"An unassuming facade belies its chic interior."
"The staff makes a concerted effort to keep you happy, and recent bathroom upgrades were a good idea."
"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
"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
"This stylish hotel welcomes guests to an airy lobby with a classic Scandinavian feel." Full review
"A stylish stay in a central, well-connected location near Stockholm Observatory - includes breakfast." Full review
"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
"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.
