WHERE TO STAY. STOCKHOLM

Early 20th century townhouses with bags of charm in central Stockholm. Specifically designed by the owners to feel like a home rather than a hotel, Ett Hem provides just 25 stylish rooms and suites. It is not a typical hotel - it is a place that allows the guest to become part of it, a place where guests are treated as friends of the family. Superbly comfortable rooms, a relaxation room, gym, library, sitting room and a lunch and dinner menu enhance the low-key, yet elegant ambiance. All the rooms at Ett Hem possess a warm feel with a sophisticated blend of contemporary and vintage materials such as cane, wood, leather and velvet in gold, brown and cream tones. With a garden to enjoy the summer sun and vases filled with flowers, warming fires in winter and works of art adorning the walls, the atmosphere is both relaxing and homely. etthem.se

The hotel is set directly on Stockholm's scenic waterfront and uses the historic Old Town as its picturesque and telling backdrop.

During the turn of the 19th century, Brunkebergstorg was once the meeting grounds for Stockholms high society and cultural elite. With the foundation of Hotel At Six, the square on which it stands has regained its former prominence.

Hotel At Six offers 343 rooms in central Stockholm.

In the middle of Stockholm city, in historic buildings from 1699 is the beautiful Hotel Skeppsholmen. The two longhouses that house the hotel today were built from reused material from buildings and ruins around Sweden that for one reason or another were no longer in use. As early as 1699, the foundation was thus laid for the vision I want to create today, where sustainability is the focus. In 2009, the historic buildings had been carefully converted into hotels. Together with Stockholm-based architects Claesson Koivisto Rune, a refuge for all senses was created. With a beautiful location at the water's edge and a view of Stockholm, the hotel has a thoroughly Swedish concept in food, design, music and fashion.

In one of Stockholm’s most influential Art Nouveau buildings we’ve had the amazing opportunity to use all of our enthusiasm and creativity in order to create Miss Clara. Our great location in the heart of Stockholm offers endless possibilities for you to explore the many great restaurants, exciting bars, shopping gems and hidden corners of this capital. We’ve always felt that the number one thing of a fabulous hotel experience is the actual presence of an experience – you know that feeling when the front desk staff knows your name without consulting their computer, or when the bartender asks how you’re doing, not because she is trying to be polite but because she actually cares. Our ambition has been to create an urban design hotel and spice it up with a more continental approach to service and social interaction. We think we did quite well. missclarahotel.com

A hospitality group based in Stockholm and New York will breathe new life into the historic building located at Björngårdsgatan 23, re-opening it as “Stockholm Stadshotell”. It will include 32 rooms and suites, two restaurants, a bar, guest lounge and a courtyard / garden restaurant.

The landmark building, which dates back to 1870, was acquired by Vasaparken in 2019 and is being carefully restored in close collaboration with the Stockholm Stadshotell team. Located in the Södermalm neighborhood of Stockholm, the building was commissioned by Queen Josephina as a tribute to the memory of King Oscar I. Due to its significant cultural and historical importance, the building has been awarded the highest form of building maintenance protection.

Stockholm Stadshotell and its restaurants are owned and operated by Johan Agrell, Fredrik Carlström, Dan Källström, Jon Lacotte, and Ian Nicholson. This team has decades of diverse and international experience and past projects include some of the world’s most iconic hotels such as The Mercer, Chateau Marmont, Soho Grand, The Standard, and Faena. They are also behind Alma, the much lauded members' club and co-working space, Austere, a hybrid design gallery and showroom located in Los Angeles and New York, and renowned restaurants Fäviken and Frantzén as well as several of Stockholm's most beloved neighborhood restaurants, including Restaurang Babette, Schmaltz, Tengu and Café Nizza, located just a short walk from the new hotel. stockholmstadshotell.com

To add to this, several of our dishes are finalized at the table and presented on serving carts. For lunch and dinner, guests can choose from a large à la carte menu as well as a Plat du Jour for lunch.
