A room with a view

Best Western Hotel at 108
Best Western Hotel at 108. Newish hotel at Sveavägen in Stockholm, just across the street from The Public Library. A bit of a controversy here a couple of years ago as the owner Richard Ghneim decided without permission to construct rooms underground. Also, a Taco Bar here if you like that sort of thing. The building dates back to 1907, the architect was Andreas Gustaf Sällström. Back then it was a public bath with two swimming pools here. It was known as Sveabadet. Oh, and the view thing. From the hotel you have a good view over the Observatorielunden. And photos from there to come, stay tuned.

1907! The building looks like it is brand new... and spotlessly clean.

Nice old building. I like it.

I like the architecture. I hope the owner was penalized at least.

What a fine building. That would be nice place to stay.

A very nice looking place and I might even try the taco bar.

The great western over my end is often a dingy looking motel with its toilets often broken. You have a magnificent looking hotel there
