travellers wanting to immerse themselves in the fashionable side of Stockholm while staying close to major sights.

Gym Review
The hotel’s boutique gym continues the Art Deco theme with marble accents and warm lighting. While modest in size, it includes treadmills, exercise bikes and a stair climber for cardio fans. There’s a rack of dumbbells up to 15 kg and a multi‑press machine to maintain strength training.
A mirrored wall and Pilates mats provide space for stretching or bodyweight exercises. The atmosphere feels more like a private studio than a standard hotel gym, which makes working out feel like a treat rather than a chore.
If you prefer to exercise outdoors, the hotel’s concierge can point you towards running routes through nearby parks and along the waterfront. Overall this gym is ideal for maintaining a basic fitness routine in stylish surroundings.
