Best Pet-Friendly Hotels Near Husbybadet
Travelling to Stockholm's Husbybadet with the family dog in tow narrows the hotel search fast, but Kista's cluster of business hotels includes a surprising number of pet-friendly properties, from straightforward chain hotels to the waterfront Radisson Blu overlooking the bay near the city centre. A pet-friendly stay near Husbybadet still puts the pool within a short metro ride, while giving the dog a comfortable base for the parts of the day the family spends without it. That split, kids at the pool, dog and one parent back at the hotel, tends to work better than trying to fold a dog into a full pool day.

A Dog-Friendly Base Near the Pool
A family bringing a dog to Stockholm has to balance the pool day, which the dog cannot join, with a hotel stay that actually welcomes pets rather than tolerating them as an afterthought. Kista's business hotel cluster near Husbybadet includes several properties that list pet-friendly as a standing policy rather than a case-by-case exception, which makes booking simpler and the stay less stressful once the dog is settled in the room.
AC Hotel Stockholm Ulriksdal and voco Stockholm - Kista both pair a pet-friendly policy with an indoor pool and hot tub of their own for the adults, so while the family dog cannot join the kids at Husbybadet, the hotel still offers its own low-key pool option for a parent who wants a quiet swim after a dog walk, and the pet policy at both properties is built into standard bookings rather than a special request. Both sit within a short taxi or metro ride of the office towers at the centre of Kista, keeping the whole trip's logistics simple.
Elite Palace Hotel, near Odenplan, combines a pet-friendly policy with a fuller stay, spa, hot tub and an English-style pub on site, which suits a family bringing a dog on a longer Stockholm visit that mixes a Husbybadet pool afternoon with wider city exploring, since the hotel itself becomes a comfortable base for evenings rather than just a place to sleep. Elite Hotel Carolina Tower and Scandic Continental, both also pet-friendly, offer a similar central-Stockholm footing for families who want the dog closer to the sights than to Husby. Either way, checking the specific hotel's own listing before booking is worth the extra couple of minutes.
Radisson Blu Waterfront Hotel sits right by the bay near Stockholm City Hall and welcomes pets, giving dog owners easy walking routes along the waterfront that a landlocked Kista hotel cannot match, useful for the mornings and evenings around a Husbybadet day trip when the dog needs proper exercise rather than a quick loop around a business park. Its central position also shortens the transfer into Gamla Stan and Djurgården for the days the trip is not built around the pool at all, which suits a family splitting the visit between sightseeing and a single Husbybadet afternoon.
Because most of these pet-friendly hotels sit in or near Kista, the metro connection to Husbybadet stays short regardless of which property you choose, so the decision usually comes down to how much extra comfort, a spa, a waterfront location, an indoor pool, you want for the hours the dog is back at the hotel while the rest of the family is at the pool. Edsviken Hotell, a simpler pet-friendly option near Sollentuna, suits families who just need a straightforward room and a kitchen rather than a full-service stay. Either way, checking the specific hotel's own listing before booking is worth the extra couple of minutes.
A traveler's takeWe brought our spaniel to Stockholm and booked voco Stockholm - Kista mainly because the pet policy was straightforward, no extra forms, just a note on the booking, and the indoor pool gave my partner something to do while I took the dog for a walk during the kids' Husbybadet afternoon. Being a short metro ride from the pool meant we were not juggling a long transfer with a dog in tow.
Pet-FriendlyThon Hotel Vasa
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe chose Thon Hotel Vasa to be closer to central Stockholm's sights, with a single Husbybadet day trip added in for the kids. The hot tub was a welcome way to rest tired legs after a lot of walking around the city, and free breakfast kept mornings simple. Being close to Panda gave us an easy dinner option most nights.
Pet-FriendlyLångholmen Hotel Stockholm
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe stayed at Långholmen Hotel Stockholm mainly for the novelty, a former prison turned relaxed hotel on a green island, and it gave our trip a story to tell beyond the usual business-hotel stay. Free breakfast and parking kept costs simple, and the walks around the island were a nice change of pace between busier sightseeing days. The transfer out to Husbybadet took a good while longer than we expected, so we treated the pool as one day trip among several rather than the main event.
Pet-FriendlyVilla Dahlia
Check availabilityWhy guests love itMy partner took our two kids out to Husbybadet for the afternoon while I stayed back at Villa Dahlia and used the spa, it felt like a genuine break rather than just a gym visit, and we swapped the next day so I got a turn at the pool too. Being a short walk from Rådmansgatan meant the evenings were easy as well, plenty of places to eat nearby. Free breakfast and parking kept costs predictable.
Pet-FriendlyElite Hotel Carolina Tower, Stockholm
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe stayed at Elite Hotel Carolina Tower in a suite, which gave us the extra space we needed with our two teenagers along. The sauna was a welcome evening option after a day of walking central Stockholm, and free breakfast made mornings simple. Being close to Stockholm Central Station made our onward train travel easy at the end of the trip. The Husbybadet day trip took a bit of planning given the distance, but the central position made up for it with everything else on offer.
Pet-FriendlyThe Winery Hotel, WorldHotels Crafted
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe picked The Winery Hotel for something a bit different, and the rooftop pool became a genuine highlight on the warmer afternoon of our stay, a nice contrast to the indoor-only pools at some other hotels nearby. The on-site winery gave us one proper adult evening once the kids were down, which felt like a real treat on a family trip built mostly around Husbybadet. Free breakfast was a welcome inclusion too.
Pet-FriendlyRadisson Blu Waterfront Hotel, Stockholm
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe splurged on Radisson Blu Waterfront Hotel for the setting, and waking up to the bay view near Stockholm City Hall made the whole trip feel special. Our dog got proper waterfront walks morning and evening, a real step up from the business-park surroundings of a typical Kista hotel. Public transport made the Husbybadet day trip straightforward despite the distance. It runs pricier than most other options on this list, but for a central, memorable Stockholm base with a pool day added on, it was worth it for us.
Pet-FriendlyGiò
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe chose Giò for its four-star comfort without the higher rates of some central Stockholm spa hotels, and the sauna became a nightly ritual after tiring Husbybadet pool days with the kids. Free breakfast covered our mornings well, and the on-site restaurant made a couple of our dinners easy. Parking was not included, which we had not expected, so factor that in if driving. The Solna setting felt a touch quieter than central Kista, which we appreciated by the end of a busy family trip.
Pet-FriendlyEdsviken Hotell
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe chose Edsviken Hotell for the in-room kitchen, useful for a longer stay with young kids who do not always want a restaurant dinner. The setting felt calmer than the busier parts of Kista, and being close to Al Capriccio meant we had a backup for nights we did not want to cook. Our dog settled in without any issues under the pet-friendly policy. It is a simple hotel without the extras of a bigger chain, but for a self-catering family base near Husbybadet it worked well for us.
Pet-FriendlyQuality Hotel Strawberry Arena
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe booked a suite at Quality Hotel Strawberry Arena for the extra space with three kids in tow, and it made a real difference over a standard double room. Free breakfast was solid, and having two restaurants on site meant we did not need to plan every dinner out after a Husbybadet pool day. The pet-friendly policy meant our dog was welcome without any fuss. It sits a bit further from the most central Kista hotels, but the extra room space was worth that trade-off for our family.
Pet-FriendlyScandic Continental
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe picked Scandic Continental for the location right by T-Centralen, which made it simple to flip between central Stockholm sightseeing one day and a Husbybadet pool trip the next without complicated transfers. The rooftop bar was a highlight in the evenings, and having the dog along was never an issue under the pet-friendly policy. Parking was not included, so we relied on public transport the whole stay, which worked out fine given how central the hotel is. For flexible day planning, this location is hard to beat.
Pet-Friendlyvoco Stockholm - Kista by IHG
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe used voco Stockholm - Kista as our base and appreciated having an indoor pool and hot tub of our own for the evenings after a full day out at Husbybadet with the kids. The airport shuttle made the arrival easy since we had not rented a car, and being two minutes from Torshamnsgatan kept dinner options simple. It sits at a higher price point than some of the plainer Kista hotels, but between the spa access and the central position, it felt worth the difference for our family.
Pet-FriendlyComfort Hotel Kista
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe stayed at Comfort Hotel Kista for three nights and the combination of free breakfast, free parking and a pet-friendly policy made it an easy choice with our dog in tow. Being one minute from Jan Stenbecks torg meant dinner options were always close by, even after a long Husbybadet afternoon with tired kids. The rooms were simple but comfortable enough for what we needed. It is not a hotel with its own pool or spa, but as a practical, well-priced base it worked well for our trip.
Pet-FriendlyElite Palace Hotel, Stockholm
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe based ourselves at Elite Palace Hotel for a trip that mixed central Stockholm sightseeing with one Husbybadet pool day, and the spa and hot tub gave us a proper evening wind-down after a lot of walking. The free breakfast and parking helped keep costs predictable. The transfer out to Husbybadet took a bit longer than we expected compared with staying directly in Kista, so plan around that if the pool is your main focus.
Pet-FriendlyScandic Victoria Tower
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe treated ourselves to Scandic Victoria Tower for the rooftop bar as much as anything, and it made for a nice change of pace after tiring pool days at Husbybadet with the kids. The free breakfast was solid, and being close to Kistagången kept our evening dinner options simple. Parking was not included, which surprised us a little compared with other Kista hotels we had considered, so budget for that separately. Still, the rooftop view in the evening made the stay feel like more than just a practical base.
Pet-FriendlyInfra City
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe liked Infra City for the indoor pool as much as anything, it gave the kids a second pool option on the evening after a full Husbybadet day. The atrium restaurant was a genuine surprise, more memorable than a standard hotel dining room, and made one dinner feel like part of the trip rather than just a meal. Being a shorter drive from the airport suited our early flight home too.
Pet-FriendlyScandic Kista
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe stayed at Scandic Kista with our two kids and the included breakfast saved our mornings before the short metro ride out to Husby for a pool session, no scrambling for an open cafe at seven in the morning. Being a few minutes from Jan Stenbecks torg also meant an easy walk back for lunch once the kids were pool-tired and ready for a nap. Having the dog along was never a problem, and the terrace became our favourite spot for an evening coffee once everyone had settled down.
Pet-FriendlyWelcome Hotel, Spa & Konferens
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe stayed at Welcome Hotel, Spa & Konferens partly for the outdoor pool, which gave the kids a second swimming option on the warmer afternoon of our trip, separate from the Husbybadet visit itself. The spa and hot tub were a nice bonus for us as parents in the evenings. Free breakfast and parking kept the budget simple. The transfer to Husbybadet took longer than we expected given the hotel's position, so plan for that, but having our own pool on site made up for it.
Pet-FriendlyAC Hotel Stockholm Ulriksdal
Check availabilityWhy guests love itMy partner took the kids out to Husbybadet while I stayed back and used the spa here, and it genuinely felt like a proper break rather than just a gym session. The indoor pool and hot tub were a nice bonus outside spa hours, and being one minute from Ulriksdal station made getting around simple. We swapped the next day so I got my turn at the slides too.
Pet-FriendlyAiden by Best Western Stockholm Kista
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe liked Aiden for its style, it felt a step up from the plain business hotels nearby without costing a fortune, and the free breakfast meant one less thing to plan each morning before heading to Husbybadet. The sauna was a nice touch in the evenings once the kids were in bed. Rooms were on the smaller side for our family of four, so it worked better as a base for shorter stays than a full week. Being close to Jan Stenbecks torg made finding dinner easy every night.
Pet-FriendlyGood Morning Kista
Check availabilityWhy guests love itWe picked Good Morning Kista mainly for the free parking and breakfast, and both delivered exactly what we needed for a two-night Husbybadet trip. The rooms were simple but clean, and the short walk to Kistahöjden gave us an easy dinner option once the kids were worn out from the pool. The metro connection out to Husby took the guesswork out of getting to the slides each morning, and having the dog along was never an issue.
Local tips
- 1Confirm any pet fee or weight limit directly with the hotel before booking, policies vary even among properties listed as pet-friendly.
- 2Book a ground-floor or easily accessible room if possible, useful for quick dog walks between pool trips and city sightseeing.
- 3Pack your dog's usual bedding and food, Stockholm pet shops are easy to find but familiar items reduce stress on a long trip.
- 4Plan Husbybadet visits around dog walks rather than leaving the dog alone for a full day, most hotel rooms are not set up for that.
- 5If your hotel has its own pool or hot tub, check the pet policy still applies there separately from the room booking itself.
- 6Choose a waterfront or park-adjacent pet-friendly hotel if your dog needs longer walks than a business district like Kista can offer.
