ETT HEM

Stockholm, Sweden

Overview

Ett Hem, translating to "a home" in Swedish, is one of Stockholm's most intimate luxury retreats: a beautifully curated private townhouse where you are invited to live, not merely stay.

Key Features

  • Tucked within one of Stockholm's peaceful residential neighbourhoods, Lärkstaden, the property sits just moments from the boutiques of Östermalm and the cobbled lanes of Gamla Stan.
  • With individually designed rooms and suites spread across three floors, each space is a wholly original creation, recognised globally as offering an exceptionally special stay in the capital city.
  • A dedicated yoga shala, daily classes, and an on-demand menu of massages, facials, hammam, and Pilates sit alongside a kitchen serving exquisite seasonal lunches and dinners, and a secret courtyard garden for al fresco moments.
  • A commitment to restraint and reverence runs through every detail, from a kitchen built on strictly sourcing only local ingredients, to rooftop beehives, and original period architecture lovingly preserved rather than replaced.

Location

Discreetly positioned in one of Stockholm's most peaceful and prestigious residential neighbourhoods, Ett Hem sits away from the tourist bustle yet within effortless reach of everything the Swedish capital has to offer. Stroll to the elegant boutiques and galleries of Östermalm, explore the cobbled lanes of Gamla Stan, or take to the water on Stockholm's celebrated archipelago, all within minutes. The city's cultural institutions, acclaimed dining scene, and design heritage are yours to discover yet the moment you pass through Ett Hem's gate, the city fades gracefully into the background.

Design

Built in 1910 and steeped in the Scandinavian Arts and Crafts tradition, Ett Hem is a testament to the enduring belief that beauty and function are inseparable. Interior designer Ilse Crawford has treated each of the 22 rooms and suites not only as a hotel space to be decorated, but as a life to be inhabited. Handcrafted furniture sits alongside heirloom objects, original artworks, and materials chosen for their texture and story. Natural light filters through original windows, warming rooms that feel simultaneously timeless and alive.

Activities

Begin the morning with a private yoga session in the dedicated shala or a bespoke wellness treatment, from hammam and facials to deep-tissue massage and Pilates. Step into the secret courtyard garden for a leisurely breakfast or an afternoon respite. The kitchen is the jewel of the house, where an ever-changing seasonal menu celebrates the best of Swedish produce at lunch and dinner. The entire property can also be exclusively hired for private dinners, receptions, and business gatherings, with the full culinary team and sommelier entirely at your disposal.

Sustainability

Ett Hem's approach to sustainability is rooted in thoughtful, long-term stewardship rather than grand gestures. The kitchen operates on a strict seasonal and local sourcing philosophy, celebrating Swedish producers and minimising food miles with every menu. Rooftop beehives supply the house with its own honey, a quiet symbol of the property's commitment to nurturing its environment. Furnishings are selected for their craftsmanship, and original period architecture has been preserved and restored rather than replaced, embodying one of the more sustainable forms of construction.

Why we love it

Ett Hem achieves something charming: it makes you forget entirely that you are anywhere other than home. A stay here in this Stockholm townhouse, complete with a team devoted to your every comfort and a distinctly Swedish ethos, encompasses the best of Scandinavian hospitality.
