Subterranean spa oasis
A modern Vasastan city stay hiding an expansive bathhouse beneath its ground-floor restaurants and pubs.
What it’s good at
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Pastel apartment blocks line the surrounding Vasastan avenues, with Odenplan station an easy walk away.
The rooms
Bedrooms follow classic Scandinavian design, pairing clean lines with quiet, muted tones.
The indoor pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Daybeds flank the heated indoor pool, where built-in hydromassage jets bubble against textured stone walls.
Sauna and steam
Glass doors open to dry and steam saunas, alongside an aroma room and a fireside relaxation lounge.
Gym and spa
Beyond the treatment rooms, a 300-square-meter gym includes cardio equipment, free weights, and a dedicated yoga space.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Panza
Panza serves fresh pasta beneath mirrored ceilings, centered around a curved marble bar for evening drinks.
At the table
The Bishops Arms pours single-malt whiskies amid wood-paneled walls, alongside morning Swedish buffets and a relaxed lobby bistro.
How it began
The underground spa level was originally built in 1958 as a Mercedes-Benz car showroom.

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.

A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene

Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
