Forenom Aparthotel Arlanda

Everything was efficient, and the cleanliness was impeccable. I didn’t see any staff, but the instructions were clear, and remember your room’s door code. It’s called a hotel, though it feels more like a single-room hostel since the washrooms are shared. The rooms and washrooms were very clean. The room is on the small side, but its big windows make it feel much larger. There were plenty of pillows, blankets, and towels. The lighting was adequate, though brighter would be better. There’s a kitchen and a shared eating area set up like a cafe. Bring food if you’re hungry, since there’s no cafe or restaurant here and not much nearby. The closest restaurant is at the Radisson next door. For the location, the free shuttle to the airport is handy. Finding the bus can be tricky: at the airport, go outside at terminal 4 and look for the stop at the far end on the right. It’s the large yellow bus marked P3 Alpha. Get off at the Radissn hotel stop, then it’s just around the corner. Once inside the building, take the elevator to the fourth floor and follow the signs. This was a very pleasant layover stay.

We had a late flight and chose to spend our first night here. I’d read that it could be hard to find, but it was really easy for us. The studio was spotless, and the beds were extra comfortable. If I come back, I’ll definitely stay here again.

We booked through an aggregator after the payment failed on the hotel website. That led to trouble, and support wasn’t much help. When we arrived, we still didn’t have the door code, so we had to call them again. The booking was for two people, but there was only one towel and one white pillow, so the room seemed set up for just one. I wouldn’t recommend it.

The room was spacious and elegant, with a kitchen and bathroom, and the bed was large and comfortable. I accidentally booked an accessible bathroom. Getting to the airport was easy, thanks to free shuttle buses running regularly around the clock. The location is a little secluded and was hard to find at first, since it’s inside a building shared with many other businesses. Check-in uses a code they send you to open the door. It works well as a place to stay around air travel.
