Left this tower within 30 minutes because there really isn't much things to do? But they do have a very cosy bar for drinks while you enjoy your view ~~~ More

Quick elevator and not so expensive to get up and see Stockholm from above. Nice and helpful staff if you need. You can also eat and drink in the tower, or just have a swedish fika, which is tea/coffee and a sandwich or pastries. There is also a souvenir shop where you find a lot of "krimskrams", I.e.gewgaws, for family... More

If you want views over Stockholm for a decent price I'd recommend this place. With a cafe too it makes a nice place to relax and sit back for a bit. A bus stops right outside from the city centre. More

If you have visitors to stay and want to give them an idea of Stockholm from above then this place is great. Easy to get to by car, nice big car park, ramp access into the building and compact viewing area. All make for an easy experience for those who cannot walk so well. It is not the best looking...

Living in Stockholm, I can assure you that you'll find much better views of the city in other places. This tower is situated in a rather dull area and the city is farther than one thinks. I remember being a visitor in Stockholm many, many years ago, I thought the entrance fee to the Kaknäs Tower was rather expensive and... More

With food that's a little more fancy than the average restaurant's food in Stockholm. Really enjoyed both times I've been here. Will be going again. More

Great place and excellent view from here. The restaurant is great and worth visiting. The best thing with Kaknas Tower is that it is situated in a very nice environment which you could visit at the same time. One small advice, if you easily get sea sick then you should avoid Kaknas tower when the weather is windy becuase it... More

Yes, 45kr isn't that much for an observation tower, but really this isn't the best place to get the "eye in the sky" feel for Stockholm. That, in my opinion, is Restaurang Himlen, which is on the penthouse level of Skrapan in Södermalm. It's much nicer, but you'll need to shell out for drinks (worth it, even at Stockholm prices)....
