Michelin Guide "Characterful 17C house in a pleasant Old Town setting. Cosy bedrooms are classically styled, well-maintained and equipped with good modern facilities; bathrooms are compact but smart."
DK Eyewitness "Charming winding streets lead to the doorstep of this cosy establishment. Located close to the Royal Palace, portraits of Swedish royalty dating from the 1650s adorn the walls of every room."
Rough Guide "Wonderfully situated in an elegant medieval building in Gamla Stan, with stylish yet old-fashioned rooms in 1700s Swedish design."
Time Out "Just down the street from the Lord Nelson, this 51-room hotel in a 17th-century building is steps from the waterfront, but none of the rooms has a view." Full review
Lonely Planet "If you fancy classic Swedish interiors, rush to Rica, where the smallish rooms feature everything from powder-blue wallpaper and dainty furniture to vintage chandeliers." Full review
Star Service "Anyone familiar with this chain will pinch themselves as they enter the lobby." Full review

Travelers are advised to ask for a large room, since the small Standard rooms measure a mere 200 sq ft.

Michelin Guide "Located just outside the city centre in Djurgarden Park, close to the Vasa Museum; a popular hotel for hosting conferences and events."

DK Eyewitness "A beautifully restored traditional hotel dating from 1765 and adjoining Skansen the Hasselbacken is close to the city centre, but surrounded by woodland in a peaceful location."
Time Out "Flanked by the trees of Stockholm's greenest island, its small garden full of peonies, the Hasselbacken's setting is delightful." Full review
