Stockholm, the Swedish capital, is a city by the water. The Stockholm Archipelago, a cluster of about 3000 islands and rock formations, begins just a few minutes away from the city. But even in the center, you’re never far away from a shore, watching the boats go by.
Nature has a hold on the place. In Summer, life takes place outside, with picnics and open-air parties that last long into the light-filled nights. And in winter, people are cozying it up inside, with candles and cinnamon buns for fika, the traditional afternoon break.
Fashion lovers hang out in Södermalm, tourists can be found in Gamla Stan, the stunning old town close to the massive royal palace. We take you all around town with our top picks for 12hrs in Stockholm.

The building that Miss Clara Hotel in Stockholm occupies used to be a school for girls. What remains of this history are some black and white pictures on the walls – depicting the former life of the building, old signage, and the name, Miss Clara, which is that of a former headmistress that reigned here.
Everything else inside has been refurbished into a beautiful hotel with paired down Scandinavian interiors and hardwood floors. The rooms are spacious and light, and the hotel’s location is a wonderful starting point for exploring the city. Gamla Stan – the old town – and Stockholm’s main shopping streets are just a short walk away. This is affordable luxury at its best.

No worries about oversleeping and missing breakfast: at Pom & Flora, breakfast is served all day. This very popular neighborhood spot is run by husband-and-wife duo Anna and Rasmus Axelsson. They serve simple dishes, made with fresh produce and often add a tasty twist.
On the menu are lots of varieties of bowls and porridge, sweet treats and heartier dishes, as well. Many of the dishes are vegan and gluten-free. It gets crowded here on the weekends, but there is a second Pom & Flora location on Bondegatan in Södermalm.

Nitty Gritty in the Södermalm neighborhood is one of Stockholm’s most well-known and best menswear stores. While many of the brands that are sold here share a Scandinavian aesthetic, most are sourced from all over the world.
There’s Nanamika and Comme des Garçons Shirt from Japan, A.P.C. from France, and Margaret Howell from the UK. Nitty Gritty’s sneaker selection is also worth a look, as is their small but mighty selection of skincare. There’s also a smaller women’s store down the street.

Usine
This massive space combines three different gastronomical concepts – a Paris-style bistro, a café, and a bar – under the roof of a former sausage factory. The stunning space is vast and light-filled, with many custom furnishings and large art displays.
Lunch is served daily from 11 am to 2 pm in the bistro that serves French classics with a Scandinavian twist. There is always a daily special (if it happens to be Köttbullar, the Swedish meatballs, go for those!) as well as some bistro staples and several vegetarian options on offer, as well. Please note that Usine is a cash-free restaurant.
Barobao serves a tasty and healthy mix of Asian foods; bao buns, of course, but also ramen and tataki. Their take on all of those classics is inventive and delicious, with the celeriac bao and the beef slider among our favorites.
At lunch, you can choose between two meat baos, two vegetarian baos, or a mix of both, or you can order one of their healthy bowls. For dinner, you have a few more small dishes to choose from. All of them or great, so mix and match.

Stockholm is the capital of Sweden and the most populous area in the Nordic countries. The city stretches across fourteen islands where Lake Mälaren flows into the Baltic Sea.
Population (metro area): 2.3 million
Currency: Krona (SEK)
Language: Swedish
Basic sentences:
Hello | Hej
Thank you | Tack så mycket
Yes | Ja
No | Nej
Maybe | Kanske
Do & Dont's:
Do: Bring your credit card. Sweden is almost a cashless society.
Don't: Drink on the streets or expect to be able to buy alcoholic beverages outside of the designated ‘Systembolaget’.
Getting around:
Stockholm is a very walkable city. There are lots of public transport options in Stockholm, including a metro system, but rides tend to be quite expensive. If you plan on using a lot of public transport, consider purchasing a SL card. One amazing upside to metro rides: exploring the different impressive stations (to see more of those, have a look at our photo story).
Dressing the part:
Stockholm is a serious fashion city and the people are proud of their local brands. Expect to see understated, Scandinavian elegance and one of the best coat games in the world.
What to order:
Food: The famous Swedish meatballs Köttbullar.
Drinks: Stockholmers love a glass of Champagne.
Three souvenirs:
- Something from the Acne Archive, the Swedish brands’ outlet store.
- A scented candle from Byredo.
- A Pippi Longstocking doll for the kids.
Copenhagen is the capital of Denmark. Renowned for its laid-back approach to design, architecture, food, and fashion, it consistently ranks as one of the most liveable cities on earth.
Population (metro area): 2 million
Currency: Danish Krone (DKK)
Language: Danish
Do: Buy a marvelous piece of pastry from one of the great bakeries in town.
Don’t: No need to exchange any cash. You can pay even the smallest amounts with your credit card.
Basic Sentences
Hello // Hej
Thank you // Tak
Yes // Ja
No // Nej
Maybe // Måske
Getting around:
Public transport in Copenhagen is quite expensive, but that doesn’t matter at all: this is a city made for bikes. Rent one from your hotel or from one of the many bike rentals in town and get pedaling.
Dressing the part:
Danes are a stylish bunch and they are perhaps the most laid-back dressers in Scandinavia. Colorful sneakers are the way to go for both women and men, the rest of your outfit can be black as night.
Three souvenirs:
- Wooden animals designed by Kay Bojesen.
- A pair of colorful knitted socks by Henrik Vibskov.
- Licorice made in Denmark (try ‘Lakrids by Johan Bülow’).

So naturally, the many varieties of fudge that are produced at the back of the shop are based on time-worn recipes, with the slightest nod to modern tastes. Everything here is delicious, and we challenge you to walk out of the shop without buying at least one piece of candy.

Skinnarviksberget
Skinnarviksberget is the highest natural point in central Stockholm and a favorite place among the locals for picnics and parties under the open sky. The views are stunning – across Kungsholmen, the old town Gamla Stan, Stockholm Town Hall, and the waterways circling the city.
The best time to come here is dusk. Bring along some (non-alcoholic!) drinks and some snacks and enjoy the sunset. The park beneath the hill also has an open-air café where you can buy food and ice cream to eat in one of the hammocks.

Punk Royal
Some people would describe the restaurant Punk Royale as unconventional, others would probably say it’s crazy. All of them, at least we think so, would agree, however, that the food here is amazing, and the dining experience something that you need to see for yourself to truly appreciate it.
This is a crossover of fine dining, a dive bar, and dinner theater with yourself as the actor. The dishes are playful and fun, think heaps of caviar, a foie gras donut or a syringe with broth.
You’ll need to book a table to dine here, which you can do directly on their website or via email. And please leave your phone in the pocket: it’s strictly forbidden to take pictures inside!
Some people would describe the restaurant Punk Royale as unconventional, others would probably say it’s crazy. All of them, at least we think so, would agree, however, that the food here is amazing, and the dining experience something that you need to see for yourself to truly appreciate it.

This is the smaller, more affordable sister restaurant to popular eatery Agrikultur. And while they serve food here as well, this place turns into a popular gin bar and hang out later at night.
It’s totally OK to show up here without wanting to eat, but if you do, you’re in for a treat, because the menu focusses on seasonal and organic ingredients that have been sourced locally.
