Friendly staff. Great location

Excellent hotel, great service.

From the warm welcome to the warm goodbye, the staff at this hotel are some of the friendliest I've ever encountered. Nothing was too much trouble. Their knowledge of Stockholm is, of course, excellent but the enthusiasm with which they share it is infectious. Our room had lovely amenities, the only slight complaint was it could have been a degree or two warmer, as the temperature outside dropped while there but the bed was very comfortable and warm. If I ever return to Stockholm, I would stay here again, no question. And finally, it is situated a hop away from the metro, an easy walk away from the ferry and on the doorstep to the old town, so its location makes it a winner. Recommended.

Friendly, enthusiastic, helpful reception staff. Amazing breakfast with so many options. Love the location - it's in a quieter part of town but easy to access other parts of the city. We had a wonderful stay. Thank you!

We have had an excellent stay here at Hotel Rival. The room is very comfortable, and there are wonderful amenities. I especially like robes and slippers! The breakfast is also top notch with delicious options and a menu to order from. But what sets Hotel Rival apart from others is the exceptional, friendly, knowledgeable staff. People at the front desk, directed us where to go and how to get there, and let us work on our Swedish with them. The people at breakfast were so kind and warm. One woman even showed us how her grandmother served Swedish pancakes. Even the police officer doing security last weekend for a concert was friendly. This encouraged us to stay an extra night because the people here have made the hotel feel like a home away from home. Thanks for making this stay so special.

All was well. Thanks!

I feel quite fortunate to have booked our stay at Hotel Rival. The room was comfortable and very clean. The view of the park across the street was very nice. A short and pleasant walk to Old Town. The staff were amazing. Friendly and helpful. A Relaxing environment. We enjoyed the breakfast and coffee bar on the 4th floor. Finally , a shout out to Joel , thank you for the warm welcome to the hotel, city and country.

The staff was excellent: Joel, Cecelia, and the room Maid.

We enjoyed our stay at Hotel Rival. It is conveniently located with the train station only a 5 minute walk from the hotel which then takes you to the City Center. it is about a 15 minute walk to the Old Town where there is a variety of restaurants and stores. There is a lovely park in front and it was wonderful to sit there and enjoy the Swedish tradition of Fika- drinking our coffee and having our pastry after a long day of exploring Stockholm. All the staff were friendly and very helpful- they truly want you to enjoy your time in their city. Overall, we highly recommend this hotel!

Great staff, including concierge

Excellent staff and hotel.

Fantastic boutique hotel within walking distance to lots of shopping and restaurants and bars. Close to Gamla Stan too!

The hotel was wonderful. The staff were very helpful and nice.

This hotel was outstanding. Important to note that it is non smoking and has great air conditioning. There is a subway stop five minutes from the hotel. The location is great. The bed was wonderful and they had a pillow menu. The front desk crew could not have been more helpful. They arranged a taxi to the airport for us. Since they knew we were leaving before breakfast they prepared ham sandwiches, oranges, and orange juice to eat in the cab on the way to the airport.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Rival! Michele and Sveda were so helpful and lovely. We stayed in the penthouse suite which had beautiful views of the park snd surrounding area and was gorgeous! The bed was very comfortable and the breakfast was remarkable. Can’t say enough about how much we loved this place. Loved the history as a theater and the artwork. Highly recommend for a great stay in Stockholm!!

Lovely spacious room with balcony and view into park. Very clean and great amenities.

Wonderful hotel with comfortable beds and an excellent breakfast and bar. We loved the streets nearby with outdoor dining options. Still close to the old town and tourist hot spots - but outside proper tourist area.

Room was large and clean, very quiet, needed decaf coffee in lounge 4th floor and Ice
