Warm welcome as always. Great breakfast buffet and menu.

Everything was Perfect

The staff went beyond our expectations, what a great service! our luggage was lost by Air France and they followed up every day, sometimes twice a day until it was delivered, Also I forgot my watch after check out and they mailed it to me free of charge to my next Hotel. The room was comfortable and well-decorated. The breakfast buffet is great and includes items like gluten-free bread :) The location is also important to mention since we were able to walk to most of our destinations

The Hotel Rival is a very fun hotel in an excellent part of Stockholm. very close to the metro line but easy to walk into the old part of town as well, and is very close to great restaurants and nightlife. The hotel itself has great sized rooms well decorated, and even though there is a theatre connected to the hotel you couldn't hear it at all! The bar was fantastic for a late night drink, and the breakfast options were some of the best I've ever had

Nothing could have gone better this time but the very first time we stayed the receptionist - a man - was clearly having a bad day. He wasn't exactly rude but he gave the feeling that Rival was not what he had expected. Receptionists provide a firs impression so how you are received by them is really important.

The breakfast was magnificent - my husband and I are breakfast connoisseurs. There was no crowding, no rush, the staff were very attentive - also to our ten year old grandson for whom this was a treat he had looked forward to since two earlier visits

The staff in the bar was a bit bored and not very upservenat. Tried to get their attention a few times (another glass of wine and later the bill) but eventually had to walk to them to get their attention. It was at tuesday evening so 2 staff on and not very busy. Otherwise was food and drinks good, although the Skagen smörgås (big) was very small! so wonder how small a small version would be ..

It's a great hotel and not super expensive - big clean rooms and great bar (with a few swedish celebs!) Also fantastic hats which one can buy in receptions - always surprisingly cold in Stockholm. Good location - the more bohemian/arty part but actually very up market. Charming reception staff which makes you feel special and important.

Staff and location!!!

The most accommodating and friendly hotel I have ever been. My father was sick and had to stay over in Stockholm a little longer before his flight and the hotel provided all the necessary support they can get to make my father's experience wonderful. Highly recommended!

The wifi signal was on the weak side.

Surrounding a lovely old theatre, with several in house options for dining and drinks. The included breakfast was exceptional. Front desk staff were welcoming and helpful.

*You might experience a bit of noise from the bars/restaurants as the place seems to be very well visited and there is a theater-like venue next to the bar... *The Hotel offers a vallet garage service but at an outragious price. However, we did find an open parking-lot where you could park for more than 24 hrs. and at a rate of SEK 160 per day/night. It was next to the München Bryggeri on the Söder Mälarstrand a 14 minutes stroll from the hotel (via a small stairway). Worked fine for us!

*The location is an easy 15 min. walk into the center - little less to the Metro Station. *The room (a standard one) small but absolutely functional and well fitted. The layout different and awesome. *Nice restaurants and bars with excellent food. *The breakfast was truly great with a huge buffet and eggs/hot dishes cooked to your liking on the spot. *The service was excellent - especially the staff in the reception. *The ambiance of the entire place is awesome. The design art nouveau. *We enjoyed especially being able to sit outdoors to dine and wine.

It’s clean, quirky and a happy place to be. The restaurant is great for dinner and even better for breakfast (even with a baby in tow). Great location with ease of transport. Only place to stay in Stockhol!

Stairs to our room did not have a railing, which made it difficult for my mother to climb (set of 3 stairs on floor 2)

Beautiful hotel! 24 hr coffee and really nice breakfast.

The staff were exceptionally welcoming and provided great information to make the best use of our time in Stockholm. The decor was funky, differing from the usual motel feeling.

The hotel at the whole is excellent. The stuff is helpful and extremely nice

Heated bathroom floor was a bit of a waste. Would have rated more highly if the hotel had more thought about the environment.

Comfortable, stylish and quiet.
