At the far end of the pier in the climate-smart district of Oceanhamnen, Scandic is pleased to announce the opening of its second hotel in Helsingborg, Scandic Oceanhamnen.
The hotel, which has 184 rooms on 13 floors as well as a relaxation area and rooftop terrace, is located on the waterfront overlooking the Öresund sound. Scandic Oceanhamnen has been designed according to the Sweden Green Building Council Gold standard and has been certified by the Nordic Swan Ecolabel, the official ecolabel of the Nordic countries.
Scandic Oceanhamnen became a new landmark in Helsingborg. Located at the end of the quay in the new climate-smart Oceanhamnen district, Scandic Oceanhamnen is nestled in a rapidly growing residential and commercial area just minutes from the city centre. The hotel is also strategically located next to where the electric ferries operate between Helsingborg and Helsingør, strengthening Helsingborg as a hub in southern Sweden.
The hotel is ecolabelled according to the Nordic Swan Ecolabel’s tough new criteria where, among other things, ecolabelled products and chemicals, 100 percent renewable electricity, absence of single-use packaging, low water consumption and a food & beverage offering with sustainability in focus provided the basis for certification.
The restaurant features locally produced seasonal ingredients and items on the menu are available as half and full portions to reduce food waste. The climate impact of each dish is provided. All wine and beer served in the hotel is organic, with much on tap to reduce use of bottles and cans.
