Posted in News on 27 March, 2020

In early March, Sweden welcomed its first AC Hotel by Marriott in the area of Ulriksdal, Stockholm. The impressive 10,000 square metre property is a major addition to the peaceful district and aims to attract both international and local travelers. Through purposeful design and refined details, the four star hotel’s interior embodies modern elegance reflective of the city of Stockholm and the AC Marriott brand. The contemporary design throughout the project is a homage to the vivid history and roots of Ulriksdal intermingled with present day comforts. 

Upon entering the double height lobby, visitors are greeted by a grand reception and lounge. Guests are directed towards the reception area with a striking feature back wall and illuminated pods. Located at the corner of the lounge is a modern bar where signature cocktails and beverages can be enjoyed. As the space transitions into a cozy restaurant, a beautiful open kitchen is revealed in creating intrigue and interaction between guests and staff. At the restaurant, patrons can enjoy the delicious morning breakfast buffet as well as the signature PicPoc restaurant offering traditional Swedish cuisine with Spanish influences. As these different areas are all open and interconnected, a consistent and refined design language is carried throughout to create a cohesive narrative. Hotel guests will have complimentary access to the adequately equipped indoor gym and fitness areas. As well as the opportunity to revitalize at the spacious wellness areas with a swimming pool, jacuzzi, and sauna rooms. 

The AC Hotel is located adjacent to Ulriksdal train station and bus stop, allowing for extremely easy travel for all guests. The property is only 10 minutes from the capital’s centre and 30 minutes from the city’s main airport, Arlanda Stockholm. With the hotel’s convenient location, it is an excellent venue for all meetings and events. Five different event rooms are available to cater to any occasion with a maximum capacity of 110. Each event room has essential meeting equipment including a television, writable surfaces, and coffee station. The meeting spaces have a modern and versatile design solution to provide flexibility and collaboration. 

After a long day of travel, guests can relax in one of the 223 hotel guest rooms and suites. Each guestroom features a quality bed with a signature headboard, accessible open wardrobe, flat-screen television, coffee machine, as well as minibar access. Accompanying each room is a modern bathroom with a sleek vanity, illuminated mirror, and spacious shower. The serene and contemporary design of the rooms allow for guests to have optimal comfort, convenience, and productivity. 

The thoughtful interior design of AC Hotel by Marriott Stockholm Ulriksdal strays from traditional Scandinavian design and integrates urban flair and sophistication. The hotel provides a refreshingly new perspective and experience for all Stockholm travellers.
