If you like ikea furniture, this is the place to be. But make sure that you are traveling light because most rooms have no drawers!!!!! No bath tub either. Breakfast is good and there is free wifi in room and public area. Several English channels and no HBO. Pack your toothbrush/paste and slippers, no such things in European hotels. Short... More

I have now stayed here twice - upon the recommendation of a colleague who lives in Stockholm. Stockholm is not a cheap city. It's a great city but not cheap. Hotel Birger Jarl in my experience offers a really good option. The rooms I have had both times are not massive, but they are well designed, comfortable and with decent... More

I stayed here for 1 night on a business trip. The prices are high in Scandinavia and this hotel probably ranks as a Campanile/Ibis level in other countries. The room I had was small and the bathroom was cramped with only a shower that was a wet room style so the whole floor became flooded. The towels were thin. The... More

I travel on business every week for the last three years and this was by far the worst hotel I stayed at. Online pictures look great - but be careful with the room you book! Many rooms are what they call "cabin" - WITHOUT windows and tiny! Who builds hotel rooms without windows?? My room got booked through work travel... More

Stayed at Birger Jarl, when visiting Stockholm for business. The hotel looks much better on the website than live. Nice reception area, but worn out hallway. The room (single room) was OK at the tops furniture nice but very crammed and non personal. All in all adequate for a one night stay but not for a longer stay.

I stayed at the Birger Jarl for one night and will gladly recommend the hotel for other to use. The location is a little off, but still within walking distance to the center and the sub is running close to the hotel. Fine rooms, good service and pleasant environment.

Stayed here and must say that the hotel was fantastic. Firstly it's not central. It's about a 2km walk from the Central Station. If its a nice day you can walk it in 30 minutes but if not then a cab ride costs about 100 SEK (ten pounds/Euros) Hotel is in a good location with nice bars and resturants around.... More

I booked this hotel in "booking" but my flight was cancelled the day of the visit due to the european strike of Lufthansa. I called "booking" and they called the hotel to ask for cancellation due to the special situation, they even proposed to change the date of the visit since I will go anyway to Stockholm in the next...

Very responsive personal at reception – the proposed all the options, and advised a good place for dinner. Free Internet connection, a coffee set, and a personal safe – what else would you need? Ah.. an iron! I missed that little thing in the room. The place is quiet event though it’s a very center of the city. Breakfast was... More
