City Hall is impressive from the outside, but a visit to the inner courtyard is well worth the trip. Very photo-worthy.

This is where the Nobel banquet and Nobel prize ceremony is held every year in December. All Nobel Prizes are given here except the peace prize that's handed out in Norway. There are nice surroundings, it's centrally located so it's quite easy to reach and you must not miss the view from the top of the tower.

Our guide was outstanding and the information imparted was throrough and fascinating. Take the guided tour. If you want to visit the tower, a separate tour, sign up before your City Hall tour so you can go right from one to the other. The tower tour is limited to thirty visitors at a time.

We visited City Hall, a massive fortress-like brick structure and our tour included the Blue Hall, where the annual Nobel Peace Prize Award banquet is held and the Golden Hall with its immense mosaic illustrating Swedish history. There are more than 18 million glass and gold mosaic pieces here.

We went for a conference reception. It is a beautiful building with lots of atmosphere. They hold the Nobel peace price dinner here, so it is very special. The heavy buffet food was beautifully presented and service as ever perfect. It was a wonderful opportunity to see a place of special historical significance.

A short walk from Central Station and possible, now that summer has arrived, to travel by boat to or from Drottningholm Castle. The only way to see the interior of the hall is on an official tour which lasts 45 minutes and is very good indeed. Lots of interesting information about the hall and Stockholm itself . The rooms are... More

there are 2 parts to this attraction: the tour and the tower. both are rich in their own ways. note that there are limited slots available for each, recommend getting a slot for both at the same time since it's likely that you will wait for one if you do it sequentially. wait time for each was about an hour.

We highly recommend that you take the City Hall tour in English. Well worth the money. The gold room was excellent and the Council Chambers was well worth seeing. It compares well with the Oslo City Hall

The gold shimmers from the top of the tower under the sun. Go in, get a tour, and see a room full of gold from the inside. It's even more impressive than the royal palace apartments in my opinion.
