The stay at Birger Jarl Hotel?
Hotel Birger Jarl was a well-needed stay out of our loud and crowded city of New York. Although Birger Jarl is located in Stockholm's center city, the neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. Perfect for families and relaxation!
Maneuvering around the center city is easy and convenient for sightseeing as well as traveling to other areas in Stockholm. A metro station is in walking distance and the hotel staff can provide a free transit map and informatively guide you to your desired destination.
Arriving at Hotel Birger Jarl, we were greeted with kindness and a pleasant welcoming card in our room.
I was in contact with the host prior to our arrival to tell him that we were traveling with a toddler, and we were accommodated with an infant crib waiting for our daughter in our room. The rooms were very spacious for our family of 3, which gave us that stretching room.
Our private guest room was closed off from our living room which gave us personal space. The rooms and bathrooms were very clean. In our guest room, we were offered free toiletries, bathrobes, a coffee maker, a refrigerator, and a music player.
The views of center city Stockholm were stunning. No matter what time of day, we would window watch from above and enjoy the snowfall. It's definitely beautiful scenery to see, and we would return any day to watch this quiet city from above.
