Stockholm is an extraordinary city with some extraordinary hostels. The “Jumbo Stay” is located inside an old 747 Jumbo Jet. Here you can sleep in a Cockpit Suite. Sweet dreams without turbulences! Read more
Contrary to previous reviews, Arlanda Express is NOT the cheapest way to town. Flygbussarna or pendeltåg (Sky City) is cheaper. Or for rock bottom: buy SL card from Pressbyrån, bus to Märsta + pendel!
If you grab a taxi to Stockholm make sure you choose the right one. There are 4-5 rows of different taxi companies outside and there is a 200 SEK difference! Taxi Kurir is ok with 470 as fixed price.
Arlanda Express is the absolute best way to get to Stockholm. Convenient, fast, and clean. I wish more airports had a proper direct rail link to the city center!
Light, bright and breezy. Unlike other european airports they don't suffer the relenting security checks, common sense prevails! And the swedes are service minded & friendly, you'll only feel welcome
TAP’s check-in only opens 2 hours before the flights. If you arrive too early, go look around and spend some time at a bar before security. There’s one right beside TAP’s counter. Take the escalators.
I am somehow used to this airport that I am familiar with those working in the shops. Friendly staffs, security check might get crowded at times; good food and drink places inside included smoking box
"Under the Bridges" is a sightseeing tour of Stockholm by boat. It takes you around the new and old neighborhoods, giving a good overview of the city which should really be seen from the water once.
Lots of cool Swedish interior design shops and the seats at the gates are actually comfortable. I wouldn't be leaving a tip unless I was genuinely impressed. Nice one, ARN.
Visit the oldest and biggest open-air museum of the world: The Skansen on the island Djurgården. This great museum also houses Stockholm's zoo as well as really nice restaurants and cafes. Ha så kul!

Take the flygbussarna from airport into the city. It's about $20 USD per person, and the bus includes free wifi. This is about $20 cheaper than the train and about 15 minutes longer trip.
Really nice airport! It has everything.. Lots of great food and shops. There is a hotel placed inside as well, which is perfect if you have an early flight!
At terminal 5 gates 17-20, 24? Go upstairs to the observation deck for more plugs and better seating. Maybe you'll be there on a clear day and have a view, too.
Having a valid SL card you can make the trip to the city without extra charge - in the day take the 583 to Märsta and then the train into Stockholm. In the night take bus 593 straight into town.
If you arrive late you can get to the last two commuter trains (dep at 00:13 and 00:43) for free. Ticketdesk is empty and the turnstiles are open at that time.
Nice airport with good vibes. BUT needs to improve signage to be clearer throughout the airport. I completely missed simple things like Car Rental Returns (off airport) and SAS Lounge.
While the retail and F&B are mostly good across terminals, the crowds, security lines and cleanliness aren’t. Pray for a day with few(er) people or you’ll pay for it.
If you going to be here for a few days, buy the SL pass ticket for transport!! And definitely if on summer do not miss to take a boat trip to north of Stockholm it's perfect!!!!!!
Easygoing airport, but keep in mind that you can't buy alcohol from the duty free if you're traveling to another EU country. Good connections to the center of town with the express train.
Wellorganizedairport. Clean wc. free wi-fi, free drinkable water. There is baby stroller available after you gave yours at the check-in. Also luggage delivery is very quick.
Love this airport: you can work out at a SATS gym at the Radisson in Sky City, shower, shave, and grab a protein shake at the nearby Juice Bar. Best way to beat jet-lag!
If you're a lone traveller, if you team up with 1, 2 or 3 people for the Arlanda Express at weekends you will make huge savings - for example 300kr for 2 tickets instead of 280kr for 1 :-).
Stockholm is a wonderful city but Arlanda is not a wonderful airport. It' needs a fresh up and Terminal 5 is often to crowded. Hard to get a coffee when you have 10 min to spare.
Free & extremely fast wifi for all eduroam account owners everywhere inside the airport! If u need to spend some hours quietly prefer skycity terminal!
The Arlanda Express is a fantastic innovation and great service. This is the best way to go to and from Arlanda Airport to StockholmCity. Some funky tunnels too.
If you travel with kids and plan on checking in your stroller, you can borrow one from the airport by the special baggage drop area in Terminal 5 and return it at the boarding gate.
Be sure to get tax back when shopping! Global blue tax refund is next to information in T5. For premier tax, go to customs at arrivals hall and post envelope or go to Aviator counter for cash refund.
So far I had a pleasant experience in the airport. Wellorganized and even not speaking the language I was able to get to the transportation with no problems.
VERY inconvenient AirPort in case you changing flights from local to international and especially if you have a baggage - you need to go through security when switching terminals and check in your bag
