This hotel stands head and shoulders above the rest largely because of the amazing staff. They went above and beyond for us and even let us have a later check out as my partner was sick. Comfortable surrounds with a nice buzz from the theatre. Easy to get everywhere by metro or scooter. Would thoroughly recommend. Only found out later that it’s owned by Benny Andersson from ABBA

Luxury survival at the Rival!
We had a late evening flight from Dublin to Stockholm, therefore we were not checking in until after 1am. We were a bit anxious about how easy it would be to check in at that time. The night reception person was called Paul and could not have been more helpful. He gave us some great tips of advice and we went to our room. The room was a great size and we loved the decor- a concert picture of ABBA was above the bed, we knew were in a safe place. We nipped out to a nearby bar for a nightcap and went to bed around 3am. Breakfast the next morning was a brilliant affair. A range of breads, meats, fruit and cheeses, along with tea, coffee, juices and traditional cooked breakfast items and cakes meant that we ate very well. My husband is vegan and there was a specialty menu that served avocado toast, along with the fresh tomatoes, he was most content. We stayed for 3 nights and have to say that it was a wonderful experience. We shall certainly return. Stockholm and Rival hotel were a blast!
