LUXURY AFLOAT
Prince van Orangien
Built in 1935, this unique boat accommodation
has been lovingly restored to preserve its authentic
heritage. The boat is super luxurious with decadent
vintage furniture and furnishings of marble and dark
wood, and even a claw-foot bath. Cabins are elegant
and cosy, some with decks and all with water views,
of course.

TRADITIONAL GLAM
Grand Hotel
Lavishly decorated and a favourite with celebrities,
the Grand Hotel is, well, grand. Plush rooms complete
with silk robes and fresh flowers are complemented
by top-notch dining and bar options. Don’t miss
the Nordic Bathing Ritual at its Nordic Spa and
Fitness centre.

DESIGNER DIGS

Opened in 2017, this art and design hotel has a
contemporary Nordic flair. Architects from Universal
Design Studio worked with art curator Sune Nordgren
to put the hotel’s art collection front and centre.
Expect rooms with a pared back, sophisticated feel.

OAXEN KROG & OAXEN SLIP

Owners Agneta Green and Magnus Ek have a long and

wonderful gastronomic presence in Stockholm. First

opening a restaurant in 1994 on Oaxen in the Stockholm

archipelago, the duo is a magnetic force

on the restaurant scene. They have

truly honed everything to

perfection – from the food

to the décor and the service.

Their original restaurant

earned global recognition,

being listed as one of the

world’s 50 best restaurants

for five years in a row. Oaxen’s

current incarnation, which opened

in 2013, includes Michelin-starred Oaxen

Krog for fine dining, and the adjoining, more casual

Oaxen Slip – plus the private Club Room. The impressive

establishment boasts a tranquil waterfront location on

leafy Djurgården. At Oaxen, sustainability is at the fore

and produce truly shines, with many of the ingredients

grown at a nearby farm

plot on the island and

lovingly picked, prepared,

cooked and placed in

thoughtful, delicious

and impressive dishes.

Don’t miss this welcoming

and unforgettable

dining experience.

LOCAL LOVE

The main shopping area in Stockholm is
Drottninggatan. Head to Östermalm for high-end
labels and classy boutiques (plus plenty of up-market
bars and eateries). The pedestrian-only street
Biblioteksgatan sometimes even rolls out a red
carpet for its fashion-loving shoppers. Stock up
on high-quality local designer fashion from labels
such as Filippa K, WHYRED, Brixtol and Acne. For
suitcase-sized Scandi design pieces for the home,
check out Designtorget and Iris Hantverk, dotted
throughout the city in multiple locations. »
