First Hotel Solna is a 75-room mid-range hotel at Bangatan 21 in central Solna, just north of Stockholm’s city limits. Travelers choose it for practical reasons: free breakfast, free Wi-Fi, an on-site restaurant and bar, and rates that usually undercut hotels in central Stockholm.
Guests should expect a functional stay rather than a destination hotel. Rooms have a clean, modern design with flat-screen TVs and cable channels, and the included breakfast buffet covers the morning before a meeting or a day of sightseeing. The restaurant and bar let you eat and drink in the evening without heading back into the city. A 3.6 guest rating reflects that mix: reliable basics and value, with fewer extras than larger Stockholm properties. Its location makes it a sensible base for business travelers working at the many corporate offices in Solna.
Visitor Highlights & Practical Info
The hotel sits about 900 metres from Solna Centrum shopping centre and its metro station, where the blue line reaches T-Centralen in roughly nine minutes (source: [Hotel-Board](https://www.hotel-board.com/hotels/first-hotel-solna-hotel-solna-sweden-878997.htm)). Mall of Scandinavia is about 2.9 km away, and the Vasa Museum and Avicii Arena are within a 15-minute drive (source: [Travel Hotels Guide](https://travelhotelsguide.com/hotel/first-hotel-solna-stockholm-se-1426656)). Book early on concert and football weekends at nearby Strawberry Arena, when Solna rooms fill quickly and prices rise. Weekday rates usually climb during conference periods, so leisure travelers often find better deals on weekends and in summer.
