CHECK AVAILABILITY
Owned by former ABBA band member Benny Andersson, Rival Hotel is filled with subtle tributes to the world-famous Swedish pop group.

Andersson re-opened Rival hotel in 2003, but its history goes back to the 1930s, when it was an inn and entertainment complex with a popular bar and a 700-seat theatre.

The hotel is an oasis in the heart of Stockholm overlooking the lush park Mariatorget.

Rooms have a Swedish modern minimalism along with quirky touches including ABBA wall murals.

All 99 rooms are equipped with a state-of-the-art entertainment system, 32” plasma screen and access to a library of DVD movies and music.

Plush red velvet sofas, movie and theatrical motifs and tastefully designed lighting give the Rival Hotel a cabaret meets old school funk vibe. Guests sleep on fine Egyptian linens and choose from a menu of pillows; a self-serve tea and coffee station with access to computers and printers.

Throw in a Swedish bistro, an Art Deco bar and a couple of Dancing Queens, and you’ve got a true hipster haven in the heart of Stockholm.
