If your flight is landing at Bromma Stockholm Airport (BMA), look for yellow or black taxis with roof signs (some have black and white shades) at the arrival hall, on the right-hand side. If you have pre-booked a taxi ride, you will find the driver waiting next to the car rental parking lots. Although taxi fares are fixed, you can always ask for a discount. A bus transfer is the cheapest form of transport. You just buy a ticket to the central station (about 2 miles to Hotel Rival). The Flygbussarna coach is punctual and more reliable; boarding is on the left-hand side of the arrival hall. If arriving through Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ARN), use the Arlanda Express airport train.
