Scandic Victoria Tower
Rooftop bar and free breakfast above Kista
About this hotel
Scandic Victoria Tower brings a rooftop bar and bright restaurant into the Kista hotel mix, a more elevated, polished option than the district's plainer business blocks, with free breakfast and Wi-Fi included as standard. It sits two minutes' walk from Kistagången and a minute from Upper East for dinner, with a fitness centre, business centre and full-service laundry rounding out the practical extras. The pet-friendly policy welcomes the family dog, and the rooftop bar gives parents a proper evening view over the district once the kids are settled after a Husbybadet pool day. Parking is available but not free, worth factoring in if arriving by car. The tower setting and rooftop bar mark this out from the more straightforward Kista hotels nearby, useful for a family who wants the stay itself to feel a little more special.

Our take
Scandic Victoria Tower suits families who want a touch of style, a rooftop bar and bright restaurant, alongside the usual Kista essentials of free breakfast and a central position. Parking costs extra here unlike some neighbouring hotels, worth weighing if driving, but the rooftop setting makes it a memorable choice for an evening after Husbybadet.
- ✓Reserve a rooftop bar table in advance during busier evenings, it is a popular spot with both guests and locals.
- ✓Budget for parking separately, it is available but not included in the room rate at this property.
- ✓Book early if travelling with a dog and wanting a specific room type, given the standard pet-friendly policy.

Why 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.
