Stockholm 2026 - Part 1

On The Way To Sweden
 
Thursday - August 20th 2026
 
My parents wanted to visit Stockholm for quite some time now and so Claudia and I decided to take the trip with them together. Thursday noon my parents picked us up and then we drove to Salzburg Airport from where we departed in the early afternoon towards Frankfurt. From there we had to catch a connecting flight to Stockholm, where we arrived in the evening. After taking the Arlanda Express into the city, we checked in to our hotel. We stayed at the Radisson Blu Royal Viking, because it was conveniently located just next to the main train station and Gamla Stan was in walking distance.

After checking in and dropping off our luggage we headed out into the city, because all of us were hungry. We decided to check out the restaurants in Gamla Stan and soon we found a lovely Italian restaurant called Da Peppe. We got a tale outside and soon we ordered our pizzas and pastas. The food was really good and so we had good start into our weekend trip. Afterwards we just strolled around Stockholm until we returned to the hotel and got a couple of drinks at the hotel's rooftop bar before calling it a day.
