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

DK Eyewitness "Built in 1350 and filled with nautical antiques, this is the narrowest hotel in Stockholm as well as being a fascinating museum."
Rough Guide "Sister hotel to the Lady Hamilton, this is the narrowest hotel in Sweden at just 5m wide and stuffed full of naval antiques and curiosities including an original letter from Nelson to Lady Hamilton."
Time Out "Located right on Gamla Stan's tourist strip, this tall, 17th-century building with its glass-and-brass entrance is pretty ship-shape itself." Full review
Star Service "On the busiest shop-lined, tourist-clogged street in Gamla Stan (Old Town), this very narrow four-story house shares management with the nearby Lady Hamilton Hotel and notably superior Victory Hotel." Full review
