Frösö Park Hotel: Wind down in your own way at a mythical getaway

Amix between relaxation and pulse, this must be the perfect combination for a weekend getaway, right? Only 15 minutes away from the nearest city Östersund is Frösö Park Hotel, a spa experience complete with accommodation, dining and history.

Historically, the small island Frösön was used as a military base and later an airbase for the Jämtland Wing in the Swedish Airforce – hence the fighter jets decorating the perimeter. And even further back, political decisions were made here for the future of the district.

When you step inside, Frösö Park Hotel welcomes you to a Jämtland inspired experience. A gorgeous view of the surrounding mountains Oviksfjällen, art from local creators and artists, a dozen meeting rooms for corporate conferences and 139 hotel rooms. Not to mention the spa area, taking inspiration from Jämtland county with its soothing and mythical Scandinavian nature.

“It’s important for us to give our guests a place to relax and disconnect, be it yoga, exercise, inspiration and ways to be activated outdoors,” says content manager Michaela Scherman. “We have bicycles, paddle boards, all sorts of ways for you to find relaxation.” A popular addition this season are two electric bicycles available for hotel guests to rent. “They are a little sportier and perfect for cycling around the headland Bynäset, or the nature trails.” After your e-bike outing, you’re welcome in for a yoga session. This is particularly popular for people working in the area but everyone is welcome.

The key words are pulse and pause – to find relaxation in your own way, as explained by Scherman. “Some of us need to wind down in order to find relaxation, others relax through pulse-raising activities, which is why we offer both for our guests,” she adds. “It’s important for us that the spa is calm and not just a Jacuzzi and sauna for you to have a drink. For example, we always recommend that you wash first, tvaga in Swedish. Everything in the spa has taken inspiration from Jämtland’s surrounding nature.”

When you have seen the sights, had a yoga session and experienced the spa, it’s time to eat. At Frösö Park Hotel’s own restaurant, KAVA, you will be served top-class cuisine. And, there is a spa menu, an à la carte, a lunch menu and a bar, when it’s time to call it a stay.
