It is huge store that have everything, but it is impossible to find anything by yourself. Don't even try. You need to ask the staff and not even then, you may not find what you are looking for. I tried to buy a nice manicure set that, according to their homepage, the should have it. First I went to floor 3 (Men's accessories), but no, I have to go down to floor 0. Looking for Men's department in the "Beauty department" for 15 min, I gave up and ask the cashier. She was also confused why they didn't have it bu her computer said floor 2 (Home department). Walking around for 20 minutes without any luck, I have to ask the cashier. Yes, they have it in the "Books and paper department"?!

If you planning to do some focused shopping like a quick in and out, forget that. This store is designed by Kafka and it get worse if you trying to find things by yourself. Take your time and ask otherwise, your brain...

Åhléns City is the IKEA of chaos. It’s big, which means you can probably find a snow shovel, a cashmere scarf, and a scented candle shaped like a hedgehog, but not the one very normal thing you actually came for.

Walking in feels like being swallowed by a stylish octopus. There are a loads little micro-stores, each pretending the others don’t exist, all silently screaming for your attention with 30% off signs and desperate energy. It’s less "one-stop-shop" and more "every-stop-confusion."

Need help? So does everyone else. And they’re all in line for the same two escalators that seem to lead to the same floor you were just on.

The vibe? Imagine a Hunger Games arena where the tributes are just trying to find a phone charger.

Bonus point for the fact that you’ll get your daily steps in just trying to leave.

Would I go back? Only if I’m already lost in Stockholm and need shelter. Or if I suddenly decide I need a €90 throw pillow and a...
