Residence Perseus Apartments

“Perfect stay in an beautiful city”

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Residence Perseus. The apartment was centrally located in Old Town and gave us a perfect experience of Stockholm.

“Beautiful apartment in Gamla Stan”

My 3 sisters and I had a wonderful week in the Glory 2 apartment. It was spacious, nicely decorated, and well-equipped. The added convenience of having a washer, dryer, and dishwasher was appreciated. We shared several meals and glasses of wine in the comfortable living and dining area. The only negative comment I can make is that a taxi or Uber has to drop you off a 2 to 3-block walk from your apartment. This adds to the charm of the location but creates the challenge of pulling luggage across cobblestones. Once we were settled in, we found Gamla Stan to be enchanting. In fact, we hated to leave! We would gladly stay in this apartment when visiting Stockholm again.

“Perfect space for wedding guests!!!”

Love love love this space. Perfect space entertaining our guests during a five-day stay in the Prestige. We were in town for a family wedding and had most of the rooms rented for the event. Absolutely perfect. Highly recommend! The space and taff were absolutely wonderful.

“How Away from Home”

Nestled right in the heart of Stockholm’s Old Town and within walking distance to the city’s museums, restaurants and tourist sites, by staying at Residence Perseus, we found ourselves in the centre of the city’s history, culture and convenience. We were two couples visiting Stockholm for a few days (3 nights) before boarding our cruise of the Viking Homelands. The location was not only easy to find but ideal – about a 20 minute walk from the Central train station. The last half of the walk was a bit tough going, dragging our suitcases over all those cobble stones. But it was a small price to pay for staying in such a great place. Matilda was on hand to check us in and show us around the apartment. I read the description of each apartment carefully before selecting Glory 2 – a two bedroom, one bathroom unit located on the ground floor with laundry facilities. I have knee issues and find it difficult to navigate stairs. Given that there is no elevator in this building, obtaining a ground floor unit was essential. We also corresponded with Matilda before our arrival to notify her of our expected arrival time. Given that there was no elevator, being on the ground floor was ideal, no need to drag any suitcase up flights of stairs. It should be noted that there is also a laundry room located on the ground floor that is available for all guests. The apartment was very spacious and well appointed. One bedroom had a queen bed, while the other two twins, both rooms were quiet large and there was plenty of space to spread out. The bathroom had a washing machine which was well used as we had already been on the road for over a week. The kitchen was well equipped, but we only ate breakfast and the odd lunch. The sitting area/living room was huge – plenty of sitting area for the four of us and an excellent area to just relax after a full day of sightseeing. Excellent wi-fi and Net-flicks was available. This residence is perfectly positioned right in the heart of Gamla Stan. We stepped out the door, and were right in the thick of it, but in a good way. Everything we needed was within arm's reach. Need to grab some snacks or a cold drink? There's a convenience store practically next door where we picked up all the items we needed for quick meals and snacks. And when it comes to grub, we were spoiled for choice. There were restaurants everywhere, catering to all kinds of cravings. Additionally, we were able to thoroughly explore the area and used the Hop on Hop off bus and boat to visit areas located further afield. Although the area was teeming with people during the day, evenings were tranquil and quiet. The price was right as well – similar to what two rooms in a decent hotel would cost but having access to an entire apartment. Residence Perseus was the perfect basecamp for our adventures in Stockholm.
