We really enjoyed our stay. The room was a good size and the bathroom was nice. Breakfast is included and has a range of options. We ate at the Bistro on our first night and the food was really good. Staff are all really friendly. The hotel is easy to get to from the airport and a good base to explore the rest of Stockholm.

Our room was very comfortable and has the best ironing accessories of any place we stayed. The staff was very helpful in pointing out areas of interest. Location was close to public transport and the restaurants had a wonderful selection of food. There also was a free espresso machine with fresh fruit available. Highly recommend this hotel.

Best hotel of any I have stayed in in last three years. Cleanliness is impeccable and room las large with clean carpeting. Centrally located and near the Silja ferry dock. I was asked if I would be having breakfast in the morning I said I had an early flight and they said they would pack me something to take and the next morning they remembered! Never had such excellent service.

4/10

the hotel charges much to much for an outdated room with a bad smell, no blackout curtains, and peeling paint. They need to either lower the rates for the older rooms or do some major renovations. The lighting was annoying, with no overhead lighting and no central light switch. I have never spent so much time trying to turn on and off various lamps. I would have been ok with the subpar furnishings, but it is unacceptable to not have proper blackout curtains or blinds in a country where the sun is up most of the night in the summer. Sleep is a basic necessity. I was told to use an eye mask. Also, the hotel doesn’t have a bellhop or complimentary water so be prepared when you arrive if you choose to stay here

We had a great stay. Concert at the venue and stayed at the hotel. Had not visited before. It turned out to be an abosulutely memorable concert and stay. Friendly, clean, cozy, great selections of food and beverage. All in all a great place for a stay - especially combined with a concert. I will give Rival my highest recommondations.

Lovely supportive staff. Good breakfast. Very happy with room. Communal areas in floor 4 need work. Heavily stained carpet. Looks like there’s been a flood or big spills without the carpet being cleaned or changed.
