Room Request! Hotel Victory

Tucked into the narrow, winding streets of Gamla Stan, the small island of Stockholm’s urban archipelago known as the “Old Town,” Victory Hotel[1] is easy to miss. Its subtle stonework and humbleness is exactly what makes it easy to love—a positively Swedish culture that let’s its design and hospitality do all the talking for it. The hotel boasts a thorough nautical design, reflecting the history of Stockholm[2] as a leading port for the continent centuries ago. Those looking to travel in style though know that the hotel is perfect for anyone looking to balance the history of the city with the modern amenities that make it so enviable to today’s trendsetters. To find out more about the hotel, DuJour caught up with the hotel’s Johanna Olsson.

What’s your personal favorite room?

Captain Johansson’s Suite is filled with vintage rugs and plush amenities that only the captain would have afforded himself in ship that inspired the hotel’s design. Today, it’s popular for hosting wedding parties or guests for a special occasion.
