Property Amenities
Rica Hotel Kungsgatan, the best shopping Hotel in Stockholm, has its own elevator right down to the stores. The Hotel is part of the PUB classic department store on Hötorget city square. Its location, at the corner of two prime shopping streets, Kungsgatan and Drottninggatan, offers you a varied, high-end selection of shopping, restaurants and entertainment, basically just round the corner. Our extensive breakfast buffet, which is included in your room rate, offers huge freedom of choice to compose your own breakfast menu, whether you prioritize a healthy start to your day or want a little luxury.
The Hotel has its own entrance on Kungsgatan 47. The elevator goes to the reception and lobby on the fourth floor. If you're arriving by air, we recommend the Arlanda Express rail-link to Stockholm Central station. If you're coming by coach or train to Centralen/Cityterminalen, take a left on Vasagatan then right onto Kungsgatan towards Stureplan. The Hotel is some 400 m up on your right, just before Hötorget. If you're coming by car, follow the signs to Hötorget/Konserthuset and you can park in Hötorgsgaraget underground car park. You drive in from Sveavägen, the entrance is behind Konserthuset Concert Hall, and pedestrian access is onto Sergelgatan. There's an entrance to Hötorget subway station on the other side of Hötorget. You can catch local buses on Kungsgatan, by Hötorget, just outside the Hotel, there's also a taxi rank. We recommend Taxi Stockholm environmental taxis, which you can book from reception.
Rooms
Rooms vary in size, and most have been recently renovated, from compact, value-for-money budget accommodation (some are windowless, and can be made really dark and cozy for a good night’s sleep) to large, deluxe rooms (mini-suites), with great views over Hötorget market or all the life of Drottninggatan shopping street. All rooms are furnished in a contemporary Scandinavian style, complete with cozy Jensen-brand beds for an excellent hotel experience right in the heart of Stockholm. The Hotel has a four-star rating, Svanen environmental certification, is fully non-smoking and only some 500 m from the Stockholm Central/Arlanda Express terminal.
Room Amenities
Dining
There’s a lobby bar and lounge next to reception, when you where you can relax with a coffee, glass of wine or cool beer with a snack and take in the view over Hötorget square. There is also a bar menu available. Publik Restaurant & Bar, popular with hungry and thirsty shoppers, is on the third floor of PUB department store, and is accessible by elevator directly from the Hotel. Kungshallen food court, with 15 restaurants and 800 covers under one roof, is opposite the Hotel. Great dining experiences await you at the array of small restaurants surrounding the Hotel and down towards Stureplan. Many of them are really popular, so we recommend you book a table a few days in advance. Don't hesitate to contact Hotel reception during your stay—they’ll be happy to suggest their favorite restaurants and will help you book a table.
Entertainment
As well as restaurants, there’s great entertainment on your doorstep, along Kungsgatan and down towards Stureplan, just five minutes' walk away. There’s plenty of shopping in the same building as the Hotel (including trendy interior design store R.O.O.M. on PUB.03), as well as right outside the Hotel, along Drottninggatan or Sergelgatan down to Sergels Torg square and the prestigious Gallerian shopping mall. If you want culture, head south along Drottninggatan, via Kulturhuset cultural center, the Swedish House of Parliament, Royal Palace, and continue to the Old Town (Gamla Stan), some 10 minutes’ walk away. You can get to many of Stockholm's major theaters within a few minutes, and as well as the historical Centralbadet spa with its health center and gym. Tickets to a wide range of sightseeing tours are available from reception. The Filmstaden Sergel multiplex is just 50 m from the Hotel, on the same site as Hötorgshallen, an amazing indoor market right, which is a must-see.

“Fantastic Location!”
We stayed at the hotel in August. I was a bit concerned about how the hotel would be, as I had booked it for my parents and my husband and I , it was all down to me!.There had a been a few negative reveiws saying about room size etc but we were alll pleasantly surprised! Fantastic rooms, great breakfast, lovely veiws over the market, and a very reasonable price!The location is great as you can walk to almost all the sights. Would definitely go back and recommend friends.Food hall over the road is great.A fantastic holiday!
“Very satisfied”
A quiet, no-frills hotel with tiny rooms in an excellent mid-town position, one minute walk from the subway, cinema, shops and restaurants, with taxis passing frequently. The vacuum toilets are a bit of a shock, though! At this price in Stockholm, what more could you ask for?
“Will certainly go back”
I upgraded my room after the first night and was delighted with the upgrade and the service and attention I received from all the staff I came into contact with. The breakfast times were excellent for someone on holiday and the choice and variety of food both interesting and international. I would certainly return to the Hotel Rica - Kungsgarten!
“would go back in an instant”
Small room but well designed and comfortable. Great breakfast. Great location. Friendly and efficient staff.
“Comfortable clean and modern”
Quiet comfortable and clean yet in a central location. Excellent buffet breakfast (until 11am at weekends) with the healthy herring/salmon option as well as the usual fry up. Even vitamin supplements/omega 3 capsules on offer. Excellent value for money if you get an online deal. Cannot say that of many things in Sweden.
“An excellent hotel to explore Stockholm”
The hotel is conveniently located near the train station and within walking distance from the historical area and in the middle of the shopping district. Breakfast buffet was included with our room and it was impressive. Wi-fi was also included. Staff is helpful and we got upgraded to a better room. We would go back to this hotel.
“Excellent centrally located hotel”
I stayed in the Rica Kungsgatan for four days in spring 2008. The hotel was excellent, with good service, clean comfortable room and an extremely good breakfast buffet. The location is ideal for business or tourism. It does not have a lot of ambiance, though. I would characterize the feeling of the place as efficient and comfortable rather than "warm" or "cozy". So although I would not pick this hotel for a honeymoon, in all other respects I highly recommend it.
“Amazing Breakfast!”
Great location--a very easy walk (<0.25 miles) to major train and subway stations. The staff was courteous and provided great recommendations and reservation info. The best part of the hotel was the amazing breakfast! It was a huge spread of just about every breakfast food type you could imagine. Affordable, clean, stylish and in a great location.
“Great location!”
The hotel is in a great area. Lots of places to shop and eat. The breakfast was good with lots of variety.
“Fit to your needs!”
It is smart hotel. Compact but satisfies your needs fully. Staff is also very keen to your needs and smart. Efficient hotel. I recommend to you!
