I can confidently say the staff at Hotel Birger Jarl were among the rudest I’ve encountered anywhere. The tone was consistently cold, dismissive, and unhelpful. It genuinely felt like they resented having guests. Hospitality seems to be an afterthought here — I would never stay again and strongly recommend others look elsewhere.

Excellent location in a quiet neighborhood in walking distance of Stockholm’s interesting attractions. The green metro line is nearby and easy to use. The breakfast and restaurant are among the best meals we’ve had in Scandinavia. The staff are patient and helpful with any questions or concerns. We will definitely stay here again when we come back to Stockholm.

The hotel is fantastic with one drawback. The toilet in our room was really small. You're sharing space between the shower, and where you stand in front of the sink. Everything else in the hotel was amazing. Everyone raves about how great the breakfast is, but in addition to that all of their food was delicious. We tried their dinner and dessert too and it was probably the best we had in all Stockholm. The room was spacious, and the lobby was always clean. I gave 4 stars because: 1. the bathroom was too small, 2. when we asked for a plug adapter for European plugs they had them for sale, but in the rest of our trips all of the hotels were happy to lend us one., and 3. the wait time at elevators was a bit too long. Other than those, I recommend the hotel for the outstanding food, helpful staff, and its cleanliness.
