Course organisation¶
-
Location: KTH, Lindstedtsvägen 24, 114 28 Stockholm, Sweden, room 522 "Fantum".
The building is just a 5 minute walk from a metro station with excellent connections to the central station (red metro line). See also the SL web site for more information on public transportation in Stockholm.
-
Hotel suggestions for participants from outside Stockholm:
-
Elite Hotel Arcadia is close to the entrance of the KTH campus and the metro station serving KTH.
-
Hotels in the neighbourhood of the central station are also a good choice as there is a fast and high frequency metro connection to the KTH campus from there and as it is a good place to find restaurants or head into old town at night.
The Scandic Continental Hotel even sits right on top of the main metro station where you can jump on any line.
-
Travel¶
-
Hotel options: The various hotels near the central station would be a good choice for travellers. The Odenplan area could be an alternative as there is a frequent bus service to the KTH campus. Elite Hotel Arcadia is right on the edge of the KTH campus and hence also a possible choice.
-
Travel from the airport: There are 4 ways to get to central stockholm from the airport:
-
Taxi - Expensive, go to the labeled taxi ranks in the airport. There is a fixed price to the city, which should be displayed on the taxi and will be different for different companies
-
Arlanda Express - Moderately expensive, very fast direct train to stockholm central station. There are two train stations for the Arlanda Express at the airport, one for terminal 2, 3 and 4 (Arlanda Sodra) and one for terminal 5 (Arlanda Norra).
-
Commuter train - From Sky City in Arlanda you can get the normal trains. You need to pay 147 SEK (toll to use the tunnel under Arlanda) at the ticket barriers plus a normal SL ticket. This is a different train station as those for the Arlanda Express!
-
Airport bus - cheapest option, but takes longest. Central bus station is right next to central station.

Using public transportation in Stockholm
Probably simplest if you just get the SL (Stockholm Localtrafik) app on a smartphone, will give you a QR code that you can use at ticket barriers. Tickets can be bought using a credit card in the app. Physical cards are also available, but cost 50 SEK for the card, plus extra for the tickets you put on it.
Credit cards can also be used with contactless pay as you go to buy a single.Single tickets are fairly expensive. If you plan to use public transportation not only to come and go to the venue, but also at night to travel in Stockholm, a travelcard, which you can get in the app, may be a better option.
Be careful when using the route planner in the app to travel to the course venue. If you search for KTH, several options will be offered to you, some of those in entirely different parts of the city. Search for "Tekniska högskolan", the metro station, or "Lindstedtsvägen (Stockholm)". But do NOT take "KTH - Royal Intitute of Technology (Södertälje)" as this will take you to a different place, even outside Stockholm
