Villa Dagmar Stockholm Sweden hotel

STAY

Villa Dagmar

With its 70 rooms and suites, Villa Dagmar in central Stockholm is a large little sister to nearby Diplomat Hotel. The location as well as great food makes this a great choice for an autumn break. The restaurant is run in close collaboration with the duo behind 2 Michelin-starred restaurant Aloë, Niclas Jönsson & Daniel Höglander. With a great selection of fresh ingredients the breakfast is worth returning for.

Ett Hem Stockholm Sweden hotel

Ett Hem

Originally opened in 2012, luxury hotel Ett Hem designed by Studioilse, has grown to become a destination in itself. Now it’s time for a new chapter. After two years of respectfully refurbishing and curating two adjacent townhouses next to the original hotel, the result is ten new stunning guest rooms, living rooms, private dining rooms and a resident’s lounge. What’s most notable? Nothing feels new – instead, each and every detail feels so connected to Ett Hem.

ART

Nationalmuseum

After five years of major renovations, Nationalmuseum opened its doors in 2018. Three times as many objects can now be displayed from the museum’s collection of art and design from the Middle Ages to today, and there is room for twice as many visitors. One of the absolute highlights includes the library which has been given an entirely new look by Swedish designer Emma Olbers.
