Stockholm
Fourteen islands, one royal capital
Stockholm spreads across fourteen islands between Lake Mälaren and the Baltic. Gamla Stan's ochre facades, the Vasa warship, the royal palace and the archipelago make it the natural Scandinavian partner to a Finland trip — often reached by overnight cruise from Helsinki.
Best time to visit
May to September for archipelago cruises and long evenings.
Getting there
Overnight Baltic cruise from Helsinki, or a 50-minute flight.
Where you stay
Waterfront hotels in Norrmalm, or boutique stays in Gamla Stan and Södermalm.
