Wonderful,
Score from 339 reviews
“ The coffee machine on the fourth floor was a nice touch. I used the printer to print my boarding pass which was very convenient. Free fast WiFi was very helpful. I liked the fact that you could open the windows for fresh air. ”

The whole experience was great. The staff was always friendly and efficient, the rooms were clean and well designed. The breakfast buffet was excellent, always with 1st class ingredients. On the last day, the hotel let us do a late checkout, which was very handy, being with a small baby. Absolutely nothing wrong. If I have to say something, the mattress was a bit too soft for our liking, but this is just a matter of taste.

My second time in rival and the atmosphere is becoming more vibrant. There is so much happening in and around the hotel with it's theatre, the beautiful square in front of the hotel, the lively neighbourhood. Even the bakkery is a hit with the public. The rooms are trendy, as is all of the hotel. As you would expect of a hotel of this price categ. It has free wifi and try the free coffemachine it's the best possible coffee. Breakfast is brilliant and you can have a good and fairly priced meal at the restaurants. Compliments for the staff, they are excellent, helpfull and make you feel at home at once.

Fantastic breakfast and great restaurant. Lively and trendy cocktail bar. rooms not well soundproofed. (deluxe not the basic room) We were kept awake by a constantly crying baby in the adjacent room and woken very early in the morning. Staff sympathetic but couldn't move us. Rather spoilt a romantic weekend

Nice atmosphere in public areas. Interesting decor. Good breakfast, Feels individual and not part of a chain. Attractive square opposite hotel. Standard rooms are too small and much smaller than standard rooms at a main competitor (Radisson Blue Waterfront).

Very friendly staff, and even if I booked one of the smallest room of the hotel, it was great, and give the feeling to be 'at home' No fitness club in the hotel, however, you can have access to the club next door with extra fee (affordable)

Great location, in a friendly neighbourhood. The room was perfectly quiet, there was no noise from outside or from other rooms, great for a good night's sleep. I liked the collection of cd's and the fact that there was a collection of dvd's available. Also, the 'pillow menu' was a special feature. Lovely breakfast with a Swedish touch. The price on weeknights is really too high...

Fantastic hotel with great bar/cafe and friendly staff. Superb location in Sodermalm - minutes from the SoFo area with it's great shops, bars and restaurants, and only 10 minutes walk to the Old Town. Would most definitely recommend the hotel. The breakfast buffet was a bit of a dissapointment and would have liked to have seen some cinnamon rolls!
