Hotel Ruth, WorldHotels Crafted

ruth reached out before arrival with restaurant recommendations, which was already a nice surprise. the conversation was super natural and smooth - they answered all my questions, gave personalized suggestions, and that's when i casually mentioned my room preferences: something near the elevator for my parents because my mom has health issues and can't walk long distances, and for us, a room with a bathtub - i'd seen one in their photos and fell in love, but didn't realize those were only in upgraded rooms. when we arrived, everything had actually been sorted. shocking, right? the reception staff were lovely - efficient, genuinely helpful, and clearly paying attention. we got early check-in, my parents got that elevator-side room (cue my massive relief - my mom could move around comfortably), and we discovered they'd upgraded us to get that bathtub i'd dreamed about. beautiful, spacious room that felt like someone thoughtful had designed it. breakfast completely exceeded expectations. we're a very specific crew with wildly different dietary needs - i'm vegetarian, my boyfriend avoids dairy, my dad only trusts food he makes himself, and my mom is the only normal human in our group. somehow everyone found something they loved and left satisfied. genuinely impressive feat. what struck me most was how the staff connected all these dots without making it feel like a big deal. they didn't just say "we'll see what we can do" - they actually made it happen, naturally and smoothly. after day two, i wrote in my journal that ruth feels like home but 2.0 and with a breakfast that doesn't make me sad. already planning my return to stockholm and to ruth. thank you to everyone who made this feel so personal and effortless.

From the moment I arrived in the early hours of the morning until the moment I left in the early hours of another morning I felt completely looked after and even a bit pampered. The staff were lovely, my room was cozy and quiet, and the breakfast was delicious. The location was fantastic for me. There were restaurants and cute shops as well as the city within walking distance. I walked into Gamla Stan and the museums area from the hotel too. I loved the little touches like a comfortable foyer area to sit and enjoy a coffee, cold water, and little snacks in between excursions during the day or for a glass of wine at the end of the evening. Just a gorgeous little hotel. Beautifully decorated.

Everyone on the staff seemed to be genuinely in a good mood and happy at work ; accomodating and helpful- full points for service. The hotel breakfast was the best in a long time : a very large variety of options, special diets were taken care of and there was newly baked warm bread and croissants available. I appreciated the cake table with sparkling drinks at the end of our breakfast. There was glutenfree delicious cake, too - supernice for me! The location is not in the core core center of the city but I did not mind because the area was nice and quiet; and only a few metro stops from T-Centralen /Arland Expressen. Nearby was a good Lebanese restaurant called Byblos that I also recommend. I liked the interior decorating of the hotel as well. The beds were super comfy, of high quality and great to sleep in.

From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted by the wonderful receptionists, and the surprise welcome drink and letter for my parents left me speechless. They were overjoyed and in tears . I, their daughter , planned this Scandinavian trip for my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary. Stockholm was our final stop and Ruth hotel was by far the best hotel we stayed in past 2 weeks! I myself travel a lot for work and have stayed many hotels but the quality of the breakfast is amazing too. 10 points out of 10 is not enough.

The breakfast was exceptional with a great variety of different foods and beverages on offer. The staff were friendly and helpful and rooms spotlessly clean.The hotel is in a great location and has a lovely atmosphere. Would recommend.
