We've Been Celebrating Christmas Since 1874 - And Know How To Make It Special @GrandHotelSthlm

CHRISTMAS SMÖRGÅSBORD THREE WAYS

There’s something exceptional about the Grand Hôtel’s traditional Christmas smörgåsbord. The question is how to savour it best? Perhaps while enjoying our Happy Holidays Christmas Show – starring Sarah Dawn Finer, Rennie Mirro and Karl Dyall? Or at the Veranda restaurant, where a sumptuous Christmas smörgåsbord is served up from November 30th? A third alternative for parties of 25 hosting an event at one of our banquet rooms is to order our Christmas smörgåsbord as a banquet menu. And the perfect libation to accompany all three is our very own snaps, 1874 Grand Aquavit, spiced with cumin, anise and fennel. Merry Christmas!

GIFT CARDS FOR ALL

There’s a perfect Grand Hôtel experience for everyone. Make a loved one or friend really happy this Christmas with a gift card for Afternoon Tea in the Cadier Bar, a soothing spa treatment, dinner for two, or just a little token of luxury to enjoy. Fabulously festive!

ALL DRESSED UP FOR CHRISTMAS

We’re busy decking the halls for the Holiday Season. This year the lobby is looking particularly festive, with new white marbling on the walls. We’ve also switched over to LED lighting – twice as nice with its ambient lighting and environmental benefits. Stop by and see for yourself. The Cadier Bar has stocked up on exceptionally divine mulled wine this year.
