Michelin Guide "An unassuming facade belies its chic interior."
Concierge "The staff makes a concerted effort to keep you happy, and recent bathroom upgrades were a good idea."
Lonely Planet "Currently, standard rooms are on the small and tired side, with a vague ‘70s vibe, but the designer rooms, each put together by a different Swedish designer, are an immersive experience." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Although it’s named after the man who founded Stockholm in the 13th century, the Hotel Birger Jarl is all about modern design." Full review
Fodor's "This stylish hotel welcomes guests to an airy lobby with a classic Scandinavian feel." Full review
Jetsetter "A stylish stay in a central, well-connected location near Stockholm Observatory - includes breakfast." Full review
Time Out "Fans of genuine retro should check themselves into the Retro Room, which looks just as it did in 1974, having accidentally been overlooked during the hotel's renovation." Full review
Frommer's "Though the Birger Jarl isn't as hot as it was when it launched in 2000, it's still the best place to stay in downtown Stockholm if you're a sucker for Scandinavian design." Full review

For a flashback experience request room #247, a 1974 holdover accidentally overlooked during the 2000 makeover.

Travel + Leisure "The Icebar Nordic Sea Hotel is centrally located; it's within walking distance to the Arlanda Express train and Central Station and a short drive to the airport." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The staff at the Nordic Sea Hotel are attentive and happy to provide information on the best places to visit. All rooms are decorated individually in Scandinavian style."
Rough Guide "The focus here is on bold designs and colours – maritime blues and greens predominate."

Be sure to ask to see your room on check-in since some are tiny and only have views of the train station.
Time Out "A vast aquarium dominates the lobby and a window opens on to the ultra-chilly Icebar, where the drinks are served up in sub-zero conditions." Full review
Star Service "Across the street from its well-illuminated sibling Nordic Light, this property sits next to the central train station...and the World Trade Center." Full review
Frommer's "There's nothing in Scandinavia quite like this hotel, which was voted "The World's Sexiest Hotel" by Elle magazine." Full review
Lonely Planet "This sister hotel to the Nordic Light has small but well-designed rooms, great service and an enormous breakfast buffet." Full review
