The tiny island of Skeppsholmen is a peaceful oasis just across a bridge from bustling downtown Stockholm. Once home to a naval base, the island now hosts two Stockholm institutions: Moderna Museet, the city’s museum for contemporary and modern art, and Hotel Skeppsholmen. With a building dating from 1699—formerly barracks for the Swedish navy—and interiors designed by Stockholm architecture firm Claesson Koivisto Rune, Hotel Skeppsholmen is a master class in the fusion of old and new. Just a 10-minute walk from central Stockholm, the hotel is also easily reached by boat, bus or car. — Hotel Skeppsholmen Gröna Gången 1 11186 Stockholm Sweden TwitterFacebookPinterest Related Stories Plein Air Café Drawing from the impressionist ideal of painting outdoors, partners Soo Choi and Kevin Heisner have made Chicago's Plein Air Café a dreamy space.
