See the sights of enchanting spa town Varberg from the oldest hotel in the city with a quirky spa, including breakfast and spa access.

  • Old-world wonder: Old-world opulence meets modern style at Hotell Gästis, the oldest hotel in the enchanting town of Varberg. Showcasing a stylish spa, fine dining and a suite of sumptuous rooms draped in swathes of velvet, this luxe pad expertly combines historic allure with a sprinkling of 21st-century finesse. Unsurprisingly, it’s the proud owner of a 2020 Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice award.

  • Sumptuous dining: Wake up early and be first in line to tuck into the hotel’s famously generous breakfast buffet as you browse the morning papers. For lunch or dinner, head to brand-new restaurant Gästis Kafé & Matsalar, a certified dining hotspot, serving a blend of traditional Swedish eats paired with fine wines from around the world.

  • Iconic spa setting: Housed in the hotel’s old cellar vaults, The Lenin Spa is a unique place to while away a few restful hours. Decked out in 75,000 royal blue tiles, this homage to Lenin’s favourite spa blends Art Deco design with centuries-old antiques for an authentic yet inviting feel. Flit between the relaxation and treatment rooms and emerge feeling totally restored.

Varberg

Sprinkled with spas, seasides and cycle-friendly scenery, Varbergs’ calling card is undoubtedly relaxation. With a wellness-conscious history dating back to the 19th century, this enchanting little town has secured its place as Sweden’s primary health resort, complete with nature walks, spa hotels and more outdoor pursuits than you can shake a cinnamon bun at.

When you’re not unwinding in the hotel’s blue-hued spa, take a dip in the warm waters of the iconic Kallbadhuset, get a taste of local history at the fascinating Varberg Fortress, shop for souvenirs at the twice-weekly market on Main Square or simply wander the 2.5-kilometre long promenade as you drink in your coastal surroundings. If you’re feeling brave, join the locals and brace the water for a circulation-boosting dip.
