A major milestone was reached this past weekend in the Nordic region’s largest urban development project, Älvstaden, when Scandic Göteborg Central opened.
With 451 rooms, 1,225 beds, event space for up to 1,000 people and largest rooftop terrace offering a panoramic view of the river, the hotel will be among the biggest in Gothenburg.
The new hotel will be strategically located at the southern abutment of the new Hisingsbron bridge, just a couple hundred meters from Gothenburg Central Station. Thanks to its ideal placement, the vibe of the city and harbour area will flow through the glass-covered facade and spacious lobby, all the way up to the rooftop terrace and Above restaurant, the hotel’s hidden ace on the fourteenth floor.
At Above, Gothenburg will meet Miami’s melting pot in both the decor and playful food and drinks menu where much-loved classics like the city’s famous shrimp sandwich are reinvented and paired with cocktails. The panoramic terrace is partially weather protected, which means that hotel, bar and restaurant guests will be able to enjoy the spectacular view and vibrant atmosphere at the green rooftop oasis all year round.
The 60,000sq m property will be used by hotel guests, office workers and Gothenburgers alike, accommodating up to 6,000 people per day.
