HOW TO GET THERE
Flying from Sydney to Stockholm will cost about $1500
return with Emirates. The best time to visit the Swedish
capital is in summer (from June to August), but airfares
will be pricier then. A taxi into the CBD from the airport
will set you back between $40 and $60.

EXPLORE
- ArkDes
The Swedish Centre For Architecture And
Design (above) is associated with the
Moderna Museet gallery, and entry is free.
The centre is a lot smaller and has one or
two special exhibitions, and a permanent
exhibition where 3D models illustrate the
development of Swedish architecture.

STAY
- Ett Hem
You’ll discover Stockholm’s most exclusive
boutique hotel sitting a little off the city
centre, in among charming late 19th-century
townhouses in the quiet residential suburb
of Lärkstaden. British designer Ilse Crawford
has converted one of these residences into
a hotel, where you will immediately feel at
home. Guests are treated to an inviting
library and a lounge room with corner bar,
and breakfast is served in the orangerie –
definitely no soulless reception area here.
