The Riddarholmen Church

The Riddarholmen Church is Stockholm's only remaining medieval abbey, built in the late 1200s. The church is the last resting place of the Swedish monarchs and aristocracy, including Gustav II Adolf, Karl XII, Gustav V and their consorts.

It is one of the oldest buildings in Stockholm and part of the building is dating to the late 13th century, when it was built as a greyfriars monastery. After the Protestant Reformation, the monastery was closed and the building transformed into a Protestant church.

A spire designed by Willem Boy was added during the reign of John II, but it was destroyed by a strike of lightning on July 28, 1835 after which it was replaced with the present cast iron spire.

The award-winning Conrad Maldives Rangali Island resort is set on two private islands among miles of idyllic white-sand beach and unspoilt reef. The incredible quality of this resort is unique in every way. This is a life time experience and a place you will never forget. This is the most impressive resort we have produced and every guest we met at the resort agreed that this was their best experience ever. An obvious choice for 360CityGuide.  

You arrive in style in a seaplane over the lagoon and that is an experience in itself. The resort has plenty of restaurants but the all-glass undersea restaurant Ithaa is truly remarkable.

For an airport hotel the Hilton Madrid Airport hotel is quite unique with a fabulous design and architecture. The location is just minutes from Madrid Barajas International Airport, the IFEMA exhibition center and the shuttle bus service will take you there in minutes.

This is clearly the finest airport hotel we have produced and it is a pleasure to feature and recommend on 360CityGuide. If you visit in summer time make sure not to miss the roof top pool. 

The Molino Stucky Hilton Venice is the former home of the Molino Stucky Flour Mill. Abandoned for 50 years this is now renovated into a fantastic hotel with large convention capacity.

The unique history, the contemporary design and spectacular location make this one of the finest hotels we have produced and an obvious property to feature on 360CityGuide.
The boat taxi from the airport is the perfect way to arrive and well worth the fare.
