DK Eyewitness
"Housed in three 18th-century buildings and a historic steamship (for the conference facilities) anchored nearby in the harbour, the Reisen is a lively location."
Rough Guide
"One of Stockholm’s classic hotels, dating back to the eighteenth century. Rooms are decked out with handsome wood panelling and all have bathtubs (not the norm in Sweden)."
Time Out
"Now run by the First Hotel chain, it fully exploits its waterside location, with each of the 144 handsomely decorated rooms enjoying some sort of water view." Full review
