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.

Michelin Guide "Modern hotel right in the heart of town."
Fodor's "At this Stockholm hot spot, the rooms are modern and fresh, with white walls, dark wood floors, and primary-color bedspreads." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The Scandic Anglais hotel is centrally located beside the Humlegården park, just a five-minute walk from Stureplan." Full review
DK Eyewitness "This modern hotel is situated in the heart of central Stockholm. Guests can relax in the hotel’s spa or the more energetic can take advantage of the free gym and bike hire."
Time Out "The location is terrific, with park views to one side and all of Östermalm's shops, clubs and restaurants nearby, but the hotel doesn't live up to its swanky setting." Full review
Star Service "It is livelier and a little larger than sibling Scandic Park Hotel, but it proves a much more intimate offering than the inconsistently maintained Scandic Sergel." Full review
BlackBook "Large and sleek lobby connected with a hyped lounge bar that fills up with a young and cheerful urban mix on weekends."
