Excellent Property and Service
Best hotel of any I have stayed in in last three years. Cleanliness is impeccable and room las large with clean carpeting. Centrally located and near the Silja ferry dock. I was asked if I would be having breakfast in the morning I said I had an early flight and they said they would pack me something to take and the next morning they remembered! Never had such excellent service.

We had a great stay. Concert at the venue and stayed at the hotel. Had not visited before. It turned out to be an abosulutely memorable concert and stay. Friendly, clean, cozy, great selections of food and beverage. All in all a great place for a stay - especially combined with a concert. I will give Rival my highest recommondations.

Rival was ridiculously good
The staff at Rival are the BEST. Friendly, professional and very attentive. The hotel is centrally located and perfectly appointed. Breakfast was delicious. The Bistro was the only let down, both service and food were a little disappointing. We upgraded to a suite and it was fantastic. Spacious and very comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Rival. Shout out to ALL at reception- Michelle, Joel were standouts.
Julie, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely supportive staff. Good breakfast. Very happy with room. Communal areas in floor 4 need work. Heavily stained carpet. Looks like there’s been a flood or big spills without the carpet being cleaned or changed.
