Property was in a good area, walking distance to a lot of things. Staff were super friendly and helpful. We forgot an adapter and they let us borrow one from the front desk free of charge. The breakfast was great with a lot of options. Only negative thing was the shower design, there is no lip for the shower so the water goes everywhere on the floor in the bathroom. Overall wonderful stay.

Breakfast staff let hotel down.

First of all the good points. The hotel was of a good standard, the room high quality (and I was asked at check in whether I preferred a room with a bath or a shower). The check out was quick and they stored my luggage for later collection quickly and efficiently. But, they really messed up over breakfast - the breakfast area was busy when I came downstairs but there were places at a bar table area. However the staff member checking people in as they came down recommended I went to an overspill room downstairs, and assured me there was a full choice of items. I should have realised as soon as I got down there that this was very much second best compared to the main breakfast area, plain seating in a box like room which was almost empty, coffee from a thermos not freshly made, no toaster for the bread and when I checked on my way out there were twice as many hot food items available in the main breakfast area - this really let down what was looking like a nice hotel, but worst was the fact I had been misled by the staff member - that is unacceptable and why the rating is dropped two stars at to what it would have been otherwise.

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.
